sisters and mom endlessly about Walter de la Mare’s poem “I Had a Little Pony.” I had a little pony, His name was Dapple-Grey. I lent him to a lady To ride a mile away. She whipped him, She lashed him, She rode him through the mire; I’ll never lend my nag again For any lady’s hire. —Walter de la Mare The poem led to discussions about keeping our real pets safe and free from harm, and how we should treat others. And so, too, can a virtual pet lead to high-quality discussions, as well as play-acting with virtual pets when grandkids CliCk on Play button to view video. are far from the Web site. In the age of Webkinz, we just need to take care to make time to have those rich discussions about loyalty and that good old standby, stewardship. G Animaspade is a photographer in Louisiana who has written and photographed a Webkinz YouTube series. Of the many that made us laugh with delight (Webkinz climbing up a dish-towel rope to steal a box of cookies, Webkinz overdosing on popcorn at the movies), we found “A Day at the Spa” irresistible. Enjoy! because we’re stronger together Generations United is the national membership organization focused solely on improving the lives of children, youth, and older people through intergenerational strategies, programs, and public policies.
