'Thrice the fun' as I like to put it.  The excitement was real, the lessons were real, the chaos was real.

#TakeYourChildToWorkDay x 3

Posted by Josh Strickland on Thursday, April 23, 2015

Madison, 7, Brennan, 6, and Sofia, 3, each lent a hand to help deliver the forecast, the Birthday List and the Three Question Quiz, among other things, on Thursday April 23rd; Take Your Child to Work Day, as they woke up extra early to go to work with DJ Daddy, aka Josh Strickland in the Morning.

There were highlights, like free cupcakes from Bake N' Cakes, and there were perks, like being able to give shout outs to your friends and pick songs to play (Madison requested "Animals" by Maroon 5, Brennan requested "Everything Is Awesome" by Tegan & Sara and Sofia requested "Let It Go" by Idina Menzel).

But apparently all that work stuff like editing phone calls and "we just DID the weather!" eventually became tedious for some.  Fortunately, Daniel Tiger was on and the kids had also brought some toys.

If you can believe it, this is the very first time we've done the "TYCTWD" thing.  They've all been in the building before -- even in the studio, but never "on the job."


Here's a little behind the scenes look at how it went.
