Book Review - The Hidden Chamber in the Great Sphinx

About the Book
American archeologist Dr. Cliff Post and his friend Egyptian archeologist Dr. Abdul Saad discover a hidden chamber in the right paw of the Great Sphinx. Inside they find an ancient supercomputer left there thousands of years ago by ancient aliens. A terrorist group seeks to obtain possession of this supercomputer. The Hidden Chamber in the Great Sphinx is the first in a series featuring the adventures of American archeologist, Dr. Cliff Post.

About the Author
Linda Cadose has been to Egypt and have visited all of the historical sites she discusses in her book. She holds a Master's degree in technical and professional writing from Northeastern University. Her career as a Registered Respiratory Therapist and teacher has prevented me from seeking a writing career in the past. She has always had an interest in writing and is particularly interested in writing for the juvenile market. She live in Carver, MA. and grew up in Plymouth, MA.

My Take on the Book
This was a fun take on the mysteries of the Egyptian pyramids. While it is fiction, you can tell that the author did her research in the writing of the book.  Seeing that this book was geared toward kids I shared this story with my eldest and she loved it. She wanted me to keep reading from beginning to end without pause. The story at times was over the top, but for a kids story, it was great and had a little bit of everything in it. On top of this, the characters were fun and ones that you want to see more and more from! A great book!

Book Review - Cash Under the Mattress

About the Book
As part of National Financial Capability Month, the Huffington Post talks about being a good financial role model for your child from an early age.

Authors Philip Giroux and Sally Lamb provide additional resources in their new book Cash Under the Mattress, an in-depth inventory handbook that allows users to keep track of their finances and assets and map out their own legacy. Pared down to the essentials, Cash Under the Mattress is a short, simple and user-friendly handbook that makes planning effortless, offering in-depth checklists to “fill in the blank” of one’s life - keeping your important information all in one place.

And it's a great tool to get kids (and parents) started on a smart financial track.

About the Authors

Philip Giroux is the president of Toddco Landscape Co., Inc., a design-build landscape firm, located in Venice, California, which he founded in 1978. The firm has received numerous awards for outstanding designs. Philip has a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture from the University of Arizona.

He is the author of “Landscape for Dummies” by IDG. He writes, lectures, and does radio and T.V. interviews on the subject of landscape. He served as past President for the L.A. Chapter of the California Contractors Association, and is a member of the Southern California Horticultural Society.

Sally Lamb is a professional artist. She has a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Southern California. She has exhibited her award winning oil and watercolor paintings throughout the U.S. and is extensively represented in both private and corporate collections.

Currently her paintings are shown at Bergamot Station in her hometown of Santa Monica, California. Her work includes large wall murals, book illustrations, demonstrations, lectures, and educational film.

The authors both faced the loss of their parents during the same time period. These two childhood friends then got together to write this book to answer and eliminate the second guessing, confusion and anxiety that they had experienced.

My Take on the Book
This was a great book that I wish I had in the past because it is so easy to use and implement. There is so much within the pages of this book and I have to say that as long as you follow the step-by-step instructions within the book, you will have a resource that you can place in a safe place for when you really need it! The book was well laid out and is definitely a book that anyone should have. I only had one copy, but I think I am planning on getting a second copy for my wife to fill out as well. I also am interested in telling other family members about this because of the simplicity and ease in implementing this.

Book Review - Growing Happy Kids

About the Book 
We all want children to be happy and grow into productive, fulfilled adults, and according to parenting expert Maureen Healy, the secret to that success is in providing a foundation of inner confidence. Healy, a popular columnist for Psychology Today and the PBS Series, This Emotional Life, literally traveled the world in search of the best practices in raising inwardly strong children, and the connection between inner confidence and lasting happiness.

Her new book, Growing Happy Kids, draws on her Buddhist training, her background in child psychology, and the latest scientific research. Her book is packed with guidance and ideas to help parents achieve success raising kids who are strong and confident. Here she offers seven specific action plans parents can take to create inner confidence and cultivate a sense of emotional strength that lays the foundation for children's happiest lives.


1. Build Confidence Daily (even for 5 minutes!): It is the everyday things we do with our children that help them feel stronger, and happier no matter what. So you may say affirmations together on the way to school (they are captive here!) or read a bedtime story every night that teaches about your child’s power within --- the point is that small things done over and over again really build your child’s sense of strength.

