That was last year when I was COVID+ over succos.
When you drive to Liberty Science Center but you can't go in because not everyone brought proof of vaccination, at least your kids could enjoy a good story album on the way home...

I was really excited to go to LSC for chol hamoed because it's going to be empty. But then I realized how close it is to Passaic and Teaneck

For some, stories are just more important.

May I remind you...

Can you sail with no ship, to a land very far,
Or fly without wings through the air,
Can you leap into space, and land on a star,
   And feel just as if you were there.

Can you travel in time, to an age from the past,
   Or climb up a mountain so high,
Can you dream in your mind, or imagine so fast,
   Without even closing your eyes.

All you need is a story, a wonderful story,
   There’s so many kinds you can choose,
With princes and kings,
And mysterious things,
   Whatever it is, you can’t lose.

All you need is a story, a wonderful story,
   Exciting suspense, through and through,
With action and thrills,
Lots of tension and chills,
   What’s in store is a story for you.

Now you know what it takes, to soar through the sky,
   Adventure awaits you, my friend,
With a story so real, that you’ll laugh and you’ll cry,
   And wish that it never will end.

So gather ‘round children, and hold your seats tight,
   As we move through time and through space,
With a tale of enchantment, suspense, and delight,
   We’re off to a faraway…off to a faraway…off to a faraway place.

All you need is a story, a wonderful story,
   There’s so many kinds you can choose,
With dangers and fright,
Darkness and light,
   Whatever it is, you can’t lose.

All you need is a story, a wonderful story,
   Exciting suspense, through and through,
With twists and with turns,
And a lesson to learn,
   What’s in store is a story for you. …

All you need is a story, a wonderful story,
   There’s so many kinds you can choose,
With sinister schemes,
And miraculous dreams,
   Whatever it is, you can’t lose.

All you need is a story, a wonderful story,
   Exciting suspense, through and through,
So come take a look,
In Zeidies old book,
   What’s in store is a story for you. What’s in store is a story for you. What’s in store is a story for you.

My kids spent my whole COVID+ sukkos with perler beads (plus a few other arts and craftsy things people sent us).

Stories don't cause infertility. Or Magnetism.

Rule #1. Especially if the majority of Chol HaMoed visitors are Chassidim.

Didn’t stand and watch. I saw some frum people leaving soon after the venue opened, but I’m not sure why.
