<br />
The McGrews, a family affair.<br />
<br />
A few months back as I was working on the CanDos with my sister-in-law and partner in crime, we were grabbing some lunch and some how the subject of family history and ancestry came up. Billie’s heritage all but eludes me now, because as soon as she said she was Scottish and that she came from the clan called “The McGrews”, I couldn’t hear anything else. I started to bombard her with all kinds of questions. This was the most I could get from her in a condensed version. <br />
<br />
“The McGrews were from Scotland and they were so rowdy that they weren’t allowed to walk through town in a pack. They were eventually kicked out of Scotland and sent packing to Ireland.”<br />
<br />
So this Bedtime Tale is dedicated to Billie and her mother Sally.<br />
<br />
The moral of “The McGrews” is that we might all be different but that there is a place for everyone, with a quick rewrite of history and a little help from a sea monster named Nessie, the towns people learn to respect and accept the McGrews and they all live happily every after by the Bonnie Lochness.<br />

Ellie the Elephant: An Enchanting, Encouraging Audiobook</div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px;">
Ellie The Elephant, is a delightful story that not only entertains but has an important life lesson for listene<span style="line-height: 1.38;">rs of all ages.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
This bedtime tale, the second in a series of stories with moral from Heidie Stanton-Sharpe’s The CanDoPuppet Company recounts the tale of Ellie the Elephant as she searches through Paris for her lost pink beret. Ellie’s adventure is augmented with a catchy, singable tune that recounts the action. Each stanza represents a stop where Ellie makes new friends and acquires new, colorful gifts. Sadly, however, none of them are the beloved pink beret, which eludes her through the end of the story.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
While this may sound like a disappointing end for a children’s tale, Ellie’s story ultimately provides an unexpected twist and an important, even sophisticated life-lesson about appreciating all you have instead of focusing on what you don’t. Ellie culminates with the song,“Attitude of Gratitude” which delivers the story’s lessen. Some listeners will recognize Haben Abraham, the sweetheart of America’s Got Talent, season 4, as the voice of Ellie.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
A charming and positive counterpoint to superheroes and transforming robots, Ellie the Elephant isn't just a tale parents can feel good about sharing with their children, it’s one they’ll find themselves singing along with, too!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">

We kicked off our Bring A Book To Life Tour on January 16th at Mukilteo Elementary. It was our first public reading of our very first bedtime tale “The Tree that I Am”. We arrived ready to read for 3 classrooms and ended up reading to 6 different rooms with an invitation to come back for the 3rd grade classes and the kindergartners, the following week.<br />
<br />
I have to admit, I was a bit nervous about how the kids would react, if they would like the story or understand it. If they would be too cool to enjoy the puppets or just plain not interested in Billie and I. After all, this is a story that I have loved for years and it was my first time sharing it with the audience that it was create for.<br />
<br />
As we sat down to read, it all fell into place, the music and sound of Candy’s voice coming through the speaker, watching her come to life as she read my words, seeing butterflies come off the page and the kids laughing and gasping as our book came to life. It was priceless!<br />
<br />
The atmosphere at Mukilteo Elementary and the community they are creating with the kids there is so positive and respectful. They teach the kids 7 habits that are aligned with our values and beliefs about raising and nurturing children and we are excited to create a partnership with this school that will last for years to come.<br />
<br />
Thank you to the Dean and Staff for allowing us to share our story. It was the most humbling and rewarding experience. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive and we can’t wait to return and share our CanDo message.<br />

In the 1970's, The Boone sisters released several albums and reached the billboard charts twice. Her family also appeared in numerous variety TV shows and holiday specials, including 4 ABC Pat Boone Family specials in the late 70's. Cherry is an accomplished author, with a book on the NY Times bestseller list in the early 80's, appeared as an on-air host of the Seattle Easter Seal Telethon for 15 years, and is a talented creator. If you're lucky, you can see her perform live on the Seattle-Eastside theater scene. We are blessed to announce Cherry's addition to our cast as our magical, no nonsensical, Nana.

