One Line A Day - Who Stole The Muffins?/Face Paint/Loud TV

Ben took me out by himself for the first time. I got a Hey Duggee book and brilliant blue pen.

I spent a Far Out Thursday doing whatever I want to do and being chill. I also went on an imaginary adventure!

I went into the living room while the sound was on, and I put the sound on for Mum too!

You've Got A Friend In Me

What To Watch After Turning Red

Red pandas are cute, but not as cute as Mei's red panda form. It almost looks male to me. Since Turning Red is a Disney+ original series, here are some Disney+ original series to keep you going after you've embraced the panda.
Zenimation - Waterways
This clip compilation features sounds of running water to clips from The Jungle Book, Tarzan, The Princess & The Frog and more. My favourite clips in this film are Tiana in frog form swimming underwater (first time fans won't know she's escaping from crocodiles) and Tarzan learning to swim from a hippo. If you sync it with Little Big Town's 'Questions', everything is just inspired - the birds flying the harmonious vocals, the lyrics matching everything on screen - perfect for those who love a good dive into the depths of mindfulness.

Star Wars: Galaxy Of Sounds - Wonder
The first short in the Star Wars: Galaxy Of Sounds series sees various landscapes and vast starry skies in the galaxy far far away, and glimpses of characters such as Rey, Jar-Jar Binks and C-3PO. Everyone knows the first piece of footage was from the first Star Wars film, and we even got a glimpse of the Mandalorian and Baby Yoda wandering out of their ship onto a vast planet. The short ends with Rey and BB-8 walking off into the sunset, while Luke Skywalker gazes out into the sunset. It's almost as if Luke Skywalker was saying goodbye to his future, as it's walking away from him, going further out of sight. If you sync it with Alt-J's 'Dissolve Me', everything will make perfect sense - the ships flying to the ultra hypnotic beats, the lyrics about sleep, and Jar Jar Binks' ship floating out of the underwater base to the second chorus. Try it. The Star Wars universe will be seen in a new light if you do.

Turning Red - An Inspiration

In my I.B.F.Fs stories, Sophie keeps a collection of Kawaii soft toys in her bedroom. Mei, the main character in Turning Red, keeps the same amount. Kawaii is what all people embrace these days, and even Sophie is embracing it.

I.B.F.Fs: The Comfortable Bed

This story compilation does feature a copyright avoiding version of 'Christmas Swim'.
In 'The Comfortable Bed', Sophie compliments on how soft and comfy the bed she shares with her siblings is, causing them to play cheeky games that involve whispering, tickling and cheekiness. In 'Family Christmas', Sophie spends Christmas with her extended family and gets two gifts that inspire her to write playscripts and do drawings. 'Ticklish' sees Sophie and her siblings play a cheeky game of 'Tickle Monsters'. I've yet to do a fourth story.

Christmas Swim

A script and a story based on Bluey's Christmas Swim and inspired by my memorable Christmas last year, when I got that Scream Street joke book...

This story gives an insight on what happened during Bluey's extended family Christmas at Uncle Stripe's house. Dr. F and Six spend Christmas with me and my monster extended family, and I recieve an alien notebook and a monster joke book. I decide to write playscripts in my new notebook based on the jokes, and we set up a movie based on the jokes using our drawings.

Tiger Fairy Face Paint

Deep in the jungle lives a tiger fairy. This magical character can only be unleashed with the magic of face paint, which you can use on yourself or on your child. You can identify the tiger fairy by the smell of cotton candy. Use cotton candy body spray on your child after applying the face paint.
