Way to go, Bro!

I will be the first to admit: my girls are NOT normal girls!  They are totally into imaginary play, they memorize lines from TV and movies and rehearse them over and over, they can play “people” or “furniture” for hours, they love to have costumes on, etc.  But sometime in the fall they discovered a new obsession: WILD KRATTS!  Wild Kratts is a show on PBS that shows the adventures of two brothers who use the powers of different creatures to learn more about animals and to save some and how they live and thrive.  These adventures teach many interesting facts about animals and are pretty entertaining.

Since that day in the fall, our girls can be heard calling, “Way to go, Bro!” and other quips from the show.  They call each other Chris and Martin and pretend to go on the adventures as they do in the show.  I will sometimes call for the girls, but they will not come.  They will reply, “Don’t you mean you need your SONS to come?!” HA… they are constantly pretending and I don’t always know what character they will be!

For their birthdays, we added to the insanity by getting them each a Creature Power Suit (the costumes that the brothers wear on the show) along with 10 of the Creature Power Discs to go on their shirts!  As you will see… they were IN LOVE from the very beginning!

They each had a bag in the color of their Kratt Brother – Green for Chris and Blue for Martin!  (They picked up on that right when I gave them the bags!)

  2. I guess these means another generation of girls with no ballet or tap lessons - no cheerleading, etc. Way to go Wild Kratts! Nanna loves you "guys"!