<span style="background: white; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; font-size: 11pt;">As
I was perusing the Internet this morning, I came across an article on fire
safety. After completing "Jack Be Nimble" video short, I
thought I would give it a read. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI'; font-size: 11pt;">
<br />
<span style="background: white;">I was shocked to find that 1 in 10 people will
experience a house fire in their lifetime and that over 3,000 people lose their
lives to house fires in the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">United
States of America</st1:country-region></st1:place> every year. One in ten?
There are 6 of us in my immediate family, and now our oldest is in love and

<h2>
<span style="background: white; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; font-size: 11pt;">Overcoming
Fears</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI'; font-size: 11pt;">
<span style="background: white;">Recently
I went to watch my next neighbor teach swim lessons to toddlers. Not only
was I shocked and amazed at her confidence and resolution as she continued to
calmly rotate screaming kids in and out of the pool, I was mesmerized,
traumatized and completely emotionally exhausted by the time I left the water
sports parking lot.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">I
started to think about fear and how we deal with our children's feelings.
Do we indulge their fears, do we release them screaming into the water, or is
there a middle ground? <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span><br />
<span style="background: white;">The
truth of what I witnessed is that the kids all had a moment of acceptance and
eventually learned to swim. Was the fear still there? Yes, definitely,
but with each little triumph you could see a glimmer confidence replace the
fear in their eyes.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">As a
sat there, lesson after lesson and talked to the parents, I wondered if I could
have handed over my child as she begged for her life not to let her go.
All of the feedback was the same, the kids left with a feeling of
accomplishment, the parents left confident that if their child ever fell into a
pool or lake, they would survive and I left emotionally drained questioning my
beliefs about pushing kids through fear.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">I
realized after I left with much soul searching, I don't think I could
have handed over my screaming child. I have complete respect for the swim coach
and the parents who chose this program. I, however, prefer a more natural
approach where we allow our kids to face their fears at their own pace with a
gentle nudge. Both styles come from a place of support and love with
valid reasoning behind the choices. Everyone has their own style of
learning and every parent has their own ideas about how to raise children, what
I took away from the experience was that no matter your parenting style,
teaching our children to face their fears, is a great way to build their
confidence.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; font-size: 11pt;"><b>Underestimating
our Youth.</b></span></h2>
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI'; font-size: 11pt;">
<span style="background: white;">I
believe in our future. The kids growing up today are exposed to so much
information at such a quick pace and they are learning faster than ever.
I believe that our children are capable of so much more than what we ask of
them most of the time. Their brains are little sponges, eager to soak up
new knowledge and they are at a phase in their lives where they are so eager to
please and want to know everything.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Have
you ever had a conversation with a preschooler when the only word out of their
mouth is "why?" You answer, they reply "why?" You answer
again. Again you are met with an inquisitive "why?" This game
could go on for hours. Why? Because kids have a natural desire to learn.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">This
is a great time to teach them as much as we can. The only limit is when
the child isn't interested. So our job is to make learning fun and
exciting and to continue to feed their insatiable desire to learn. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08416327383034243267noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4668538307640962574.post-6147746992773396222015-02-05T08:38:00.001-08:002016-06-06T08:18:15.247-07:00<br />

<b>Learning made easy with Music.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Some days I can barely remember my own phone number, but ask
me to sing a popular song that I haven’t heard in 20 years and I can remember
every line. Music is a great way to
learn and memorize information. It is an
enjoyable process with no stress or pressure, just a fun way to develop a new
skill. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Who remembers School House Rock? I learned all about American History and
English Grammar from a Saturday morning cartoon short but I can tell you the
purpose of a conjunction and I know how a bill becomes a law. I know that an “interjection, shows
excitement, or emotion. They’re
generally set apart from a sentence, by an exclamation point, or by a comma
when the feeling’s not as strong.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Studies have shown that using music as a teaching tool
enhances learning and memorization.
Music nourishes the brain while affecting all areas of development,
including strengthen listening skills, language and phonic awareness, and
encourages participation. In addition to
calming and helping the mind focus, music can create feelings of general well
being.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So if music makes learning easy and fun, then I suggest that
we embrace it. Dust off our dancing
shoes, turn up the volume and encourage our kids to get moving to the rhythm of
knowledgeGet our <a href="http://www.thecandos.com/books.html" target="_blank">Audio books Now</a><a href="http://www.thecandos.com/books.html" target="_blank">!!!</a></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Th<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">e SeaHawks are CanDos!</span></div>
<br style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">I have never really been a huge football fan but growing up and living back here in Seattle the past few years, how could I NOT be a Seahawks fan?</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Talk about a belief system in action! They are a fantastic example of the CanDo mentality. Working hard with focus, but most of all believing in themselves and their team!</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">My new found passion for this team far exceeds their football skills on the field and in fact, it was fostered before they were crowned champions last year. Back in 2013, I was privileged to participate at WeDay (WeDay.com). They needed dancers for the show and we were honored to be a part of such an incredible positive movement for our youth. It was an amazing day. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">The kids danced with MC Hammer and Kid President, took photos with Magic Johnson and Nelly Furtado and led the crowd of 15,000 in the WeDay Dance. </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Sometime during the day, Pete Carol was brought to the stage along with Russell Wilson, Richard Shernan, Russell Okung and John Moffitt. That is when I learned that coach Carol and the Seahawks were responsible for bringing WeDay to the United States and Seattle. That was it, that was the day I became a super fan.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">To be a true champion you must give back. For me, Pete Carol and his team were champions long before they ever brought home that Super Bowl trophy!</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">So after last weeks championship game, the CanDos got together and decided to pay homage to their favorite team and their incredible come back! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">GO HAWKS!!!!!</span><br />

