      He seems to have a soft spot in his heart for grandkids. (And probably children too).

    I'm very happy that you are doing these videos instead of solely making posts on social media platforms or writing books. Storytelling and telling of experiences from our Ancestors is very important in the sense of using our voices and using and creating our genetic memory. Ahehoo from kinlani by Dookoosliid

    I'm so glad that some others still use these. I don't think there's enough teaching to spread it out as much as it should be.

    A lullaby my Grandmother used to sing:
    Byo baby bunting
    Daddy's gone a-hunting
    To get a rabbit skin
    To wrap his baby bunting in.
    Wonder if there is a connection?

    Spiritual Teacher, in June of 1992 I became Jewish. It was the most wonder decision of my life along side my marriage. My father's best friend in college at UC Davis veterinary medical school during the Civil Rights Movement was Jewish. My Rabbi Fred taught in Alaska where the Inuit are. He taught me to be open to a more spiritual Judaism acknowledging the divinity of the Jewish God and His Shekinah in all traditions in the sense that on a certain level its all the same. However, all this took place following a terrible conflict between the Mormon Church and the Jew's in Utah over the practice of Baptism for the dead that the local news stations were reporting that Mormons were doing tp Jewish ancestor who died during WWII during the Holocaust in Europe
    The Church conceded tp the Jewish population. However many blacks and some natives are unaware of it.
    I am listening. I hear. 🌷

    I was taught the structure wooden board is made from cedar not pine. Oak was used for the over head board.

    The details you share are delightful. I am reconnecting to kanienkehaka Haudenosaunee lineage, but what you share resonates in my heart and spirit.

    Is the cradle board still used? My Cherokee grandma tied me on her back with a blanket.

    It reminds me of pure luck and beauty
    And it truly was (and still is) one of the luckiest moments in our life
    when I found a backpack cradle for my Baby who had been 9 month
    Then in a second hand shop in the middle of nowhere in northern Germany….~ !?…
    Previously I had carried her wrapped in a cloth.
    The cradle was fabricated with
    nowadays commonly used synthetic materials (what I felt pity for).
    But the technique and the design of the original idea was clearly transferred into the (then) Now.
    The back was sturdy and padded and her body was held in front by fabric with straps.
    - the part for the feet was not included in the design. - (Is it to be said “Earth was missing”?)
    - Nonetheless I can still see the glow in her eyes as we prepared and set off.
    We could experience everyday life well secured, back to back, unencumbered.
    Pure luck and beauty
    Thank you )

    How does the cradle board wick away moisture and prevent the infant from sweating/overheating? When I put my infant in a modern carrier, a stroller or his car seat the heat and sweat gets trapped.

    • @jasminevaliente94

      Gets trapped how? For starters its flat there's no sides like a carrier however the baby will be swaddled so if you mean trapped on their skin that's pretty inevitable if your baby sweats a lot the blankets will cause moisture
