WENT TO SEE THE REAL WILD KRATTS TODAY

Valerie managed to scoop up the last three seats to see the Kratt Brothers today in Lynn, Massachusetts. The Kratt Brothers are Conor's favorite TV show. Chris and Martin go all over the world discovering different types of animals and then imagining what it might be like to have the creature power of the animal they are studying. As soon as they say, "What if…", they turn into cartoon people and then anything is possible. This is the only show Conor watches now and he has learned tons of animal facts. He told me the other day that a group of hippos are called a pod. That the Cheetah is the fastest animal that travels on the ground. And the perigen falcon is the fastest animal on the planet. We checked his facts and they were, of course, correct. We told Conor that we were going to take him to see the Kratt Brothers just before we left this morning. He didn't really get it but if it included getting to watch more Kratt Brothers, he was interested. He asked me if we were going to go to their world. "No," I told him, they're coming to our world. When the lights went down and the animated show started on the screen, he was all in. But when the lights came out and the Kratt Brothers jumped on on stage when the cartoon characters said, "What if…" Conor sat there stone faced. He didn't smile and he didn't cry. He was so puzzled he just sat there. He never looked at me or his mom. He just sat staring at the two Kratts. He eventually warmed up to them and smiled, clapped, raised his hand when they asked questions. But when it was over, he never said a word about what he had just seen. Never wanted to talk about it. He fell asleep on the way home and is still fast asleep and will be until tomorrow morning. I'm not sure if he'll want to talk about it or not. I wonder if he'll see the Kratt Brothers show the same after today. Time will tell.
