Our Summer Song
The weather in Chicago that winter wasn’t remarkably cold or snowy, but I think we may have set a record for days without sunshine. It seemed to rain every day in April and we still hadn’t had much sun or warm weather. There was finally a beautiful, warm, sunny day mid-May. I dropped everything and […]
May Fun
Happy May, ScribbleFriends! I love the weather during May. In my state the weather is so nice and sunny. What is the weather like by you? May is the perfect time to ride bikes and play on the tire swing. Sometimes I don’t even need a jacket! What things do you like to do outside […]

April Fun
Happy April, ScribbleFriends! I want to start a new holiday this month. Here’s my idea: I’d like to have National Rhyme In Song Day. You would celebrate by rhyming everything you say, except you can’t SAY anything, you have to sing all day long! Wouldn’t that be fun? I mean, “It would be such fun […]
Good Morning, Little Children, Wake Up!
You know the joy of waking children in the morning? I needed to make it fun… for me. So it became part of my routine to happily flit from room to room, joyfully singing this song to my children. I would dance into the room, pull open the shades and sing to each of them […]
March Fun
Happy March, ScribbleFriends! Boy, was my dad mad at me last week! He said he was “disappointed” in my behavior, but he sure acted like he was mad. He said just because I am a monster is not a license to act like one. It all started because I refused to respond when a grown-up […]
What Do You Love?
Love is in the air! Or is that snow? This year’s Question of the Week: What do you love? We asked our esteemed panel of creative kids what they loved and you’ll never believe what they said! Actually, it’s all pretty believable, but our content director told us, “Be sure to lead with something like, […]
February Fun
Happy February, ScribbleFriends! Each February 2nd is Groundhog Day. Legend has it that if the groundhog sees their shadow on Groundhog Day, we’ll have six more weeks of winter weather. If they don’t see their shadow, better weather is just ahead! If you ask me, it should be called Sun Day or Cloud Day because […]
Night Owl and Early Bird
Night Owl and Early Bird is a little ditty about two birds who are very different, but are stronger and love each other very much because of those differences. Hmm… sound like any couple you know? For your listening consideration: Night Owl and Early Bird is now available just about everywhere music is streamed or sold. -Jim
January Fun
Happy New Year, ScribbleFriends! Did you do anything special to ring in the New Year? I did. I got to stay up past my bedtime and bang on pots and pans and yell “HAPPY NEW YEAR”! In my family we celebrate before midnight because my little sister and I would never be able to keep […]
