MARTHA MORPHS INTO MR. MOTIVATOR.

Before Martha was born, my wife and I made a conscious decision to keep her free from phone and tablet screens for as long as we could, pledging to keep our offspring engaged with us rather than zoned out on Peppa Pig in her pram. I think pre-birth Martha had overheard our conversation, and staged an in utero sit in protest, eventually coming out sixteen days after her due date, only after I had spent fourteen of those days skim reading the FBI hostage negotiation handbook before I spoke directly to mummy's tummy using a bullhorn and assured pre-Martha that she would still be able to watch TV, a good while before she knew what a TV was. Unfortunately, Mr. Tumble and Iggle bloody Piggle were both still viewable on a TV screen, so we didn't get to skip them through toddlerhood. He was always so weird and otherworldly looking, with that funny shaped head and nonsensical speech. Iggle Piggle was a bit strange too.

Once Martha had cast off her selection of wooden rainbows and the like, we purchased a Kindle tablet for the long car journeys to Butlin's, and filled its meagre megabytes of memory with an assortment of animation in order to avoid the "are we THERRRRRRRRRRRE yet?" game. Apart from the Butlin's road trips, Martha just left the Kindle in a drawer and happily made fully functioning medical kits and prototype nuclear weapons from an assortment of cardboard, pipe cleaners, tissue paper and string. At age five, she suddenly began asking for her iPad. I explained the not so subtle differences between iPads and Kindles (i.e. one is expensive and pretty awesome, and the other is the Kindle), but this was lost on her. The generic name for a tablet in Martha's World is officially 'iPad'. It's her more technologically advanced equivalent of my 'Sellotape' or 'Hoover'. She uses the tablet to video call grandparents far too often, and to leave voice messages if the grandparents don't feel like partaking in their 57th video call of the day, as Martha fails to get ready for school at 7:43am. Along with video chats, she became briefly engrossed in Hello Kitty’s nail salon game, which was just like the real world, but without that nose tingling acetone stench. You could upgrade to get the acetone smell feature, but I didn’t think it was worth the extra £3.99 per month.

One day after school, Martha came home, threw her coat on the floor at the door, kicked her shoes into next week, and sat on the Persian rug. She crossed her legs in a perfect Lotus position, made circles by joining her thumbs to her forefingers on both hands and exhaled a ‘namaaaaaaasteeeeeeeehhhh’ so soothing that I had to check behind the sofa to make sure we hadn’t got lost on the way home and ended up in a Yoga studio. We hadn’t. All I found behind the sofa were a thousand germ-riddled street feathers. I asked where THIS had come from, and Martha told me that they did yoga at school. She grabbed the TV remote (as this was the only piece of technology that she had used since early on, she navigates round it like a pro), and she opened up YouTube. Within seconds, we were lost in a world of Backstreet Boys videos and 'classic AJ'. Several hours later, Martha introduced me to the world of Cosmic Kids Yoga channel. It features a woman named Jaime, who somehow piggybacks the popularity of Spiderman, Minions, Encanto, Star Wars and many, many more in order to magically trick hyperactive school kids into chilling the fuck out and working through an interactive story that she tells via the medium of a million yoga poses. She signs off with a ‘nnamaaaaaaateeeeeeehhhh’. Of course she does. Jaime and her Cosmic Kids have 1.6 MILLION subscribers. I’m guessing that 1.599 million of those are knackered schoolteachers who just want to have a break from wrestling sharpened spoons from tiny ruffians for up to 31 minutes. I was introduced to Cosmic Kids through Jaime’s loose ‘interpretation’ of the Disney megafranchise 'Frozen’. Jaime turned it into some kind of Frozen/Yoga hybrid, a Fro-Yo, if you will. Or a half hour state of Fro-Zen.

Last Sunday, mum was in the kitchen when she heard Martha talking. Assuming it was some kind of cross-generational video chat, she popped her head into the living room. Martha was watching a Cosmic Kids yoga workout video on her ‘iPad’. Only she WASN’T. Martha had propped her ‘iPad’ up and set it to record video in selfie mode. She then recorded a sixteen-minute video of herself as a breathy yoga instructor taking her audience through many moves, ranging from the classic entry-level ‘standing up’ to the trickier ‘balancing on one leg’. She offered encouragement to her audience throughout, and didn’t once feel the need to pretend to be a fast hedgehog or a boy who had been bitten by a radioactive bastard spider to hook in her viewers. MetaMartha was balancing on one leg in the middle of the Persian rug, paying careful attention to Martha Motivator on the screen. At one point in the class, Yoga Instructor Martha told Martha the actual real world child to balance on one leg, and then told her she was going to try to blow her over. On screen Martha blew at the camera, and real-World Martha wobbled and chuckled.

