So I've been working for a while now on starting a few projects. Setup was a bit slow and thing were starting to come together when my seven year old son informs me that he wants to do his own Video Blog. He pitched the idea one night at bedtime not too long ago and he was doing so well with his brainstorming that I was taking notes. He said he wanted to do a show about food, about kids and food. To try and show kids that they can cook. Show parents that their kids can cook. And teach people about good food that's good for them. We talked for quite some time about just how he was thinking about doing that.
He talked and asked questions about his favorite food network stars, and then sat up and asked. "Hey dad. If we do a good job, I mean a super good job, and really help people, do you think we could earn some money doing it?" "Yes Ryan," I said "Helping people is exactly how you make money." My little capitalist, wanting to monetize from day one. In his dreamy falling asleep voice that night he said "I'm going to be a star daddy" and then he was out. Kinda hard to let something like that go. SO his first episode went online this weekend. He is very proud of himself and is already planning next weeks show. He's loving the attention he's getting especially the comments that are starting to come in. I think he did very well indeed for his first time out of the gate. Heck he's doing better than I am. http://www.RyansKitchen.tv Now his three year old brother wants to get in on the action. It just goes to show that you're never too young. Hope everyone is having a fun weekend. -Chris http://www.TheRamblingLoggerhead.com