2. Get Them Moving: Children need to move their bodies and get their energy released in a healthy way. Because physical activity, eating right, and a good night’s rest are the biological basis of your child’s emerging sense of self-confidence. Also, be sure they do something they love from making a garden to becoming a soccer star. (Let them pick it!)

3. Sign Them Up for 1 Weekly Confidence Building Activity: Your child’s weekly confidence building activity may be a sport like soccer or something else like singing lessons. Most importantly, they need to see themselves succeed (really important) and also have a regular way to see themselves master a task thus building outer then inner confidence.

4. See Success Together (visualize, affirm, meditate, pray, and sing): Oprah always says that if you can believe it, you can achieve it. So help your child believe more fully in him or herself. Perhaps it is doing affirmations together like “I love me” and “I am amazing in every way” or doing a guided meditation, singing a song that sparks them up or drawing a vision board. Let your creativity loose so you both become more self-assured. Have fun with this!!!

5. Get Inspired: Do something inspiring together whether it is going to see magnificent waterfalls, flying a new kite on the beach or learning hula-hooping. By doing something that lights your child up, they learn how to build a new skill and you’ll see their confidence soar.

6. Create an Uplifting Space: Decorate your child’s space so they see happy photos of themselves, their awards displayed, goals (or vision board) hung up and they have their favorite things all around them. By making the space feel good to your child they’ll realize this world is supporting them, their dreams can come true and everyone wants to see them succeed. (Feng Shui can help too!)

7. Play More: Happier children know the importance of play whether they are outdoors helping their parents’ garden or playing tag with their peers! So the more you help your child build skills, see their power within and play in their daily lives the happier they’ll be. I promise. This book helps any adult nurture in themselves and their children a deeper sense of confidence and ultimately happiness. The Five Building Blocks of Confidence presented in this book has made countless children and parents feel more confident.

About the Author 
Maureen Healy is a children’s emotional health expert with more than 20 years of global experience. She writes a popular blog for Psychology Today and the PBS Series, This Emotional Life. Her work has been featured on ABC, NBC, the CW and in popular magazines like Spirituality and Health and Parenting, too. Maureen also uniquely brings together western science and eastern wisdom to help any adult raise happier kids today.

She received a Bachelor of Arts in psychology and Masters of Business Administration from Clark University and a Masters level of completion in child clinical psychology from Fielding Graduate University. She has also conducted studies in Tibetan Buddhism in Asia, Europe and the United States.

My Take on the Book
This was a great book that will help you redefine the way in which you look at happiness for your children and the way in which you will envision the building of confidence in your children. I know that as a I am always looking for ways in which to build this confidence and self esteem in my own kids and some days are easier than others, yet I always know how important this parental task is. The author does an amazing job at melding together Eastern and Western lines of thought which is something that I would not have considered in the past, but after reading this makes perfect sense. The book is full of great ideas that are practical and easy to implement and are ones that I would highly recommend any parent consider when working with their own child.The other nice thing about this book was the experience that the author brings to her book, as you can tell throughout the book that her experience has made her well suited to write and share her thoughts on this and as you read further you will be surprised and encouraged to change some of your own parenting ways to encourage the self confidence in your own child on a daily basis!

Book Review - Moo Kitty Finds a Home

About the Book
A sad turn of events leaves Moo Kitty alone, grieving and frightened of the world beyond his rose garden. Love, compassion and friendship are just some of the life lessons that Moo Kitty learns on his journey to find a new home. Join Moo and his friends in this charming and beautifully illustrated story.

About the Author
Fond of creatures great and small, Valerie believes each deserves love, compassion, adequate care and admiration. After having lived in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, from 1993-2011, she currently makes her home at Bee Tree Farm, in the heart of Kentucky's bluegrass horse country.

Valerie makes the most of this location as an equestrian, spending time riding her two horses. She shares her home with a variety of four-legged creatures, including a dog and five cats.

She's a fan of the outdoors in general, and enjoys making connections with the Earth through gardening. Along with her love of animals, she deeply appreciates the occasional good laugh with human friends and family.

Having graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from East Stroudsburg University, Valerie concentrated in Creative Writing and has always wanted to be a writer. An avid reader, she was inspired to write and illustrate her first book, Moo Kitty Finds a Home, after she rescued real-life Moo Kitty and gave him a forever home. She believed the resulting children's book would help educate young readers about the importance of animal rescue, and especially adult pet adoption.

