Creature Power!!

Ryan's latest obsession is a PBS show called Wild Kratts.  It's basically two middle aged men who teach kids about animals in both real life and in animation.  Last weekend, the Kratt brothers (Chris and Martin) were appearing at Brookfield Zoo...and guess who got to go!! Of course, it was the hottest day of the year but the whole family made the trek anyway.  As Matthew said, it was kind of like the Beatles for young kids.  The announcer thought there were 17,000 people there...I'm not sure about that but it was definitely a lot of kids!!  Ryan now knows more animals and facts than I thought possible.  And of course, when he "plays" Wild Kratts, he is Chris because Chris wears green.  Connor and Matthew are always Martin!!