Yoga Instructor Martha is now a mere 1.599,998 subscribers behind Jaime and her Cosmic Kids. She has accrued two very proud subscribers, who are both absolutely petrified that the after school transformation of Martha into aggressive Victorian schoolteacher (you’ll hear about her soon) to dippy hippy yoga instructor is imminent. I have my excuse planned already: “Sorry love, I can’t have you shout at me to stand on one leg for sixteen minutes, I have to make the namasss –tea”.

do you we deserve space?

you ever just feel small when you think about how wide the universe really is?

i do.

in a way i think it’s cool.

the universe is constantly expanding and you are, in reality, this tiny speck. we’re so small compared to space.

there’s so much out there to explore, and due to it’s constant growth, there will be a never ending void full of the most mesmerising and (literally) other-worldly places to explore. so many planets and creatures we don’t know about.

i want to know about them. i want to explore space.

space is really special, not just to me, but to many others. humans are destroying the only planet we know about that is inhabitable. it’s showing that the people leading us now don’t have an idea of how we should be using our lives to protect this precious place.

sometimes i think we don’t deserve space.

A very scary few days but I’m glad it's all over now. On Saturday afternoon the eldest Cosmic Child got admitted to the Children's Intensive Care Unit of our local hospital with a lower respiratory tract infection. She was initially put on oxygen but she was a very serious case and soon they had to switch to a ventilator and sedate her. It was rather touch and go if she could be treated at our hospital as they thought she was too serious of a case for them to deal with. Plans were drawn up to send her to a specialist ICU in London. But she fought back like an absolute lion and proved the doctors wrong! Over the next few days she was weened down off of the sedation and oxygen, and was taken off of the feeding tube too. There was even time to play a little before this afternoon when she was finally allowed to come home! We're so glad she's home and better. And I'm looking forward to a night in my own bed again after staying with her the whole time.

Brain Breaks to Fix the Body

Hello, I am Jason Incudine.  Thank you so much for finding my blog.  I am so glad you are here.  I am a Physical Education teacher in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania who has a passion for children’s physical health.

As the Physical Education teacher at an inner-city elementary school, something that I noticed when some students came back for hybrid learning in March was that the majority of the students had put on weight.  Of course, I cannot say that I was shocked.  Many of these students do not have safe spaces in their neighborhood to play.  Many students also are not provided with nutritious food options, nor do they have adults in the home to model healthy eating habits.  However, I was a bit surprised to see just how much some students had transformed their bodies. In an article by Sumathi Reddy in the Wall Street Journal published this past May, medical director of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, Rachana Sha mentioned, “I’ve been really shocked by the amount of kids who have gone from normal weight to obese in a short period of time during the pandemic.”  I started to feel discouraged in how we, as educators, could aid them in returning to a healthy body composition.   In my school, students only have one forty five minute period of Physical Education per week.  Of course, I use that time to give them as much activity as possible.  However, also during that time, we are discussing nutrition, the importance of being active every day, and components of fitness that can help them maintain a healthy lifestyle.  As a result, the amount of activity that the students get in my classroom will do very little in offsetting the damage that this past year has done on their overall health.  Discussing student activity with classroom teachers at my school, many mention that they give their students brain breaks throughout the day.  They mention that it is a great way to help students refocus.  I propose that, during this coming school year, classroom teachers increase their amount of brain breaks.  This can accomplish several goals. First, it will help students meet the goal of sixty minutes of activity per day.  Second, it will improve their cardio respiratory endurance and their muscular endurance, which will make it easier for them to stay in activity without tiring.  Finally, increased brain breaks will increase the amount of options students will have at their disposal to be active on their own time.

Of course, the pandemic and it’s consequence of virtual learning is how we got into this mess, but it also has given us the tools to combat it.  The website, GoNoodle has been around for quite some time.  However, since the beginning of last school year they have increased the amount and quality of their content based on the surge of demand.  CosmicKids is another website that has developed yoga routines for younger students with an array of themes that will be sure to interest all students.  The format that I relied on heavily during virtual and hybrid learning was Youtube.  Many educators with some tech savvy skills developed an amazing variety of fun and engaging physical activities.  One thing that I noticed last year was how so many students had favorite videos that they were moving along to on their own time.  Many videos even would incorporate math and spelling, which makes them a terrific option to use during those subject areas throughout the day.

I understand that teachers and administrators have a lot of pressure on them in order to prepare students for the standardized tests, and to meet state and national standards regarding their curriculum.  However, we are seeing just the beginning of a crisis that needs to be addressed. If these kids are not able to redevelop healthy habits, there is going to be a generation of adults with very serious physical health related illnesses.  This generation is going to tax our healthcare system in ways that history has never seen.  We must work together and vigilantly in combatting this crisis.  That is why it is so important to increase the amount of opportunities for physical activity for our students this upcoming school year.