How it all began......by </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<u>Heidie Sharpe-</u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<u><br /></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My goal is to entertain and educate pre K to 2<sup>nd</sup>
graders with a focus on self-esteem and self-respect. The CanDos were born out of a desire to teach
kids that they Can Do whatever they put their minds to. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I was a child that survived 2 divorces and found myself on
my own at age 17, I put myself through community college in <st1:city w:st="on">Los Angeles</st1:city> and then went to work. I started at the bottom and worked my way up
through the ranks to one day run and own my business. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After seeing The Secret on Oprah in 2007, I sat down and
made a list of the things I wanted in my life and ended up opening The
Connection Performing Arts Center in a small town in Western Washington. Just two short years after opening the center
we were crowned The United States Hip Hop Junior Division Champions. That lead us to appear on Season 6 of America’s Got Talent, where we made it all the way
to the quarter finals as Sharon Osbourne’s “Wild Card”. After appearing on the show many amazing opportunities followed; such as movies, concerts, and commercials. MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew, Nike, Rachel
Ray, We Day Seattle, U.S.A. Varsity Champions in 2013 and dancing for Oprah on
her “Life I Want Tour”. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
All of this success and the success of our young performers
lead me to ask questions. What if what we did at the studio wasn’t a fluke, but
a way to teach anyone that if they worked hard and believed, that anything was
possible? What if we could reach the kids before they got to us and they
arrived with that mentality? How could I
transfer the lessons I learned and applied at The Connection to a much younger
demographic? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That’s the day the CanDos were born!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This labor of love started in October 2010 and has become my
passion. I am so excited for this new
adventure and sharing this message with the children of the world. </div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
Growing up on a diet of <strong>Disney, Dr. Seuss, and <st1:street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">Sesame Street</st1:address></st1:street></strong>, I
never truly understood how lucky I was, until of course I had my own kids.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I couldn’t wait to share the lyrics of my
favorite Dr. Seuss books or the timeless talent of Jim Henson and Frank Oz
teaching kids about the Letter J on Sesame Street, and of course one of my all
time favorite Disney movies, The Jungle Book!</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
My collection of Disney DVD’s have their own closet, I can
recite most Dr. Seuss books by heart and I can sing along with probably 90% of
any <st1:street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">Sesame Street</st1:address></st1:street>
song dated pre 2005.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I think that
I am probably not alone in my complete and total adoration and gratitude to
these great creators who have inspired generations and kept our toddlers
entertained.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
One of the things these great story tellers had in common
was that they could take you on an incredible journey with fantastical
characters that were still some how relatable.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The music was classic and the backdrop of the stories was always vibrant
and inviting. I was so excited to share these adventures with my children and
relive it all as an adult.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

Now my son is 14, my daughter will be graduating from High
School in June and I have two girls in college.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We still all have movie night from time to time but the Disney nights
are fewer and farther between.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I only
read Dr. Seuss at High School Graduations and I never really see too much of
Elmo these days.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

I have been busy building a business the past 6 years, of course
with children.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Connection Performing

</span>It has kept me pretty busy and we started to experience some pretty
incredible opportunities and success.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>T.V. shows, movies, concerts and corporate jobs for the kids we were
training.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I love what we have done and
accomplished and that fact that it has lead me to discover a new passion and
interest, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/thecandopuppets/" target="_blank">The CanDos!!!</a></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/thecandopuppets/" target="_blank">The CanDos</a> were created to share my belief system with the
children of the world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A belief that you
Can Do whatever you put your mind to.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It
started as a simple concept to empower children and teach them to respect and
accept each other.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It has grown into an
amazing vehicle to educate and entertain preschoolers around the globe.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
I am blessed to have my sister in law and one of my best
friends as my partner in this venture.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>She has supported my craziness and encouraged me to share it with all of
you. She has been by my side while we learned that puppets are not as easy as
they look but definitely more fun than they look.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Tears of laughter over falling props and
crazy shots have made this journey one to remember. </div>

So thank you Dr. Seuss, thank you Walt Disney and thank you <st1:street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">Sesame Street</st1:address></st1:street> for
years of entertainment, memories with my children and inspiring me to create
something too! </div>