The real Moo Kitty is alive and well, enjoying making daily excursions to inspect the flower garden at Bee Tree Farm. He can often be found in his favorite chair, napping on his mint green blanket. Along with so much else about the bucolic setting, Moo Kitty inspires his human to further pursue her writing career.

Now aspiring to be a full-time author, Valerie is currently planning her next book. She speaks to libraries, classrooms, church groups and community and civic organizations about adult animal rescue, sheltering and adoption.

My Take on the Book
As an animal lover, this was a wonderful story of the joys of adopting a new pet. What I loved though was the passion in which the author places on her topic and the message about the importance of considering adoption of adult pets, not merely babies. To me this is important as there are so many adult animals that get left behind because people want kittens or puppies instead, and this book shows that even adult animals need love and companionship too. My girls thoroughly enjoyed her story and have been asking me over and over to read this story to them. The only drawback is that it is getting them to ask about us adopting another pet and we already have two adult cats! This was a great story for the whole family!

Book Review - All Pro Dad

About the Book 
“An NFL player becomes an All-Pro by relentlessly focusing on the fundamentals and executing them with sheer determination. The same is true to become an All Pro Dad. This book not only highlights the fundamentals of fatherhood, but also gives dads a winning game plan to do their most important job well.” –Tony Dungy, Super Bowl winning coach and NBC Sports commentator

The game-winning playbook for every father

Dads, do you want to be a hero to your kids? A go-to coach for your teens? A husband your wife knows she can count on? All Pro Dad lays out a game plan built on seven essential fathering truths and ultra-practical insights for the questions every dad needs answered at some point. Like football, fatherhood is about winning. But it’s more than just scoring points. It’s about winning the hearts and minds of your children and leaving a rich legacy of love for future generations.

With gut-level “huddle” questions to ask your children, and firsthand stories from well-recognized dads (CBS broadcaster James “JB” Brown, Chick-Fil-A founder and CEO S. Truett Cathy, Grammy Award–winning recording artist Michael W. Smith, FedEx Express COO and president, international, Michael Ducker, and more), All Pro Dad will stir you, equip you, and inspire you toward the goal of being a champion father and a hero to your kids.

About the Author
Mark Merrill is the founder and president of Family First, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to strengthening the family. Mark hosts the Family Minute with Mark Merrill, a nationally syndicated daily radio program. He has appeared on NBC’s Today Show, numerous ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC network affiliates and national radio programs. His comments and writings have appeared in publications including USA Today, the Washington Times, and Sports Illustrated.

My Take on the Book 
As a father I am always looking for books that can provide me with a better understanding of what it takes to be a top notch dad. This book brings together great ideas for any dad that gives any reader food for thought on how you can become that father you always wanted to be. I loved the author's use of the 7 M's (Makeup, Mindset, Motive, Method, Model, and Message) as motivation for meeting that goals that he set before his reader. The seven points (or goals) were easy to comprehend and to remember and you can easily see these seven as a mantra that you can put into action soon after reading the book if you so choose. The book also did a great job at intertwining scripture into the book to show the reader that the God is in the works as he works to mold you into a top notch dad as well. This was a great book that I highly recommend to any current father or dad to be!

"SEE 'CHIMPANZEE,' SAVE CHIMPANZEES" PROGRAM EXTENDED

Swinging into theaters April 20 with a $10.6 million opening- weekend performance, “Chimpanzee” proved so popular among audiences that Disneynature is extending the “See ‘Chimpanzee,’ Save Chimpanzees” conservation initiative for a second week. For every moviegoer who sees “Chimpanzee” through May 3, 2012, Disneynature will make a donation to the Jane Goodall Institute (JGI) through the Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund to protect chimpanzees today and tomorrow.

“In theaters just five days, ‘Chimpanzee’ has already given us a lot to celebrate,” said Alan Bergman, president, The Walt Disney Studios. “Led by a young chimpanzee named Oscar, ‘Chimpanzee’ has won the hearts of audiences nationwide. It’s because of that success that we decided to extend our program with the Jane Goodall Institute.”

“See ‘Chimpanzee,’ Save Chimpanzees”—initially slated for the film’s opening week through April 26—will continue through the film’s second week till May 3—a first-ever extension to a Disneynature conservation program.

