Scooby Doo Please!


I just want to give a big shout out to Hanna-Barbera for creating Scooby Doo! This show, with it's monsters and meddling kids, has become a staple in my household. For many moms out there, we all know it can be tough to find a show/movie that all the kids want to watch. With Jay being almost 4, he is totally into super heroes and wants to watch The Avengers or Batman or whoever, all day long. Jackson on the other hand is content with the Backyardigans. BUT..... Scooby-Doo has solved all these problems for our household!! I have no idea what it is about that show, but both boys stop what they are doing and move to the living room when I tell them that I am putting on the bottomless pit pooch!

Thank goodness that Boomerang plays the reruns and even plays the 1 hour movies all the time! Jay will even tell me which ones he wants to watch by describing the setting: "The pirate Scooby Doo is the one I want to watch" or "When the skeletons come alive, that's the one I want to see." So, not sure what it is, if it's the "scary" locations, the bizarre monsters, or Scooby and Shaggy being scaredy cats that intrigue my boys, but whatever it is, it works. So, bring on the Scooby snacks and sit back for a moment of silence! Thank you once again Hanna-Barbera!
