  1. I really liked this post! You make a really good point. I do admire SpongeBob’s spirit.

    1. Thanks for coming by! Spongebob is my kids new favorite show. Lots of good stuff there.

      1. Yeah it’s nice to know they are picking up good lessons. I was just writing about ABC Family and how a lot of its content is not family friendly at all…

      2. I agree! So many shows that are “family oriented” are really trashy.

    This is awesome. Did you come up with the list yourself?

    1. Yep, that’s what I get from watching it with the kids this summer!

  3. Great list . . . SpongeBob is wiser than he looks or sounds. 😛

    1. I don’t know if I would go as far as saying he is wise, but he’s got a great attitude! That, in many ways, is more important.

While watching the thought struck me that the show has a lot of positive ideas. […]

  8. Wow, you get a lot more out of Sponge Bob than I ever did. I love this. Good luck with your new blog! I’m kind of slowing down and your starting a second one.

    1. After the first dozen or so hours you either have to look deeper for meaning or go nuts, I chose the first option. It’s still pretty silly.
