Thank you a ton for all your contributions to OINK. Its been a wealth of local knowledge for our household jumping into homeschooling this year and opened us to a huge community we didn't even know existed. I want to especially thank you for the autism spectrum tid but above, we've been searching for something like this for a few weeks now and this little nugget was a gold mine we will be filing away for future adventure.

Fantastical! We love Mary and all her friends, even the man with the wooden leg named Smith... though we don't know the name of his other leg ;)

My kids love singing but haven't watched/heard this one yet. Looking forward to introducing them sometime soon- even better if it were on stage!

So excited for Mary Poppins?
