Amy and Sitaara take a deep dive into NPN's popular email, the NPN Weekly along with special guest Natalie Monterastelli of Bubbles Academy. We talk about being a homebody, parenting homebody kids, parenting pressures, and Amy's op-ed in Crain's Chicago Business about Chicago Public Schools. On the lighter side, we share info on local Halloween attractions, Halloween events, and why we should exercise our social muscles. Then we share a bunch of ways that families of young kids can activate those social muscles at Bubbles Academy this weekend and beyond.
Here are links to the events and sights we discuss:
