My six year old is playing soccer.  His team colour is gold.  He wants
his team to be called the Golden Age.  I wonder where he got that from.
He listens to the Oils all the time.  We wake up in the night to his CD
player playing the Golden Age.

Have anyone else's kids turned into little workers after watching the
20K RSL DVD?  My 8 year old was already a fan but is now pretty much
obsessed - picking up bits from the videos (Sample:  "Hey, Mom, that
song is Read About It and Peter's wearing a newspaper suit!  Get it?
You reeeeead a newwwwwwwspaperrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr?  Get it?") and reading
the lyric sheets from the CDs as the DVD plays.  The 4 year old,
formerly watching Harry Potter about eleventy-million times per month,
is now demanding "I want the Midnight Oils music" and sits there
fascinated, singing bits and pieces.

 

Now if only I could get them to give equal time to my Alan Rickman
movies, I wouldn't have a thing to wish for on the entertainment front.
