Check out Saturday Night Live's Amy Poehler's new webshow "Smart Girls At the Party," which "celebrates girls who are changing the world just by being themselves":
And take a peek at www.onebrowngirl.com for more pro-social messages for little girls everwhere. Plus some cool t-shirts.
Have a great weekend!
Deepa is a wife, mother, writer and she sometimes masquerades as a lawyer as well. She revels in friendship, humor, champagne, and laughing at herself--often. She never ever reads US Magazine, thinks Rushdie is a genius, wishes she could write one sentence as funny as "Arrested Development," and lives in the Bay Area with her motley crew. She can be reached at deviswithbabies@gmail.com
Just went through the One Brown Girl site--it's an amazing mission! Great for my daughter, too.
Love the idea of Smart Girls. Kind of thought it would be tons funnier though. They need a guest spot from Tina Fey!
is no one else bothered by the fact that this is sponsored by barbie? i loved the segment but found it absurd that i had to watch a commercial for barbie before, after and during a show called "smart girls at the party,"centered around feminism. what's my favorite barbie moment? when i used to color her face with a brown marker and dye her hair with food coloring trying to make her look more like me.
I was thinking the same thing! At first I thought it was an ironic thing--haha, look Barbie is sponsoring Smart Girls. But I don't think it is. Very weird. Do they have "Indian Barbie" yet???
