Let’s have the Dutch ‘Hunter Street’ for Czech quarantine productivity

Hello, all. I sent the following email to my Czech friend in Prague who is a parent. I’ve decided to share it:

I’m sorry to hear that the kids’ quarantine thing is ‘quite annoying’ for you. Hmmmmmm I cannot imagine how annoyed I would be, in Prague, if I were a mum in this situation. In the chaotic afternoons, are you going to get your kids to watch Hunter Street by Nickelodeon? But they key question is, HOW can you get Hunter Street?

Please do not waste time on playing Roblox for six hours straight.I have nothing against Roblox, but I have something against playing a video game for six hours straight. It is just excessive. I love Hunter Street.What’s so good about playing Roblox for six hours straight? What is that going to teach your children? Playing Roblox for six hours straight is NOT going to teach your children to help you. It is NOT going to teach your children to help you wash the dishes, it is NOT going to teach your children to clean the dirty car for you, it is NOT going to teach your children to help you wash the dirty clothes, to dry the dirty clothes, and so on. If you think about it – you are a clean person, they cause most of the mess, and you are constantly battling against this backlog – bits of bird food on the floor, attracting the silverfish at night, and those pests EAT YOUR SOCKS. Then, your clothes have HOLES THROUGH THEM. Give it a try. Get them to watch season 1 episode 1 of Hunter Street. Then, it goes on.

The children’s step-parents got into serious trouble as they got kidnapped, basically. And the children, who are step brothers and sisters, do their best to help their parents. The producers have carefully presented the story so that the viewer understands that the parents got kidnapped, but it’s not going to scare a child really too much. There’s even a part, in the Hunter Street TV show, when the children work hard to clean the house, before that social worker comes – so, the sister cleans the toilet, the brother scrubs the dirty floor… … … …What would your own children do for you? At least wash the dirty pot for you? At least take the clothes out of the washing machine then dry them ? ? ? ? Are they going to do ANYTHING at all? It is a really brilliant TV show, just perfect for a child who is 10. And I really enjoy it. You should give it a try! ! !! ! !!! ! ! ! !!!!!!!!! !!!!! If your girl is not going to do such a big job for you – COOK YOUR SPAGHETTI FOR YOU, FOR YOUR DINNER, at least she can do something very small, like toss the trash into the trash bin! ! ! I think it is a very big job, to cook spaghetti for dinner, certainly for a girl who is only ten years old!
