What songs did you sing as a child?

hockeygal4ever @hockeygal4ever (10021) • United States 26 Mar 07

My kids LOVED to sing and listen to kid songs when they were growing up. I grew up singing camp songs and such. Yet today it seems the parents have no clue about the benefits of singing and teaching the kids through song! What...

kiera81 I loved singing camp songs as a kid. As far as the nursery rhymes go, most kids don't know them and it's a shame. Nursery rhymes and the songs that go with them teach kids language patterns and rhyme. They help kids learn how to read.

Who was your favourite X-Files character?

randomosity_prevails @randomosity_prevails (1110) 31 Jan 07

Please don't count Mulder or Scully as your favourite. I always liked Langely, because he was generally pretty chilled out regardless of the situation. I liked Alex Krycek too. What about you?

lone gunmen

mulder

scully

kiera81 I think I like Skinner. I like how the creators of the show revealed little bits about his character, but never everything. I also liked how he was stuck in the middle and they had to create that dynamic as well.

kiera81 The hunting and painting of eggs actually has more to do with the Pagan aspects of Easter than the Christian aspects of the holiday. Bunnies and eggs are both a sign of fertility and "re-birth" in a sense. Spring is the perfect time for growth and new things....
