If you and your kids love Blues Clues and Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood- listen to this episode and meet the creator and executive producer! Angela Santomero is so multi talented it's hard to attribute just one or two adjectives to her. But when I think of making a difference and contributing to a positive impact on children, I think of Angela.Angela began her career in the early 1990's at Nickelodeon. Her Talents were quickly and easily identified and she became executive producer and writer of the very popular kids show Blues Clues. When Fred Rogers died in 2003, "Kevin Morrison (CEO-Fred Rogers Co.) reached out to Angela and asked what show she would do to honor Fred's legacy". Her idea was an animated version of Fred Rogers' Neighborhood of Make Believe. This was the birth of the very popular Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood. Angela recently added "best selling author" to the list of credentials as the author of her new book, Radical Kindness. Hopefully we can all make a difference in other people's lives. Angela and the children's shows she creates, make an impact that will last a long time!

The talk was all about asking questions and this is the quote I included Angela in that talk: "I believe so strongly in the power of listening that it has been my underlying passion while creating high qulaity kids media. I include it in my shows for children through our interactive model in varying degrees. We pace our shows much slower and with pauses to let preschoolers think, from their thoughts, and answer back. Few believed that pausing on television would make such a different to preschoolers, but the positive results have been statistically proven. We have also heard from many adults that it has taught them, as well, to slow down and pause (listen) when they ask a question. Hurray!" Giveaway!
