Re: Anyone celebrating?
Although I won't be able to see SJA series/season 2 right away when it airs (since I don't live in Britain), I do plan to celebrate at some point.
The DVDs of SJA series/season 1 come out in October, and I do plan to have a little party then. I'm going to have my friend and her 2 daughters (ages 11 and 10) over for a "screening party." My friend gets frustrated that the shows her kids watch on TV have such bad role models (Hannah Montana, etc.). I want her girls to see Maria, who is smart, fun, and adventurous; and who is also cool and stylie without dressing and acting provocatively. Of course, Sarah is a great role model too, but I think that the kids will probably identify more with Maria.
So, to complete this party, I will probably try to plan some fun mother-daughter type activities, too. The board game and the jelly bean game that Llin made up are things that I might try. If anyone else has any fun ideas of what I could do, let me know. And I'm eager to hear what else everyone will do to celebrate the start of series/season 2--hope that you all have fun!