The news was well received by Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and UN Messenger of Peace. “We couldn’t be happier to extend this collaboration to help the Jane Goodall Institute better protect chimpanzees and the places they call home,” she said. “A film like ‘Chimpanzee’ helps spread the passion we have for these extraordinary beings, sharing the truly relatable moments experienced by Oscar and his fellow chimpanzees in a way that will hopefully inspire audiences to continue their support long after the movie ends.”

Rated G by the MPAA, “Chimpanzee” is in theaters now.

ABOUT THE MOVIE 
Disneynature takes moviegoers deep into the forests of Africa with “Chimpanzee,” a new True Life Adventure introducing an adorable young chimpanzee named Oscar and his entertaining approach to life in a remarkable story of family bonds and individual triumph. Oscar’s playful curiosity and zest for discovery showcase the intelligence and ingenuity of some of the most extraordinary personalities in the animal kingdom. Working together, Oscar’s chimpanzee family—including his mom, Isha, and the group’s savvy leader, Freddy — navigates the complex territory of the forest. The world is a playground for little Oscar and his fellow young chimpanzees, who’d rather make mayhem than join their parents for an afternoon nap. But when Oscar’s family is confronted by a rival band of chimpanzees, he is left to fend for himself until a surprising ally steps in and changes his life forever. Directed by Alastair Fothergill (“African Cats” and “Earth”) and Mark Linfield (“Earth”), and narrated by Tim Allen (Disney•Pixar’s “Toy Story 3,” ABC’s “Last Man Standing”), “Chimpanzee” is in theaters now.

Book Review - Of Pebbles & Grenades: 3 Keys To Self-Mastery: A Manual for Becoming a Secret Agent of Love & Transformation

About the Book
I am writing to those who wish to live life beyond the average standards presented by society—in any country and culture in which you find yourself. I’m reaching out to those who wish to bring greater meaning to their personal life, to be more productive, and to be more effective leaders in their relationships—at home, at work, and wherever they are. Leadership is about influencing others in some way. If you are alive, you are in a position of leadership. The question is: What kind of leader are you? Leadership presupposes a vision and a degree of self-mastery to pursue that vision with a determination that will not be denied. Do you have a desire to bring out the best in others? Is this you?

Ninety-eight percent of us act as if external events (pebbles thrown into our pond) determine our responses (ripples) believing the pebble causes the ripple. And so we live like victims rippling happily or unhappily at the mercy of chance or of some providential force we do not understand. We spend much of our time and energy furiously reacting to these external events. We live in a state of anxiety, hoping the world will be kind to us as it defines us through the things that befall us. We give lip service to individuality and freedom but succumb to the standards imposed on us from outside.

To live at the mercy of events we do not control is the universal condition of life everywhere on this planet. This is the existential core of our daily experience, whoever you are and wherever you are. As we wake up and as we fall asleep, we all share this experience of uncertainty and anxiety.

We live on this foundation of sand and we attempt to cope with it in our own way. We find more or less functional ways to bury this fear of being victimized by life as we face one event after another. We build stories about life ranging from the miraculous to the merciless. So, we are either blessed miraculously or battered mercilessly by forces outside of our control. This dilemma unites us all, for it is no respecter of gender, age, race, culture, or geography. How we face this dilemma differentiates us into victims or leaders in our dance with destiny.

Victims use passive or aggressive ways in a futile attempt to control others, hoping to find security or happiness by changing the outside world. That is the foundation of sand. Leaders are masters of themselves first, assuming responsibility for their actions. From that solid foundation, they attempt to influence others aiming to bring out their best.

This is a leadership manual that starts by laying out the building blocks of self-mastery. OF PEBBLES & GRENADES: Steps to Self-Mastery, is the personal development phase of our leadership program designed to assist you achieve a level of influence so you can make a difference wherever you are. If this is you, read on.

My Take on the Book
This was a well written book that truly opens your mind to the possibilities around you. The book is a self-help book, but it is much more than that. As you read through this book you find yourself seeing that the author truly is offering you an opportunity to grown beyond yourself and to become more than you already are. He speaks to the strong emotions that can hold you back (emotional grenades) as well as provides you tools to be able to grow and learn and rise above the limits that you may have set for yourself without even knowing. The book was an easy read and is one that is highly engaging and will challenge you to start making changes from the beginning to the very end of the book! I highly recommend this to all!

