Do you remember Schoolhouse Rock?
I love, love, LOVED Schoolhouse Rock when I was a kid. And by “when I was a kid,” I mean right now.
Wordplay, lessons, music, movement – I loved it all, even bought a limited edition lunchbox with every song pressed onto a 4 CD set from Rhino Records when I was 24 and didn’t have children. I was married to a teacher, and gave her the box the day I bought it, but that was only an excuse and we both knew it.
Someday, I’d like to create something as amazing as Schoolhouse Rock.
Syllable Soup is my first stab.
I’ve been writing a lot of children’s poems lately, and am thoroughly loving the medium. David and I are putting the finishing touches on our first collection of fairytales this week, which is super exciting.
When he delivered this amazing video for Syllable Soup, it became immediately easier to dream about the many places some of our children’s work will go.
Check out the video, I’d love to hear what you think.

About Sean Platt
1/1/11 Such magical numbers! Love this project and the video. It is a fun tool to play with and share with children. Your innate ability to conduct language is the only symphony I will ever need to hear. I am looking forward to all the new lessons to evolve from a beautiful piece of text. You are Texty!
Did you just call me texty!?!
Oh, my. That is so very awesome.
Cute video, Sean…good luck. I will forward this to all of my teacher friends. It should be joyfully received! xo mom
Hey you!
Nice to see you back on the block!
I’m writing a short story right now that you will love. I’ll send it to you when I finish. It’s called, Respero Dinner. A bit Twilight Zoney.
