Welcome, Smart Girls

Amy Poehler is cool for lots of reasons, not the least of which is that amazingly perfect Sarah Palin rap she did on SNL just before giving birth.

But the best thing about Amy Poehler–at least so far this week–is her new website, Smart Girls at the Party. First of all, awesome name. And its content? Even awesomer.

From a 10-year-old writer who can think on the fly to tween Brooklyn band Care Bears on Fire, Amy P. and co-creators Meredith Walker and Amy Miles are on a constant hunt for girls with passion. In newsy interviews with musical interludes, these girls talk about everything from gardening to yoga to meditation, all while being super cute and completely themselves. Naturally, we’re in L-O-V-E with this site.

Also: it’s sponsored by Barbie, which is like 1000 times better than being sponsored by Bratz.

Watch the clip below where Amy Poehler tells you more about the show. We dare you not to swoon.
