Happy and You Know It Movie Review
age 10+ Insightful docu about children's music; some language. Parents need to know that the documentary Happy and You Know It explores the world of children's music. It contains minimal swearing (one use of "f--k" and "s—t"). The film interviews children's musicians, who express the joy they derive from their craft and the hard work that goes into being successful at it. Kids benefit from having music in their lives, and they are seen on screen dancing and singing with delight.

The day would start with a giant bowl of cereal, and if it were a Saturday, we would watch cartoons on the black-and-white television. Tim and I would go down to Steve and Dave’s house for a while and climb the trees in their backyard or swing from a swing in their basement.
Friday Music Stuff
I worked a bunch of extra hours at my other job this week, and Friday is my new Saturday, so I’m pretty wiped out and my brain is mush. Merely forming sentences is an effort, and the last thing I care about right now is politics. All I want to do is chill out with some new music. People are still making cool tunes, even if you’ll never hear them on the radio.

35 min Our world is full of big, heavy topics: War, politics, racial injustice, poverty... The list goes on. What’s the best way for dads and moms to approach these topics with our kids? Do we let them come to us? Avoid them at all costs? Hope that through some combination of teachers, YouTubers, and headlines, our kids will draw their own conclusion?
