Strong Dads Wrap-up

2 weeks ago | tulsakids.com | Lynn Hernandez

You may remember a blog I did last year about a course given by Oklahoma State University called “Strong Dads”. I interviewed Lacey McCause, Strong Dads Field Coordinator with Tulsa County Cooperative Extension Service. She talked about the goals of the class and how it can benefit dads of any age. There is also a nice compensation for travel costs, a $10 gift card to QuikTrip for each class you attend. And three $25 gift cards to Walmart after completing a survey about the class.
Jocelyn Doeksen: Artist

3 weeks ago | tulsakids.com | Betty Casey

Jocelyn Doeksen is a senior at the Tulsa School of Arts and Sciences. Jocelyn’s art was chosen as this year’s ZooRun tote bag image. She has already seen many successes – and rejections – as a young artist, but views it all as part of her creative process. TK: Tell us about the ZooRun tote bag art competition? How did it feel to win that? Jocelyn: I found out about the zoo tote bag competition on a random weekday.
Color Your World with Magical Books

Back in my weekly storytime days as Youth Librarian, I occasionally struggled to come up with a theme for each session. Sometimes the books I wanted to read easily coalesced around one idea or another (bath time, bears, birthday parties) and, sometimes, my “theme” was just “These are books I’ve discovered recently that I just love, and you might, too!”Here’s my “Books” column equivalent of that non-theme theme.
Farmers Markets Offer a Bounty of Learning Opportunities

3 weeks ago | tulsakids.com | Cherie Gough

Going to farmers markets on a regular basis puts fresh, seasonal produce at kids’ eye level. They start to notice that foods vary week by week and learn what’s in season. This offers an opportunity to discuss why they won’t see a watermelon in January and helps create family traditions like making peach pie in July. Farmers markets introduce kids to healthy new foods and support local farmers.

Preparing Kids for Severe Weather Season

3 weeks ago | tulsakids.com | Kirsten Lang

As a meteorologist in Oklahoma, I am often approached by parents with requests to talk to their children. Sure, many of them think it is cool and want to learn more, but there are quite a few that come to me with the opposite – storm anxiety.
Improving Schools with Student-Centered Teaching

4 weeks ago | tulsakids.com | Betty Casey

Dr. Eunice Tarver and the Student Success Team at Tulsa Community College invited Dr. Gloria Ladson-Billings to speak at a Lunch & Learn on “The Power of Student-Centered Teaching Strategies.” I have been out of the classroom for many years now, but I enjoy keeping up with current educational trends and issues, so I went to hear her presentation.
Spring Break 2025, Part 3

1 month ago | tulsakids.com | Lynn Hernandez

My son and I crammed so much into 5 days, 4 nights in Texas I had to break my story into three parts! Again, I hope you had as good a break as we did, filled with family, friends, and food!!Since the mid to late ’80s, shortly after we graduated high school, my sister has lived in Austin, Texas. I visited many times before I finally graduated college and moved down there, too. Her husband worked in the concert ticket industry at a company called Star Tickets.
Spring Break 2025, Part 2

1 month ago | tulsakids.com | Lynn Hernandez

Driving from Tulsa to Austin takes about 7 hours if you stop only once to gas up and take a quick potty break. The only time I’ve done that is when I’m traveling alone. I did it a lot when my brother and mother in Austin were very sick and dying. My brother passed about 15 years ago from cancer. My mother passed about 5 years later, also from cancer. During both situations I drove back and forth many times. I’d stay in Austin for a couple days at a time, come home for a week or so, then go back down.
Gardening with Kids: Start Simple – and Embrace the Mess - TulsaKids Magazine

1 month ago | tulsakids.com | Kirsten Lang

In my early adult years, it was a joke amongst my family that I had anything but a green thumb. In fact, my aunt would gift me a pot of lavender with the line: “Don’t worry, you can’t kill it.” But inevitably, it wound up dead in my yard one month later. About six years ago, I became a mother. And now, three kids later, I have found the start of a new hobby for something that I once never expected: gardening. It started as a teaching tool for my young children.
