We just started discovering videos based on classic children’s books on YouTube . Augie and Noah just LOVE Eric Carle’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar and this video brings the images and words to life.
“Listen to the musn’ts, child. Listen to the don’ts. Listen to the shouldn’ts, the impossibles, the won’ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me… Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.” -Shel Silverstein
Eric Carle is Augie’s favorite author and after reading “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” a hundred million times, it’s time to introduce him to a new character. I don’t see too many maze toys in stores but you can find a wide variety online. This is one of my favs. Based on the Eric Carle book, the wooden Mixed-Up Chameleon Maze features metal balls in eight bright colors that kids can move around with the attached magnetic wand. A great travel toy, this fun color sorting maze will help your little ones with their hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills. Available at Buy.com for $24.95 here.
Our girl INDIE, mother of 3, wife to COPE2 and fellow graffiti writer, shares with viewers her influences, describes her style and talks about motherhood in this video featured on Vimby. My son Noah loved all the “fruity” colors and watched it 5 times in a row! Being a mama and a writer, this was an interview I could really relate to. Also, did I mention there’s a sick ass interview with INDIE’s partner in crime, COPE2 in Clout #11? Go pick up a copy if you haven’t done so already.
Here’s Noah, helping out his mama with the product photography. Available in adult sizes Medium – 3X, the limited edition t-shirt features an old school subway train painted by New York graffiti writer and legend Cope2. When designing the tee, I decided to print this specific Cope train because it is just so classic! It’s dated 1984 – I was one at the time! I went with a large print to make it in your face, just like Cope’s work is. The limited edition label features Cope2’s famous throw-up over the Clout logo with a “Kings Destroy” tag underneath. Only 72 pieces were made.
Cope2 is also a dad and is featured in our latest issue of Clout. Order yours from Clout Online here and get a free copy of Clout #11. Let me know what you think…
Cope’s been writing for 30 years!
Here’s a detailed image of the t-shirt.
