Creative-Type Dad: May 2015
http://creativetypes.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 19, 2015. A letter to my son on his 5th birthday.). Happy 5th birthday Mr. E! Or as you call yourself, “SUPER-E! How can you be 5 already? Just a few things you did and said this past year that I’m going to remember forever:. Announcing at breakfast that your imaginary friend of 3 years, Sneaky Gumball, died the previous night riding a tiger Tijuana. Dressing up in costumes (Buzz Lightyear, Cowboy, Vampire). And then playing the piano. To the sun out the window. The “knock-knock”. You got ma...

Creative-Type Dad: March 2015
http://creativetypes.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 27, 2015. First World Kid Problems. With all of the things happening around the world and even nearby, it amazes me at some of the things I’ve been hearing all this week:. 4YO ran out of space on his iPad. 9YO dropped and cracked her iPhone screen (again.). No new movies on the iPad to watch while on a Road Trip. "Road Trip". Meaning 20 minutes in the car. Pad Apps (while on "Road Trip”) that require an internet connection. Show Estimated time: 3 hours to download work PowerPoint. Her getti...

Creative-Type Dad: October 2013
http://creativetypes.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 25, 2013. Lionel Richie REALLY Likes Me (So Much That He’s Using The Artwork I Created To Sell Merchandise). There I was, like any other good husband who had just taken his wife to see Lionel Richie at the Hollywood Bowl. Walking down the corridor alongside a massive crowd of millions just after the show ended, humming to the tune “brick house” still stuck in my head. Then I see this:. And the one that caused an internet sensation to billions around the world! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Creative-Type Dad: When Your Kids Asks, “Have you ever heard of a vinyl record?”
http://creativetypes.blogspot.com/2015/04/my-daughter-asked-me-recently-have-you.html
Monday, April 20, 2015. When Your Kids Asks, “Have you ever heard of a vinyl record? My daughter asked me recently, “have you ever heard of a vinyl record? 8220;Yes. Why do you ask? She went on to tell me how the neighbor’s 19YO had one and played them on this funny thing called a "record player.”. I nearly died laughing inside just listening to her explain it to me. I’ve always had a thing for records as it always reminded me of my grandmother listening to records (mostly Tom Jones). View my complete pr...

Creative-Type Dad: I Booked My Sons 5th Birthday At Chuck E. Cheese. Shame On Me And My Family For Generations To Come
http://creativetypes.blogspot.com/2015/05/i-booked-my-sons-5th-birthday-at-chuck.html
Monday, May 11, 2015. I Booked My Sons 5th Birthday At Chuck E. Cheese. Shame On Me And My Family For Generations To Come. I had no other choice, my options were exhausted from waiting too long. My wife and I have been talking about his birthday for months. My thoughts were to have it at home and invite a few friends, but apparently you can’t do that anymore when inviting friends from preschool - you have. To invite half the school so kids don’t feel bad. And then years later I do the EXACT SAME THING!

Creative-Type Dad: Connecting With The Kids On A Family Vacation
http://creativetypes.blogspot.com/2015/04/connecting-with-kids-on-family-vacation.html
Monday, April 13, 2015. Connecting With The Kids On A Family Vacation. It was so much better than our normal family affair of a multi-day theme park visit to someplace like Disney World. On the way home I asked my kids what their favorite activities were from the week. My 4 year-old answered, “eating Easter candy and visiting a farm” and my 9 year-old, “playing on the beach and the REALLY fun conversations we had while hiking.”. 8230;the REALLY fun conversations we had while hiking.”. A trip well spent.

Creative-Type Dad: February 2013
http://creativetypes.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 10, 2013. I recently had a ‘proud dad’ moment when my daughter recently asked if I could make some Minecraft Valentines for some kids at her school. We’ve been playing the Minecraft Pocket Edition on our iPads the past few months now and she just loves it. And I can’t get enough of it either - it’s strangely addicting. Here they are to share with friends this Valentine’s Day. And in a true CTD fashion, there’s one with a little Lionel Richie nod…. Labels: apps for kids.

Creative-Type Dad: Preschool Graduation: just like watching an episode of the Muppet Show except with lots of crying!
http://creativetypes.blogspot.com/2015/06/preschool-graduation-just-like-watching.html
Friday, June 12, 2015. Preschool Graduation: just like watching an episode of the Muppet Show except with lots of crying! And it wasn’t the parents doing the crying. My son graduated preschool yesterday, which is a little bittersweet, because it still amazes me how fast the time just flew by with the second child. Sometimes I just stare at him and think, “whoa little man - when did you get so tall? And how did you beat that FRAMED game on your iPad all by yourself? I can’t even do that. ”. For a moment I...

Creative-Type Dad: A Real Review of Dollar Shave Club
http://creativetypes.blogspot.com/2015/06/a-real-review-of-dollar-shave-club.html
Thursday, June 25, 2015. A Real Review of Dollar Shave Club. A friend sent me a hilarious video on YouTube called “ Let’s Talk About #2”. From a place called Dollar Shave Club. If you haven’t seen it I highly recommend watching when the kids aren’t looking over your shoulder. I remember hearing about DSC a few years ago but didn’t think much of them. But after watching the video I thought, “hey, why not try it out. seems pretty cheap and useful”. With an asterisk of *not really. I hooked up the new handl...
