Jesus and Me Book Review and Giveaway

Image
Open Your Child’s Heart to the Amazing Love of Jesus This book retells the stories of Jesus. You can follow from His birth all he way to His death and then to His assending into Heaven. Each page has a simple prayer of encouragement to your child. The pages are filled with a different colored top each. I like that the pages aren't just white. Kids get bored easy and with color it seems to help their interest. What I personally think is cool is that in the back of the book it has a time line that kids can actually follow. Also there are a couple pages that have a Map and can you find pages Nice thick pages for the kids. Not cardboard just nice thick pages. God is an amazing Father and I love that there are so many ways for us to share His love with kids, these days. Jesus and Me was written by Stephen Elkins About the Author Stephen Elkins is an author, musician, and Grammy-nominated record producer. Elkins is also the author of the bestsel

Nuby Gator Grip™ Flip-it

Look no more for a cup that can hold up to your sporty child! My kids are constantly on the go. We have field trips, trips to the park, sports and more. This cup can take a beating! I am shocked as it didn't seem as tough as the normal heavy duty sippy cups the little ones in the house have. But my son has thrown his all over the place. This cup doesn't leak either. So if he leaves the cup on the floor I don't have to worry about cleaning up a mess. The Gator Grip Flip It cup is for ages 2 and up. This cup still fits in the side pocket of my diaper bag, so when out with him and the baby, it's easy to grab and go. I love that I found this cup for my son. The orange is perfect so that when out I always know which cup is his. Very easy to find. Plus with the grip on the sides he can't drop this easily. This is a good size drinking cup, it holds 15 oz. The hard straw runs down the base of the cup encouraging your child to hold the cup upright while drinking. I k

This step 4 training cup is great! It is BPA free for safe drinking, holds 9 oz of your child's favorite drink. This cup is the perfect way to keep your older child drinking the spill proof way. The semi level spout is just like drinking out of a regular drinking cup. They have designs and colors for boys and for girls. My daughter loves the bright colors. The Nuby Insulated Sippers are for ages 18m and up. ◦Soft silicone spout ◦Insulated base keeps drinks cooler for longer ◦Transitioning to open cup drinking ◦Encourages natural drinking action & oral development I try to prefill the cups and set them in the fridge for when she would like to have a drink. The insulated base does keep the drink cooler a lot longer then normal sippy cups. We can put milk in the cup and if it doesn't get drunk right away it is still cold and drinkable about an hour later. No more wasted milk. Available at these retailers: ◦Blain’s Farm & Fleet ◦Tuesday Morning ◦buybu

Hugo the Happy Starfish Simply Charming book review

Image
Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. Hugo is a little starfish whose home is at the bottom of the wide ocean. He longs to visit the real world, and one day he decides to go and find it. Hugo's journey to happiness isn't quite as straightforward as he hopes though. He is sent to a series of different islands where he is taught important character lessons. By the end of his journey, Hugo has visited fourteen islands, made many more friends, and, most importantly, learned how to be a better starfish. The book comes with a number of worksheets which are downloadable at no cost on our website. The book is offered in two editions (a version with Spanish introductory vocabulary and an English only version) as well as in different languages such as German, Spanish, French, Italian, and Portuguese. http://www.mystarfish.org/ My kids love to read about Hugo's adventures. All of his adventure's have morals to them. This one is about appreciation.

Pine Bros Softish Throat Drops

Image
Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. Ulysses S. Grant was President, the population of America hovered at 39 million, and the telephone was still a pipe dream, when in 1870 J. Herman Pine hung out a confectionery shingle on 8th Street above Walnut in Philadelphia and, along with his brother, sold their first batch of what they called 'Pine Brothers Glycerine Tablets.' In an attempt to relieve his own sore throat and those of his family members, Mr. Pine, a former German confectionery maker, determined that by combining the soothing natural qualities of glycerin with the healing properties of gum acacia, he could sooth and mitigate the mild discomfort of a sore throat. Add in some natural flavoring and a sweetener and voila, Pine Brothers Softish Throat Drops were born. "I have discovered something," Pine wrote, "which will give quick throat relief to thousands afflicted as I was." He added, "Perhaps I won't make much money o

Nuby Sea Scooper Bath Time Scooper

Image
The Nuby Sea Scooper is by far the neatest item I have reviewed yet! ◦ Fun and interactive You can just let the scooper hang on the wall or let your child's imagination run wild. Let them imagine they are Jonah being swallowed by the whale, or a sea caption whale hunting. Each scenario with this helps their little minds grow! ◦ Scoop all of the toys and keep them together in one place Perfect grip handle for easy scooping! I didn't even have a hard time holding onto it while it was wet. Large mouth opening so even the bulkier bath toys can be swallowed up and hung to dry. ◦ Clean up time is fun You can even hang the whale up on the wall of the bathtub and let your child toss the toys in, like a basketball hoop! This is such a fun item with so many uses! ◦ Allows toys to dry quick and easily I hate when bath toys still have water in them a couple days later when you go to give another bath. With the Sea Scooper you do not have that issue. The whale has large h
