Forging Your Own Path

02/10/2015 by The Mama Maven

Netflix Stream Team: Forging Your Own Path |The Mama Maven Blog | @themamamaven

This month’s Netflix post is about forging your own path. As a mom to a 9 year old boy, 7 year old girl, and 4.5 year old boy, I love seeing their individuality come out.

Ever wonder what happened to the storybook characters we grew up with like the Mad Hatter, Snow White, and the Evil Queen? Turns out they are parents now too, and their children are studying at the enchanted high school of Ever After High, a boarding school for teens destined to follow in their famous parents’ fairytale footsteps. The all new original special Ever After High: Spring Unsprung, premiering Friday, celebrates the idea that the story of your life is not written in permanent ink. You have the power to create your own destiny.

In two other Netflix original series premiering this month, there are kids also creating their own destinies. Teenage mermaids stand out from the crowd in Season 2 of Mako Mermaids (2/13), and Richie Rich (2/20), the same entrepreneur we grew up with, is back but this time his refusal to eat his veggies has made him a trillionaire.

In your house, how do you encourage your kids to forge their own paths?

Here are a few other ways to get your kids’ wheels turning:

2. Make a discovery: Sid the Science Kid

3. Walk on the moon: Justin Time: Blast off!: S1E13

My little guy just discovered Handy Mandy and it’s inspired him to start taking things apart to see how they work (which isn’t always fun at times).

To keep the kids chasing their dreams, map out those big ideas on a DIY vision board. Cut inspirational words out of magazines, print photos of favorite characters or add your own knick-knacks and trinkets.
