Future Truth Seekers - NH

Maria from NH talks about how her two sons, one pictured above with his nigh vision goggles and a cut-up "DT" Fan Sticker, and why they love "Destination Truth." 

Destination Truth became an instant staple in our home as soon as it first aired.  Let me start by saying my two boys (ages 5 & 7) are pretty much nonfiction kids.  Preferred stations include Animal Planet, Discovery Kids, National Geographic and SciFi (first for Ghost Hunters, now for Destination Truth). They also love being outside and active so DT was right up their alley.  

The cryptoids grabbed them first, then the Indiana Jones-like adventure.  They also appreciate the humor and will often quote "Joshisms."  Their ipods are full of DT episodes and the fan videos downloaded from youtube.  

Both boys even asked for, and received, night vision goggles for Christmas (although the most use they get is being worn when they go to the bathroom in the middle of the night). 

It is a great show that we can watch together and enjoy as a family.But what my husband & I love most about the show is how it has carried over into their everyday play and imagination.  They (and their friends) often play Destination Truth out in our woods. They carry on discussions about which episode they want to play (The Lobazon is a favorite & Quinn even asked if I could get him a pair of Diesel Jeans LOL) or make up their own creature they are going to hunt.  Of course, young boys being young boys, they usually end up finding the creature and some sort of fight ensues before the game is over.  But they will spend hours outside playing this game.  

The cutest part is watching them play Rock, Paper, Scissors for who gets to be Josh.  I am often recruited to play Ryder ("All you have to do is look pretty, act scared and say 'bleep' a lot").

So, keep up the good work Josh and Team. We are all anxiously awaiting your return in September.
