Check out these videos--two views of mothers and the work they do. The first one, The Mom's Overture, a compendium of the things mothers say in a day set to music, has been getting a reasonable amount of circulation, so you may have seen it already; the second is a totally funny parody of British police dramas--think Helen Mirren with a daycare crisis (thanks to my sister for this one):
The Little Bookroom
- The Little Bookroom is a place for children, families, and books. Each day of the week, I'll try to address different groups of children: Mondays are devoted to babies and toddlers, Tuesdays to preschoolers, Wednesdays to children in the lower elementary grades, and Thursdays to children in the upper elementary grades. Fridays are days for digressions and observations, of children's games and conversations, of women's work, of imagination and memory.
