The truth is, although I’ve been working in children’s media for (gulp) over 20 years, I still have a million questions about what actually works for the preschool set. I was also asked once, “What have you learned from Blue’s Clues, Super Why & Daniel Tiger that helps you with being a better mom?”  I thought, what an awesome question! This blog is my search to answer those questions and share what I’ve learned over the years.
