I’m joining Mama Kat and MomPulse again for another vlogging workshop.
However, this week, I’m leaving the vlogging up to my sons.
The vlogging prompt this week: 5.) Give your child your camera and share when they vlogged or filmed (edit as needed!)
My boys, ages 4 and 7, each have their own small tablet that has photo and video capabilities.
It’s interesting to see what they capture in photo and video. Here’s a pretty representative collage of photos from their tablets:
There seem to be a lot of legs in their photos.
Their videos? Well, I’ll let you decide whether or not they are ready to hit the vlogging world.
Watch the video (and hit the subscribe button if you like what you see!)
What kind of videos do your kids take?

February 6, 2013 at 3:52 pmI love the side ways looks, the mouth scene was great and the use of Legos was spot on.
In a word or two…I loved it!
Great job guys!

February 6, 2013 at 4:06 pmThat was weird. I was able to delete the youtube link at the end of the comment. That did the trick.

February 6, 2013 at 5:38 pmThat is so funny! Naila shouldn’t worry about it so much.

February 6, 2013 at 8:55 pmIt’s too bad the video showed up so big or I would have just left it. I didn’t even realize you could do that!
Miriam Gomberg says
February 6, 2013 at 5:37 pmI think your boys are definitely budding cinematographers. It looks as though they were having fun anyway. It’s good to record this stuff for blackmail when they are teenagers. xox

February 7, 2013 at 9:38 amIt’s kinda fun to see the world through kid’s eyes when they are given a video camera.
Silly kids!

February 7, 2013 at 1:38 pmThis is awesome! It kind of reminded me of the Blair Witch Project in some scenes!!! I love it that you are vlogging every week! I feel like I really know you now! I see Mama Kat’s prompts each week and think “this week I’m gonna do that!’ but then I don’t!
Is it hard to edit and combine pieces? I would love to try this next week!
I am sure my son’s vlog would look about identical!

February 8, 2013 at 11:58 amIt is very much like Blair Witch Project!
It’s been fun vlogging. I haven’t done too much editing, but it’s really pretty easy. I use iMovie.
I’d love to see you vlog!

February 9, 2013 at 10:26 amLOL — mine just got Leapsters and they like to video the dog just sitting there.
Stopping in from SITS!

February 9, 2013 at 4:29 pmSounds riveting! It’s fun to see what they find interesting enough to capture on video.
