I've written about Angelina Ballerina a bunch of times on this blog.  My daughter was obsessed with her when she was 3, 4, maybe even 5.  When she left that phase (she's 7 now), I was kind of sad myself.  The sweet, innocent mouse introduced my daughter to ballet.  Her books taught her valuable lessons and morals.  Even though we have moved on, I am very keen on the Kids Club 13vent we are going to this Sunday at the Brooklyn Children's Museum.  I am sure that the experience will move my daughter to think fondly back on dressing up in tutus and … [Read more...]

This  past weekend we paid a visit to the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum in New York City as part of my involvement the Kids Club 13.   We had never been to the Intrepid, but it was definitely on our list of things to do, so we were thrilled it was on Kid's Club 13's agenda.  Not only does my son love anything that flies, but he wants to be an airplane pilot (as well as a helicopter pilot).  As soon as we wandered into the Intrepid, he was in his element. The museum has a new section called the Exploreum to teach kids about the inner workings … [Read more...]

This past Sunday, we, along with forty Kids Club Thirteen members, were treated to a unique afternoon at the Noguchi Museum in Long Island City, Queens.  It's a very special place, actually the first and only museum in the country to be founded by an artist during his lifetime.  The collection focuses on Iasamu Noguchi's extensive productions.  As part of the PBS Kids team, the kids created a Bendaroos art sculpture and participated in a treasure hunt around the museum.  I had never been to the Noguchi Museum before and it was quite an incredible … [Read more...]
