Entertaining a sick kid

William is laying on the couch watching on the big TV. It has the better shows (cable has noggin and PBS sprout) shows we don’t get in our bedroom.

This show called Hip Hop Harry came on. Some big, Barney type, bear dressed in hip hop clothing with his hat worn with the brim to the side of his head.

I hear the “rap” music playing so being the super cool mom that I am I bust into a cool mom hip hop dance in front of William. He starts laughing his sick little belly off and says “MOOOOOOOOOOOOM, stop dancing”! (Hey at least I didn’t make him laugh so hard that he threw up again) So I stopped dancing. Then William told me

W: If you’re really groovin you have to have a big metal on.
M: Some BLING?
W: A really, really big metal, Mom. Then you are a really good hip hopper.

There is a boy named William on the show and he was given his turn to dance in front of everyone. All the kids on the show gathered around in a half circle and watched him dance. As he got going they started chanting his name as they grooved to the music. So I was grooving a little and started chanting with them.

GO WILLIAM, GO WILLIAM, GO WILLIAM, GO WILLIAM!

Again came “MOOOOOOM STOP! But at least he was smiling and laughing as he “yelled” at me.

When I say hip hop you say Harry

Hip Hop Harry
Hip Hop Harry
Hip Hop Harry
Hip Hop Harry!

If you can dream it you can achieve it. Is one rap they perform

This is one of the other raps from the show.

If you like to read
and you like books
just open one up
and take a look.

Not a bad message in a hip hop way. The show is kind of cute and all their pants are up in the correct spot, no undies showing, like in a "real" rap video.
