Muley Reads: When Aidan Became a Brother

With so many species of animals, the MuleyVerse has always been inclusive and appreciative of people because of their individualities and differences, the things that make them special! Mules, dogs, ducks, horses, donkeys, and cows - all friends!

This sweet #ownvoices picture book by Kyle Lukoff, almost autobiographical, celebrates the changes in a transgender boy's life, from his initial coming-out to becoming a big brother.

Muley Reads is a series of videos starring Muley the Mule reading some of his favorite books - and we hope some of yours - wishing to inspire a love of reading, learning, imagining, and creation in children of all ages! And, as always, we love the books that communicate about people, animals, environment, love, and friendship. Some of Muley's special friends may even pop in to request a book. Music is Crazy Chicken by David Fesliyan. "Reading is fundamental!" Books add the fun, Muley adds "da mental!" Grab your family together, grab a snack or two, and sit back to relax while Muley Reads!! www.muleythemule.com www.muleyshow.com

Muley Reads: Harold and the Purple Crayon

Are you like me?  Hate to go to sleep until you finally fall asleep?  Sometimes, I read a book (duh!), and sometimes I lay there imagining what I could be doing instead of sleeping.  The first thought is:  I could be drawing!!

Well, that's just what Harold does!  He likes to draw with his purple crayon, and he allows his imagination to take him on a great adventure - instead of going to sleep, haha!

Grab your family and friends, grab a snack or three, and enjoy this edition of Muley Reads: Harold and the Purple Crayon!

Ears lookin' at you, kid!

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have ears like Muley the Mule or Missy Mule?

Now, you can find out!!

First, cut paper in long strips, about 1" wide.  Tape that together to create a head band that goes all the way around your head.

Next, print the attached pages (on 8.5" x 11" paper, landscape).  Color them for shadows, or color Missy's bows any color you want, and then cut the ears out.

Attach the ears to your headband!  It works best if you attach Muley's ears more toward the front, or Missy's to the sides.  Then, cut out the mane and tape them on the front center.

Here, you can see where the ears are on their heads...

Muley on the Manta

We've been living vicariously through YouTube visiting theme parks and rides, and pretending to go on those rides.  Now, Muley has taken the rides to the next level and REALLY pretended to be there.

This coaster video of Sea World's Manta (Orlando) is courtesy CoasterForce.com and their channel has all sorts of great coasters to watch.  Thanks to Jerry for letting us use the video.

Obviously, everything escalates because:

Muley Reads: The Giving Tree

Sometimes, we just give and give, until there's nothing left to give.

Sometimes, all we have to give is love.

Sometimes, we can give little things like arts and crafts we made, give time to help someone, or give a caring ear or shoulder.
