Hey Mama, Arpo Sees You

He’s sees you too daddy. You too nanny, oma, teta, and basically anyone who takes care of small children.

Arpo gets it.

Arpo is a cartoon robot that takes care of small children. It is a fun quick show that showcases the craziness of being a caregiver.

One of my favorites is this quick short about the struggles to spend quality time with your charges (in my case, my kids) while also taking care of the day to day business of life.

I felt so seen the first time that I watched this cartoon. Not only because it was relevant to one of the daily hurdles I face, but because it showed me the struggle is universal enough for cartoon makers to tap into it for inspiration.

It is so good to know that I am not alone in this. I am not the only one trying to figure out how to get everything done. Even a multi-handed robot can’t quite sort it out.

So remember whoever you are when you’re taking care of littles, Arpo gets it. And laughter helps any situation. So take a deep breath, have a quick laugh, and get back to the saints work you are doing.

Adventure on.
