Nice job gracesmommy.
wow thanks! thats awesome. my daughters will be thrilled! harry potter was a total fluke - i could never get into them. my oldest loves mickey mouse and handy manny (thanku disney jr) as for trouble, i used to love that game when i was a kid. dr seus' books are some of my girls favrs. i can do the B book at the drop of a hat :)
I agree, love Disney Jr! DD pretty much loves every show on that channel! She now walks around trying to "cheers" everyone in sight when she has a drink. lol. Sadly at random times throughout the day, I find myself humming or singing "hot dog, hot dog, hot diggity dog".
Dr. Seuss books have always been my fav. so I'm happy DD enjoys them too. Thanks to amazon.ca we almost have them all.
I had never heard of Chicka Chicka, Boom Boom before but I saw it at a Scholastic warehouse sale and it looked good so I bought it. OMG, it's now DD's favourite book. We read it daily. I even got her the Chicka Chicka 123 from the library and she loves that one too! Guess I need to go buy that now. Great books for learning the alphabet and numbers!
OK, new contest!

I don't know what I'm doing wrong.........I will get this grrrrrrrrrr!!
From the info thread (http://forum.smartcanucks.ca/37289-s...mation-canada/):
It's actually really easy.
You have the link right....

You take what's AFTER the = sign... so that'd be... Z47EUaIFrdQ... in this case. And you paste that in between the you tube brackets.

Like that. (some brackets removed for the purpose of showing you) but this is what the end result is....