Book Review - Fatal Sunset: Deadly Vacations

About the Book
No one ever believes their dream vacation can instantly turn into a tragic nightmare...until it's too late.

Some tourists vanish without a trace. Over 170 people have disappeared from cruise ships around the world since 1995, several under very suspicious circumstances. Others have their lives senselessly stolen, like the 8-year old boy sucked into an unprotected pool drain at a major resort, leaving his mother crying out his name as security staff held her at gunpoint. Or 22-year old Nolan Webster, denied proper medical care after being pulled unconscious from a Cancun resort pool, only to have his dead body left in plain view for hours and his parents billed for his room.

Vacations are meant to be joyous and fun. Sometimes terrible things happen unexpectedly. A parasailing newlywed plummets hundreds of feet to her death on the last day of her honeymoon when her harness snaps in mid-air. Hikers make a fatal plunge on an improperly-marked Kauai cliffside trail. And of course, there's every mother's nightmare: the disappearance of Natalee Holloway while on a high school graduation trip to Aruba with members of her senior class.

FATAL SUNSET, the latest exposé from award-winning and bestselling author Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff is not meant to do for vacations what "Jaws" did for beaches. "I'm not trying to scare you from going on a trip. I'm revealing these hidden true stories in order to make sure you understand what danger lurks in between the sun and sand and that perfect getaway," explains Nemcoff, the writer behind Kindle bestsellers "The Death of Osama Bin Laden" and "Where's My F*cking Latte?", an insiders look at the world of Hollywood celebrity assistants that was not only featured on Access Hollywood but has spent over four years straight at the top of Amazon's top-selling chart in the categories of "Television" and "Movies."

"Sometimes travelers put themselves into situations beyond their limitations or worse, beyond their control," says Nemcoff. "People on vacation tend to engage in riskier activities than they are normally used to. Sometimes things can instantly turn deadly because you made a bad decision or were in the wrong place at the wrong time."

In addition to FATAL SUNSET's shocking stories of deadly shark attacks, drownings, suspicious encounters, unfortunate accidents and murder, there is one part of the book that still haunts Nemcoff. "I interviewed Nolan Webster's mom, Maureen. In the book she explains what it was like to get that terrible phone call about her son's death. It's something I think about every day."

"There's one piece of advice I've learned researching this book," tells Nemcoff. "Dare to be aware."

About the Author
Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff is a bestselling and award-winning author who has been known to occasionally moonlight as a voice-over artist and independent journalist. He is a former Sirius Satellite Radio drive time show and T.V. host that has been featured by Playboy Magazine and Access Hollywood. He is the writer behind Kindle bestsellers “The Death of Osama Bin Laden” and “Where’s My F***ing Latte?”, an insiders look at the world of Hollywood celebrity assistants that was not only featured on Access Hollywood, but has spent over four years straight at the top of Amazon’s top-selling chart in the categories of “Television” and “Movies”. Mark currently resides in Los Angeles.

My Take on the Book
As you read this book you have to somewhat pinch yourself to be reminded that this is a work of non-fiction. The book, while short in pages, is heavy in facts and details and it draws you in by the stories and situations that the author relates. The book makes you rethink your own actions when it comes to the vacations that you have been on in the past and the ones that you will go on in the future. The take home in this book is truly to be aware of your surroundings and be safe, but there is so much more that you can learn from reading this book. It was a great book that I would highly recommend to all!

Book Review - Celebrating Beginnings and Endings

About the Book
Do you want to make Mother’s Day, or any other day for that matter, extra special? Instead of the usual boring cards, corsages or dinner out, or even hundreds of family pictures packed into an expensive digital photo display, how about something truly remarkable and different?

Paula Pugh, author of the book Celebrating Beginnings and Endings, has spent much of her adult life studying and refining the art and science of capturing life’s most meaningful moments. Her amazing book captures over 100 different and innovative ways people can connect with family and friends in wonderful new ways and create truly meaningful moments in their lives.

“The first thing you need to do,” she says, “is to ask, ‘what does she really want?’ You are searching for ideas which lead you to that very special way of telling her how much she means to you. You might even go and ask her yourself! You may be amazed at what surfaces.”

