GREEN Christmas - Top 10 Funniest.

1. Grinch it. Bully a small dog into helping you steal Christmas only to give it back at the last minute. Sounds fun right?  You don't hafta wear pants and your heart will grow three sizes.


2. Envy. Simply covet thy neighbour's gifts!


3. Greenback. Buy a winning lottery ticket, for a change.


4. Zombie.  That dude you kissed under the mistletoe is now gnawing on your shoulder.


5. Nausea. Too much rich food will make you green around the gills.


6. Practical Presents. Wine probably fits into this category. It's not exactly environmental, but hey, it's wine. As The Huz says, "wouldn't you rather give your money to a family run vineyard than a big pharmaceutical company?"


7. Orion Slave Girls. They make a nice holiday treat....if you're into alien sex. Uh, I mean sects.


8. Last Minute Green Gift. You get a surprise visit from Aunt Mildred, and she's got gifts for the whole family. But you have no gift for her! Uh-oh....better sneak into the bathroom with your laptop and get her a Kiva Gift Card to loan $25 to third world entrepreneur.


9. Noob it. Enjoy the green sensation of learning something new.


10. Make-up! Get your fabulous friends to paint you green and take pictures.

Got any more?

GREEN Hallowe'en.

I always wanted to be green.


Ever since seeing that green alien in Star Trek.


Oops, no, I meant this green alien in Star Trek...


My friend Kathy (AKA @HelloPhotoKitty) is so talented.

I just love the light she gets...


...and I feel really comfortable with her.


Some subjects are a photographer's muse....but I think Kathy is my muse.


What are you dressing up as?

A safe Hallowe'en to you I wish.
Forget not your teeth to brush.
In Yoda-speak to comment you must.

How YOUR KID Can Be AWESOME On April 22nd.

Here's a story that starts with drawings and ends with animation.

This is me a few years ago. Pretty bad, huh? I was down cuz I had a fantastic animation idea for kids but no matter how many grants I wrote, I couldn't find the money to produce it. Anyone who has ever written a grant knows how the Paper Monster tries to blow you away.


But I didn't give up!

I eventually found some money and kicked in a healthy chunk from our savings. Everyone helped with the production - my co-creator @RosieEmery, my husband, and even our kids provided the voices. We had fun working on it because we truly believed in the idea. We knew that young children learn best when they're having fun and this series of eight little films would have them smiling and learning earth friendly stuff.

We called it "The Little Earth Charter".


April 22nd is EARTH DAY. If your kid is in primary school, chances are their class is doing something for Earth Day. If your son or daughter brings this DVD to their class anytime around Earth Day, they'll be sharing the Earth friendly energy with all their classmates.

Behold the Awesome!


How much does the Awesome cost? Only $12.99.
Where can I buy this Awesome? CLICK!
What age group is this for? Preschool to 8 year olds.
Here's the first of eight videos.



So go and get your kid's Awesome. And I'll include a free "Earth2Rosie" postcard, while quantities last! Remember, this animation is for the kids.

Share!
