I’m sometimes asked what initially drew me to the field of early childhood education.

From now on I’m just going to show people this video.

Bottom line: there is no more joyful an experience than being in community with young children. Their enthusiasm, wonderment, and kindness is unmatched.

A football match between Canadians and Americans in London, England during WWII in 1944. The game, known as the “Tea Bowl”, drew over 30,000 spectators just months before D-Day. Canada would win 16-6.

One that relies on the uncompensated and stolen work of untold numbers of human artists.

How many copyright lawsuits are currently in the system against @OpenAI, and how many more can be added? It's a plagiarism machine based on uncompensated labor from human artists.

What if I change the question: in education, is the final telos citizenry in heaven or on earth?

Because answering that question may change how we educate.

Dolores Claman's 1968 song, "The Hockey Theme", performed by the Jerry Toth Orchestra. Dolores would later say she had never seen a hockey game in person before writing the song, instead imagining Roman Gladiators battling while writing it.

Ryan Gosling: “When I was 16 and moved to Los Angeles and was auditioning at Warner Bros., they wouldn’t have let me climb the water tower. Ten years ago, when I shot ‘La La Land’ here, they wouldn’t have let me climb the tower. For whatever reason, right now, at this stage in my life and career, they’re letting me climb the water tower. So climb it while you can, because I don’t know if I’ll be able to climb it tomorrow.”