Her book chronicles a multitude of ways to turn otherwise humdrum events or situations into memories that last for lifetimes. Here are some examples:

One man’s mother was in her sixties, divorced about ten years ago, still living in the home where he grew up. He asked his mom to make a “Honey Do” list for him. On Mother’s Day
he and his wife And kids spent the day doing everything she could think of that needed attention in the house.

One woman and her siblings lived near her mom. One year, the three grown “kids” held a family dinner at Mom’s house featuring the favorite family recipes. The grandkids were invited and it turned into a major league never to be forgotten laugh and cry fest at the stories and memories.

Another woman’s mom lived far away in a small retirement home with an ailing husband. Since her mom didn’t need more stuff, she decided to look back in her old photos. She chose one of her favorites showing her on a pony when she was about eight years old and wrote a letter to her mom telling her everything she could remember about that time in her life and the role that her mom played.

For Father’s Day, one man took his 87 year old uncle fishing, as a thank you for teaching him how to fish when he was a little boy. His uncle landed his very first king salmon, a bright shining silver fish that weighed just over 25 pounds and still carries the photo of the fish sitting on his lap with him everywhere he goes.

One woman’s mom passed away ten years ago, but to honor her mother she simply decided to wear one of her mother’s old hats to church on Mother’s Day.

What are you going to do for your mom and dad this year? Instead of buying flowers and sticking them on the table to wilt and be thrown away, how about planting whole bunches of flowers in the garden so that they bloom all summer long? In fact, be selective and get flowering perennials so that they last for years!

And if you are really up for making a lasting impression, plant some trees!

She continues to share the stories of wonderful celebration of others at her blog http://paulapugh.blogspot.com

Paula Pugh is a master at how to add meaning and freshness to old traditions and current transitions. You become the designer, planner and creator as you learn how to apply her incredibly simple but effective formula to transform things you do from ordinary to extraordinary. Her techniques will inspire you to truly mark your memorable moments and add depth and healing to your life as well as those you touch.

All the ideas contained in the book derive from a concept she developed called “Mark the Moment”. Each action emerged from Paula Pugh's interaction with the women in her classes and retreats over a 20 year period. This remarkable book also offers story examples for inspiration and gives people tools to deepen their relationships with family, friends, co-workers and themselves.

About the Author
Paula Pugh lives on Whidbey Island in the Pacific Northwest with her patient husband, crazy dog and two wonderful elderly horses. She plays the violin in the Saratoga Chamber Orchestra and in weekly quartet gatherings. Her two daughters are both health care providers. She has two granddaughters with whom she delights in creating meaningful moments. Paula has more than thirty years of experience as facilitator and educator. In 1997 she started Sound Wisdom Retreats, LLC which presents classes and retreats where women learn about living a healthy and balanced life. Paula has degrees from St. Olaf College, San Francisco State University, and is trained as a Peer Spirit facilitator.

My Take on the Book
This book is all about celebrating special moments in one's lives. What I loved about the book was that it was well broken down into categories that made sense and the information shared in all of the areas was practical and to the point. It held so many great ideas for how to celebrate these different moments that one could easily call this a reference manual in a way! The book truly encourages all to go beyond themselves and know how much being with others means, and through the ideas in this book, you will be able to create some special moments that all will appreciate and enjoy!

Product Review - K'NEX - The Original Lincoln Logs – White River Ranch Set

About the Product
Are you a cowboy or cowgirl at heart? Look no further! Now you can build your very own Lincoln Logs Rocky Mountain Ranch, complete with a blacksmith shop, a down-home barn, friendly cows and horses, and other colorful figures and accessories. It's packed with 150 Lincoln Logs pieces for the ultimate in country-buildin' fun.

The Lincoln Logs Rocky Mountain Ranch includes complete instructions for 1 model, plus building ideas for 2 additional models

A convenient storage container allows you to take your Lincoln Logs Rocky Mountain Ranch on the road

My Take on the Product

My family and I were very excited next K’NEX shipment. In this we had two different new K'NEX sets and both were a hit. This set brought me back though as it was the original Lincoln Logs that I remembered as a child, with some updated fun things that you could use to make the set into a fun ranch. The kids loved making the ranch and bringing in other toys to make the ranch come alive. For me though, I loved the fact that kids can be creative with this and move beyond the set instructions. The set is complete with everything that you would need to set this creativity alive and for my girls, this was definitely the case and I know it will be for your kids as well!

