Scene: Preschool breakfast table with five 5/6 year old boys. I.e. funniest thing in the world: penis. Ickiest thing in the world: girls

Me: [some random silly "threat" in a mouthing off game with five year olds] Boy: Well, then, well, then I'll send 100 girlfriends to your house!! Me: Sweet! Can you send me 100 boyfriends too? Boy: THAT'S GAY!!! Me: Well... yes.... but also... no. 😅

thank goodness for bsd wan and the existence of teacher dazai. where would i be without you

based on a real-life conversation that happened with me and my students when i was a kindergarten teacher. very small children are some of the most ruthless and funny people i've ever met. it's an absolutely lawless land in the classroom (they were very sweet though!)

Yes, I still wear them 😅🙈

You take that back, young, wondrous, adorable Blossom.

'Cause you're an awesome caregiver.

Indeed, he seems to be the only one to have this "healing" capacity.

Ya heard me Vash? You're fucking amazing.

All throughout the show, he has always been so kind, gentle, and attentive. He's just the sweetest.

When I was in Kindergarten this girl kissed me and told me it was okay to kiss your friends and I was like no it’s not it’s weird and

1. She was right and I was wrong

2. There is NO way she is straight

3. Do ya’ll think she’s single???

I think the most interesting thing comparing Nick Jr.’s two biggest “audience participation” shows (and two of its biggest shows, period) and realizing Blue’s Clues succeeded everywhere Dora the Explorer failed.

Blue’s Clues never talked down to the target audience and the hosts spoke to the kids like normal human beings. Dora always spoke to the audience in a VERY patronizing tone.

Blue’s Clues used repetition to teach new phrases, words, and concepts, but sprinkled them at various points each episode to help kids learn better. Dora would repeat the same thing at least three to four times in a row like some sort of chant because, I don’t know, the producers don’t have the highest view of kids’ intelligence.

Blue’s Clues was fun for everyone while still being educational for younger kids (even in the late ‘90s there was some Blue’s Clues merch aimed at older fans). Dora was...tiring for anyone over the age of three or four.

There’s probably more, but I’m typing this pretty early and I’m still sleep deprived, so feel free to add on more. But in general, I noticed Blue will always have more staying power over Dora.

One of the fun lil ironic parts of MCMT is that when Draxum actually realized he saw the turtles as kids his kneejerk reaction was basically "well fuck they're kids but they're MY kids and i can't train them to fight now because they're just precious lil babies and I could never make them fight" and he actually managed to hold to that idea.

Until they started school.

And within the first week of school Millie screamed at another kid until they cried because they tried taking a toy from him, Demophon bit someone for looking at him too long, Lua kicked a teacher, and Ragnarok refused to talk and snapped at anyone who approached him.

So now Draxum's getting report after report about how unruly and hard to manage his kids are, how disruptive to the classroom environment, how difficult, etc. So could he do something with his kids to make them not like that please, train them to behave better around other people, that kind of thing. Draxum's a little lost for a while because he doesn't know that much about training children at this age.

But he does know how to teach people to fight. And none of his other resources are adequate, none of his books cover what to do when all of his kids are like this, highly creative and energetic and destructive and made to last days without rest, and they will shipwreck themselves against rocks that most people will never even see in their lifetimes if he doesn't do something.

So. He teaches them the basics of self-defense. And perhaps he should have taught them earlier, given that--well. It's never too early for them to learn. Maybe he frames it as a game, a simple but structured way of getting their energy out. Maybe he frames it as an incentive, a 'don't hit your classmates when you're bored or no sparring after school' type of deal.

Whatever the case, they enjoy it, and more than enjoying it they love it, adore it. They want to train with him, and it becomes a staple of the family routine, the family bonding.

And Draxum pretends it doesn't sicken him at all that fighting is now such a part of his children's lives, even when he didn't want it to be. He couldn't take something they love so much away from them.
