Modding is Hotdogs
Meet the Emotionutties Today, we started using Code Studio… Minecraft was our first project. This is her initial intro to Blockly. This is what the blocks of code look like when shown in text. My mom types faster so she’s going to type what I say to write. I made a dinner plate with […]
Storytelling and Book Writing
Lily has written quite a few books, has expressed interest consistently on getting them published and distributed, and we are now looking into the process and she’s learning how she can accomplish exactly what she’s after, and she’s writing more stories. Using this page as a repository for online resources, as well as explorations for […]
Let the Scripting Begin
We’re reading Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream, and before long I expect Lils will be composing scripts and well be putting on a play. But first… These are Lily’s first script replications with assistance. She has her own form of script as well, but has chosen to learn how to decipher standard, modern cursive. We will […]

First Tangible Letter – Mailed
Lils brought this picture she created for her grandma to me today, folded in an envelope, hoping to send it off to Denver (where Grandma lives). I worked with her to create a second envelope for mailing, as her first had her image folded into a fully 4 dimensional object. I explained the machines, sorting, […]
Day Names
Bugz has decided she wants to know about the days of the week. The manner in which she will ask for the day’s name sometimes leads to very strange responses from Russ and I. As a result of how she frames the question, for a while, she sort of believed us that instead of the […]
Is That Our CecilyBugz??

Formerly, she was in something that resembled Pippi and pj’s. She indicated she was “Ready to go see what they were doing!”, and was quite disappointed when she learned that they’d […]