DVD Review - Busytown Mysteries: Mysteries Of Busytown

I have to say that the Busytown Mysteries Series are a huge hit in our home. As a parent I have to appreciate what the series is done in talking about the friendship, collaboration, sharing, as well as investigative techniques are fun and interactive and so engaging for young children. These DVD’s continue the great series of episodes that are on the television for children to watch.

That being said, this DVD had wonderful artistic value as well as a great storyline and music. My daughter has already watched them numerous times and we just received the other day. As a parent I'm always looking for great television shows that have valuable messages inherent with them, and I know that this series is one that I never have to worry about the content, as it always has value and the message is something that we all wish to have our children learn.

DVD Review - Yo Gabba Gabba: There's a Party in My City! Live Concert

About the DVD
I have never seen Yo Gabba Gabba live in concert before, so when I received this DVD I knew I was in for a treat. I had seen their television show before and my kids have enjoyed them since they were young. They blend of music and excitement is contagious and the kids thrive on it. This DVD is great and incorporates wonderful music and engages kids in the concert itself. So even if you are not able to attend a live concert you can have a live concert right in your own family room. One word of caution though, the songs are very contagious and by watching us don't be surprised if your kids start singing the songs day in and day out, and before you know it, you will be too. This is a great DVD for the entire family.

On top of this DVD, the book that comes along with it is fun and goes well with the DVD itself. This nice collection is available for a reasonable price and at least for my family was a great addition to our collection.

CD Review - Kidz Bop Ultimate Hits

This is going to be an amazing CD. If you are a fan of Kidz Bop already (as I am), this CD brings together some of the BIGGEST hits that they have had onto one album and completely lets it rip! What is great about this franchise is that the CD's are clean, and no matter what the content of the original song. As a parent you do not have to be worried about this CD as the language is appropriate to young ears and they do not miss any of the color that might be there otherwise.

My girls have been dancing up a storm since we received this and will not let us play anything else and I am sure if your kids are anything like mine, you will have the same thing happen there too!

Below I have listed all of the tracks on this CD and I think you too will be impressed with everything that is there, I know that I was!

Book Review - Together: Growing Appetites for God

About the Book
Overwhelmed and discouraged with her own lack of personal devotion to God’s word, and with four small children requiring her attention, Carrie Ward knew something had to change. So, armed with a much-prayed-over plan, Carrie decided to read the entire Bible with her children—infant through preschool age—and began reading one chapter out loud over breakfast each morning. Within a matter of weeks she began to see a transformation in her family as Scripture guided their lives in a new way. Just in time for Mother’s Day, Ward’s easy-to-read new book, Together: Growing Appetites for God (Moody Publishers, April 2012), is part personal story and part practical guide for other moms also desiring to impart biblical truths to their little ones. In Together, Ward speaks from her perspective as an everyday mama who learned to lead her children through the Bible, and how they grew to love it.

My Take on the Book 
This book is great if you are looking for ways and inspiration regarding one mother's quest at reading the bible to her children while they were young. The author writes in a fun and engaging way and her use of humor makes the reading the book light but at the same time meaningful. I can see after reading this that this process is not an easy one and instead it is one that takes some definite time and effort. What was best for me were the guiding questions in each chapter which helped me to grapple and better understand what I was reading and translate this into action.

Book Review - Parenting With Scripture

About the Book
Written by a Christian mom who saw the need for a topical Scripture reference guide for parents, Parenting with Scripture is an easy-to-use guide for parents of children ages 2 through teen that will equip you to instill God’s principles into the everyday lives of your children. With 101 alphabetically sorted topics ranging from apathy, charity, fighting, pride and worry; parents can easily flip through the pages of Parenting with Scripture to find the perfect topic and take advantage of those teaching moments in parenting where the issues and questions you face with your children can mean the difference between a Godly lesson learned or a opportunity missed.

My Take on the Book 
I love the fact that this book is set up in such an easy to understand way. As a parent you are always looking for ways in which you can help your child to be stronger in their own faith as well as understand how faith and the bible connects with their own life and this book makes it so easy. With every issue being categorized alphabetically you have the opportunity to be able to find exactly what you would like. Also, the book gives you so many conversation starters and ways to incorporate this into your everyday routine, making it so simple for any parent to understand better how they may be able to incorporate spirituality into any conversation with their child.
