I just started watching this series through while breastfeeding my youngest at night. I’ve always caught it in syndication so it’s nice to get to know the whole show. My older (4 year old) son asked what I was watching, and since then he remembers and says “is that Full House?” when he sees it on. He especially loves it when he catches the Golden Gate Bridge on the screen. I’ll pause it when he’s with me, we’ll all do story time on the couch, and then I’ll tune back in when he and his dad leave to get him into bed.

I’d love to invite him to stay up late on a weekend and watch a whole episode, but it’s amazing how even the most wholesome show like Full House is suddenly full of teen/adult humor or situations when you are looking at it with these lenses! Even excess “have mercy” kissin’ would be a lot for a 4 year old boy!

That all said, sound off! What do you think is the most wholesome G-rated episode of the series that a 4 year old boy might enjoy watching?

*EDIT- I of course know this is a G-rated show. But sometimes it deals with issues like death, divorce, adult relationship issues or “hot woman” tropes, and I’d just prefer to pick a different one for my little guy. This isnt me saying Full House isn’t wholesome, this is more me wondering if anyone’s show knowledge is so good you can point me to an episode that is all smiles and doesn’t have those topics in it.

I have a 4y old in daycare and his 3mo old sister just started last week, too. Yesterday morning I got an email that a stomach virus is going around both of their classes. I reached out before drop-off and was told kids were sick already that morning, and some teachers had it too. 🤢

I’m grateful to have the option to WFH occasionally, so I asked to WFH and kept them both home. My youngest is just too small to knowingly expose her (10lb at 3mo) and stomach bugs are the* *worst.

I’m grateful to be able to ask to WFH occasionally, but I’d feel like I was getting away with murder if I asked for too many days. Still, my priority is trying to prevent these littles (and the adults in our life!) from getting sick.

Is there even a way to be “in the clear” or is that just wishful thinking?! Maybe it doesn’t make a difference if I bring them tomorrow or even next week and they could still encounter someone with it later. I also know it’s foolish of me to think I could protect from any illnesses at daycare but if I could protect against just one it’d be the stomach bug! What should I do??
