Not too worried about bedtime at the moment. When the kids asked to watch a few @josephsmachines #videos before reading tonight, we said, “Absolutely!” 🍅☂️ Video link in bio.

It’s taken me a few days to absorb what is happening around the world, and a few days more to better understand the facts and how we might share them with our #children.

Thank goodness for @tumblepodcast @brains_on and @vprnet’s #ButWhyPodcast for their informative #podcast episodes about #coronavirus #covid19 for #kids, as well as this @cbckidsnews #video about #socialdistancing. Link in bio. (Thank you, @blytheannebutler.) I’ll also be sending out a newsletter with additional resources for this impromptu #homeschooling experience. 😅 Sign up at TKSST.com if you’d like to receive it and our weekly emails with new videos.

If you know any #parents or #teachers who are scrambling to find educational activities and smarter entertainment for kids while they’re at home, please tag them below and share this post. 🌈🪐 When I started The Kid Should See This in 2011, I wanted to help adults discover the safer, smarter, and more meaningful #kidfriendly videos that are hidden in the wild west of YouTube. I never expected that over 4,000 videos later, TKSST.com might be needed in the way it is right now.
And thank you so much to everyone who has already shared TKSST. I’ve spent thousands of hours collecting videos that aren’t made specifically for children, but that can be meaningful to anyone of any age… stuff that I love watching and learning from with my kids. ...videos I’ll be watching with my kids for the next two weeks while they’re at home from school with me.

We’ll also be listening to a LOT of #podcasts. If you’re looking for smart and fun audio adventures, check out the wonderful people listed below, including our friends @brains_on and @tumblepodcast who both HUSTLED to create SMART and NOT SCARY #covid19 #coronavirus #podcast episodes for #kids this week. (Adults will feel better listening to them, too.) A few of the many we listen to: @brains_on @vprnet’s #butwhypodcast @andrewandpolly @noodleloafshow @pantsonfirecast @thepastandthecurious @rebelgirls @smashboombest @tumblepodcast @unspookablepodcast

You know that thing when you buy a box of cereal for the prize inside? My 9yo just did that with a jar of #honey. 🍯 🐝 Watch a few #honeycomb videos on TKSST.com. Link in bio.

This is one of my favorite new books: 🐋 Into the Deep: An Exploration of Our Oceans (link in bio) by @annika.siems and Wolfgang Dreyer, and I’m sure you can see why. 🐙🐟🦀 Its beautiful illustrations and informative paragraphs cover some of the most fascinating facts from these vast hidden worlds: From microscopic creatures to mysterious giants, from marine snow to whale fall, to animals that glow, camouflage, or seem invisible. 🌊 An impressive gift and a mystery-filled conversation-starter. 🦑 It’s in the TKSSTGiftGuide.com.

Our 9yo spent some allowance on this #PaperPups punch out and fold up activity book (link in bio), and both kids have been putting the 20 pups together. 🐶 They are sturdy! And they require no glue, tape, or tools. 🐕🐕‍🦺 Fun to pose and play with after they’re made, too. Yay for quiet, screen-free Sundays! 📘 Find Paper Pups in the TKSSTGiftGuide.com.

“They asked #KatherineJohnson for the moon, and she gave it to them. Wielding little more than a pencil, a slide rule and one of the finest mathematical minds in the country…”

These are the first lines of pioneering mathematician Katherine Johnson’s obituary in The New York Times today, February 24th, 2020. She was 101 years old.
🚀
I’ve added three videos to TKSST.com, from both @nasa and @libertysciencecenter, that celebrate her trailblazing work and legacy. Link in bio.

An action-filled #boardbook deserves action-filled images! 🍎⬇️ #Physics Animated (link in bio) is informative and fun thanks to sturdy levers and wheels throughout. 🚀 Gravity, mass, friction, centripetal force, inertia, and other laws of physics are introduced with easy-to-understand definitions and interactive bits! 🎢 Swings, rocket ships, rollercoasters, and more. An impression-maker for any 4-7 year old’s library. 📚 It’s in the TKSSTGiftGuide.com.
