February Fun
Happy February, ScribbleFriends! I’ve been reading about sharks and boy, are they cool. Sharks have been around for hundreds of millions of years. But even though they’ve been around longer than people, longer than trees – they were even around before the dinosaurs – scientists still don’t know too much about them. That could be […]
January Fun
Happy January, ScribbleFriends! Have you ever gone on a sound hunt? Usually we hunt with our eyes to find things, but our teacher, Ms. Tinge, had my class hunting with our ears for sounds this week. I never knew there were so many sounds! What? Just kidding. For our homework, each of us listed any […]
With a Smile (It’s Christmastime)
I’m a big fan of kindness. With a Smile (It’s Christmastime) is a reworking of a tune that originally appeared on the award-winning Songs With No Character. Jayne, Joyce and I were putting together a Christmas set and Jayne suggested the song could work with the other holiday songs. Changing the words “It’s pretty neat” to “It’s […]
December Fun
Happy December, ScribbleFriends! I want to teach you a new game my friends and I have been playing. It’s called “Once You Spy it, Sit and Be Quiet.” One of us takes a small toy (we all see what it is) and puts it somewhere in plain view while the rest of us are out […]
This or Coal?
Our holiday songs are some of my ScribbleMonster favorites. They were always crafted like a homemade gift. We never really did anything with them other than share them with family and friends – and break them out here each December. To me, that adds to the holiday spirit of it all. Sprinkle in some bits […]
November Fun
Happy November, ScribbleFriends! Thanksgiving Day is one of my favorite holidays. It’s a simple day, not too flashy like most of the other holidays, and everything about the day makes a lot of sense. Thanksgiving is a special day for us to give thanks for all we have. That’s why it’s called Thanksgiving. Get it? […]
Wimee’s Words LIVE! on TV
Wimee’s Words LIVE! airs, well, live, every Friday at 12:30 pm on WGVU. From the start our goal has been to create a television show that is collaborative and interactive, like say, an in-person ScribbleMonster program. Like a gameshow, you can always play along with any episode (watch past seasons of Wimee’s Words at https://www.pbs.org/show/wimees-words) […]
October Fun
Happy October, ScribbleFriends! I want a dog. Actually, I really want a monkey, but my dad says that will never happen. ScribblePiggy has a horse, ScribbleBunny has a pet turtle and ScribbleKitty has a parakeet. I have a pet rock that used to be my dad’s. Pet rocks aren’t much fun. Apparently, monkeys don’t make […]
LIVE Interactive Television
So imagine you’re a kid, the puppet on the television screen asks you a question, you respond, and the puppet makes your idea part of the show. That’s what we’ve done with Wimee’s Words LIVE! – a first of its kind interactive TV show for kids and families. We quietly made history on Friday, September […]
September Fun
Happy September, ScribbleFriends! My friends and I started school again this week. It was fun to see all of my classmates and to hear about their absolutely horrible vacations. Well, everyone didn’t really have an absolutely horrible vacation. They just pretended that they did. Our teacher, Ms. Tinge, asked us to make up something awful […]
