Hello, Smarty pants, and welcome to trusty Trivia Thursday. Today we're digging deep, crafting clever answers and building brain power with Minecraft. But before we punch our first tree. Don't worry, it's tradition. I want to give a blocktastic shout out to two huge Smartie fans, Gabby and Mason in Idaho. I hear you both love how fun it is to learn with who's smarted. Well, that's what we do. We make learning fun for our Smarty Pants, especially on their birthday. Happy birthday, Mason. I hope you have a wonderful and super smarty day. And now let's craft some questions. Question 1 what is the main goal of Minecraft? Is it A to beat the final boss as fast as possible, B to build, explore and survive in a blocky world, or C to collect every hat? Did you say B? You've mined the truth, Smarty pants? Minecraft is a sandbox game, meaning you decide the goal, whether that's building castles, exploring caves, or surviving the night. Question 2 which material is needed to make a diamond pickaxe? Is it A, iron ingots, B diamonds and sticks, or C emeralds and hope? Going with B, that is a solid build. Diamonds plus sticks make one of the strongest tools in the game. Perfect for mining even tougher blocks. Last question. What happens if you look directly at an Enderman? A It waves politely, B. It gives you free blocks. C. It becomes hostile if you pick C. You're ender, right? Endermen don't like eye contact. Look at them and they'll teleport you faster than you can say creeper. Aw, man, you've crafted a win, Smarty pants. Join us next Thursday for more trivia.

Hey smarty pants, trusty narrator here. Do you love music as much as I do, but find learning how to play it a little confusing? I sure did. When I was a kid taking piano lessons, music sometimes felt like a mystery. I could press the keys but I didn't always understand why it worked and that made it hard to learn. That's why I love what my friend Will has created. Music With Will is a live online music program for musically curious kids aged 7 to 12. Instead of just copying songs, kids discover how music actually works in a playful, creative aha moment kind of way. Will was home educated himself and music felt like a black box to him growing up. After nearly 20 years of teaching, he built a program he wishes he'd had using ear first learning with singing, listening and pattern spotting. No musical background needed at all. There's two live 60 minute lessons every month, recordings you can access anytime, and tons of flexibility. Parents and kids are loving how this is unlocking musical potential and to get you started, Will is offering the smarty fans 10% off the already very low monthly price and you even get a 14 day free trial so you can see how awesome it is before you pay a thing. I can tell you there is no better deal for awesome kid centric music lessons and anywhere. Check it out at musicwithwill.com WhoSmarted that's musicwithwill. Com WhoSmarted.
