Favorite Videos

There were a lot of cute, fun and educational videos, but two stood out as my favorites.




I love dressing up, my closet is full of RenFaire garb and I've done some anime 'cosplay' as well. Steam punk as a genre intrigues me, and I love Steve's outfit and the creativeness of this idea.

The second video I really enjoyed was the "Do you want a treat video?" seen here. I love cats and this video shows just one of the reasons why.

Rochester Children's Book Festival

This weekend I attended the Rochester Children's Book Festival. The following video is a sort of travelogue of the experience. It combines video and still pictures. I took some other videos of the trip, but they did not come out well.

The trip itself was a lot of fun, even though I had to wake up at 4:30 am Saturday to drive to Rochester, stayed over at a hotel and didn't get home till this evening.

Note: There is a mistake in the audio. I am not actually in the picture with Paul Zelinsky.

Strong Female Characters for Girls

This little video was inspired by a presentation I did for my materials for children class. I believe that for girls to be 'strong' (however you want to define that) they need to see, read and hear stories with active, witty and strong female characters. I love fairy tales, but sometimes I need stories where the Princess rescues the Prince from the dragon.
