Journalists' Juniors: Introducing Keaton & Parker Buckroyd

Meet Keaton (3) & Parker Buckroyd (13 months), daughters of Flaunt Magazine music editor Trent Buckroyd.



Trent is one proud Pop! Both girls have already inherited their father’s passion for music. Keaton loves Gwendolyn and the Good Time Gang, a LA band. She also loves Ralph’s World. “We Are Ants” is a favorite or hers as is “Mommy Needs Coffee.” Keaton’s kind of a music snob-- other than select kids music, she really only listens to dub music from the ‘70s. She seems to prefer releases from both the Black Ark and Studio One catalogues. She’s jumped on the Arcade Fire hipster band wagon too. Parker, on the other hand, is just starting to walk and dance. She really just rocks side to side, but she only does it when her sister is dancing.



Q: Keaton’s Favorite Foods?
A: Just about anything. She loves pasta, hamburgers, pudding and pickles.

Q: And Parker?
A: Parker has just started to eat things that aren’t from a jar but she seems to dig pasta w/ sauce and quesadillas and Cheerios.

Q: Keaton’s Favorite Books?
A: Keaton is a Dora the Explorer freak so she loves to read Dora books. Loves Little Einstein's too. (Her dad says it’s so subversive, she has no idea she’s singing songs along to classical music!) She just started reading the Dr. Seuss books and likes Green Eggs and Ham and Are You My Mother the best. Even though, she’s really too big for it now she still likes to read Goodnight Moon before bed.

Q: Favorite LA family hang?
A: On weekends, you can usually find the Buckroyd family at the LA Zoo or the Aquarium in Long Beach. They haven’t attempted Disneyland yet but a visit is in the forecast for 2007. The Farmers market in Studio City on Sundays is a favorite too. The girls can ride ponies, swings, trains and get their faces painted “like a princess.” There’s a small petting zoo and the food is delicious. Keaton and Parker’s dad is a big fan of the strawberry agua frescas!
