I started this blog with one daughter, kept it up with the other, to spend time together doing something we enjoyed.
However, things change and people evolve. My daughters are older, busier, and not as interested in writing.
From now on this blog will be mostly mom with occasional contributions from my daughters and maybe even my husband.
Nothing else will change. We'll still focus on sharing fun places to go, fun things to do, and more, and we would  still love to hear your views too

Valentine's Fun with Gustafer Yellow Gold at Symphony Space Plus a Ticket Giveaway

What: Gustafer Yellowgold

Where: Symphony Space
            2537 Broadway (at 95th Street)
            New York, New York

When: February 14, 2015 
           11:00 AM

Who: Ages 3 and up

If you are sick of endlessly listening to children's performers that are strictly for the kids like The Wiggles and Barney, why not try something that you can both enjoy? Gustafer Yellowgold, a creation of children's performer, Morgan Taylor,  is a friendly creature who came from the sun landed in Minnesota and has all kinds of crazy musical adventures discovering our world.  He has been described as "a cross between Yellow Submarine and  Dr. Seuss" by The New York Times. His concerts are like a mash-up of a rock musical and an animated cartoon.

Gustafer's adventures have included:

Gustafer Yellowgold's Wide Wild World
Gustafer Yellowgold's Have You Never Been Yellow?
Gustafer Yellowgold's Mellow Fever
Gustafer Yellowgold's Infinity Sock
Gustafer Yellowgold's Year in the Day

His most recent adventure, Gustafer Yellowgold's Wisdom Tooth of Wisdom, concerns Gustafer's search for the owner of a giant tooth. Click below for the trailer:
