TV Has Changed

I remember growing up watching classic educational shows like Sesame Street. Now kids' shows are nothing but action and violence with no real learning experience other than how to fight. I'm just glad that shows like Sesame Street and their products like Sesame Street gifts at Personal Creations, are still going as strong as ever.

It means a lot that my children are able to experience the same fun educational values as much as I did as a child. So what's your opinion on kids shows from the past and present?

A Branson, Missouri Getaway.

A while back I talked about a vacation closer to home on my blog. While it may not be my grand island vacation I've always wanted, Branson, Missouri offers a vacation that is closer to home.

Another reason I can easily consider Branson as a next vacation is the fact that I've been there on more than one occasion. Take Silver Dollar City for instance. If you're a family that happens to love theme parks and lives in the area or not! -you're bound to make Silver Dollar City one of your many stops. The Ozark based theme park is not the only attraction in Branson, however.

Branson, Missouri also offers some of the greatest country and western shows right at your front door. Branson is home to legendary stars like the Oakridge Boys, Jim Owen and Mickey Gilley.
Not a country music fan? Don't worry. Branson offers a wide variety of musical entertainment, so there is sure to be something for everyone.

Love Museums? Then, you definitely have to check out the Ripley's Believe it Or Not Museum. That's the one museum I have yet to visit, so it will definitely be one of my first stops on my next visit there. I can't wait!
