This Ted Talk was shared with me by The Cultivated Mother (whose blog about homeschooling and living in Japan is great, by the way!)  She knows that we love puppets in this house, so she thought the six-year-old might like this.  It’s long, and it may not interest younger children.  I had to prep my six-year-old for it by telling him it was a little slow in the middle, and I sat and explained it to him while we were watching. He enjoyed it (he has no problem telling me when he’s not interested in something), and he thought the life-sized puppet horse was really cool.

This is a new series I’ve started under the tag “Inspire Kids.”  If my six-year-old loves it, then maybe your children will too!
