Give them Wings Soar with Planes 100 Fandango Giftcard Giveaway!
Have you heard about the new Disney movie coming out this August?
Planes!
From above the world above “Cars” comes “Disney’s Planes,” an action-packed 3D animated comedy adventure featuring Dusty (voice of Dane Cook), a plane with dreams of competing as a high-flying air racer. But Dusty’s not exactly built for racing—and he happens to be afraid of heights. So he turns to a seasoned naval aviator who helps Dusty qualify to take the defending champ of the race circuit. Dusty’s courage is put to the ultimate test as he aims to reach heights he never dreamed possible, giving a spellbound world the inspiration to soar.
I don't know about you, but I am SO excited about this movie. Mostly because it is similar to Cars. I have 2 daughters and you would assume that the Disney Princess movies are their favorite, but guess what? Most of the Princess movies scare them (they are scared of the evil wicked step mom or dad that all the princess movies seem to have) and Cars is actually one of their favorite movies!
When we were at Disneyland this past Spring, Cars Land was the biggest highlight (for all of us!)
You've got to check out the Planes movie trailer. If you loved Cars, I know you will love Planes!
Just like the movie Cars, the Planes movie will have an underlying theme of a good role model, positive parenteral type figure & seasoned vet helping out a youngster, giving them knowledge, sharing wisdom with them, being brave and helping them reach their dreams......all things we as parents do for our kids.
As a parent, we want our kids to reach their dreams whatever they may be.
And, as a parent of multiple children, I know that each of my 3 kids will have different dreams because they are three unique individuals.
Kate says she wants to be an artist when she grows up, Claire wants to be a nurse (and who knows what Luke will want to be....maybe a professional football or baseball player?!?)
When you have 3 kids with 3 different personalities, I have learned that you have to parent them differently. I remember when Claire was born and she was a girl, I assumed she was going to be very similar to Kate, since she was also a girl.
I was wrong, so very, very wrong. They might both be girls but their personalities are SO different.
And, yes, we have to parent them differently because they require different things.
Kate is our people pleaser (like me.....) She doesn't want to let anyone down and always wants to do the right thing. I am not going to lie...parenting Kate has been pretty easy the past 6.5 years. I relate to the character Chug in the Planes movie when I parent Kate...I have a soft heart toward her and I know that she needs a lot of encouragement to try new things.
Claire on the other hand, is completely different to parent. When she is on, she is on. But when she is off, she is off. And, watch OUT.....you never know what you are going to get from her. She is full of life and has a spark in her eye. She is determined and stubborn. I have to parent her like Dottie...the tough love approach. I don't want to squash her spirit, but rather I want to direct her spirit & determination in the right direction to help her reach her dreams. I have to have A LOT of patience with her...and she needs love and reassurance to try new things.
And, Luke, well he's just a baby, so only time will tell on what type of parenting he will need from us. But so far, he is the easiest, happiest baby ever! Let's hope he stays this happy!
The bottom line is, each kid needs something different and what works for you & your child may not work for someone else & their child.
We all want our children to soar, so give them the wings the THEY need to reach their dreams.
How you encourage your children to try new things and follow their dreams?
