 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg

Are you ready to blossom?

Faith is like a flower. In order to grow, it needs soil, water, and sun—food for the spirit. That’s just what this devotional is. Spiritual food to help your faith grow strong and beautiful.

Featuring 365 days of wisdom from your favorite Faithgirlz! authors, as well as quotes and questions from real girls like you, this devotional offers pages of inspiration on everything from navigating friendships, to taming the tongue, to trusting God in everything, big and small. Growing up can be tough, but Jesus is guiding you every step of the way.

Beauty of Believing combines the talents of Faithgirlz! authors Tasha K. Douglas, Mona Hodgson, Kristi Holl, Lois Walfred Johnson, Allia Zobel Nolan, and Nancy Rue, and their words of wisdom will help your faith bloom and flourish as you grow into the girl God wants you to be.

My Take on the Book
Being a young girl today is not easy, and holding on and building your faith as a young girl can be even more difficult. This book takes girls on an annual journey with daily devotions that are down-to-Earth and allow for girls to really get to know themselves and God in a new way. What I enjoyed was seeing how each day the devotions were things that my daughter (who is 10) could relate to and understand. The book was no so dense that she got lost in it, but instead allowed her to reflect and actually have conversations with her mom and I about what she was reading which was even more powerful to me as a parent. All-in-all this was a well written book that really allows your daughters to get to know God in a fun and engaging way. Well done!

DVD Review - Hot Wheels Battle Force 5: Season 2 - Vol 4

Hot Wheels Battle Force 5: Season 2 - Vol 4
 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg

About the DVD
Grab a seat for episodes 16-20 of HOT WHEELS BATTLE FORCE 5: FUSED SEASON 2!

The Battle Force 5 team, armed with their futuristic arsenal on wheels, is led by Vert Wheeler and their Blue Sentient mentor, Sage, who have both sworn to protect Earth and the multiverse from alien domination.

When the call to action comes, Vert and the BF5 crew rush into their secret underground hub, don their shock suits, blast out through launch tubes in super cool vehicles, and race fearlessly into battlezones to stop their enemies – the Red Sentients – from achieving their nefarious goals.

EPISODES:
16. Hunt for The Magmatrox
17. Sol Survivor
18. The Blue Tide
19. Legacy
20. Shadow Runners



My Take on the DVD
This was a continuation of the season two episodes I earlier reviewed. Even though I watched this series for the first time in season two I quickly was able to catch on and get into the action. I for one, had a blast watching this. I enjoyed the action (of course) but also the animation was strong and the characters are memorable. I was surprised to as little people that knew of this series, but alas, that is their loss and now I have been encouraging more and more to watch this as it is a ton of fun. These five episodes continue to adventure and you truly get pulled into the action. I enjoyed these episodes and the overall series and think you will too!

DVD Review - Hot Wheels Battle Force 5: Season 2, Volume 3

Hot Wheels Battle Force 5: Season 2, Volume 3
 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg

About the DVD
Racing against the clock, Vert Wheeler and the Battle Force 5 crew – along with their allies Zen and Master T – wage a war against the evil Red Sentients to prevent them from taking over the multiverse.

Traversing treacherous battle zones, Vert, Zoom and the rest of BF5 use high-tech gadgets to complete their missions including vehicles with incredible amounts of speed and torque and scanners with interdimensional sonar capabilities. There’s a lot riding on BF5 as they work tirelessly to protect Earth, their mentor, Sage, and focus on the race against time to save the totality of civilization.

EPISODES:
11. Fusion Confusion
12. Mouth of the Dragon
13. Full Throttle
14. Stone Cold Warrior
15. The Shadow Zone



My Take on the DVD
In this DVD you get five action packed episodes of the Hot Wheels series. Get ready to sit on the edge of your seat for battles, high speed action and even some evil-doers trying to take control. This is a series that not a lot of people seem to have any idea about, but it was engaging and fun and definitely action-packed. After watching this I wish that there had been more episodes on one DVD, but that is just my own bias. All-in-all though this was a fun series and great episodes and I highly recommend them all to you!

Click Communications: BLOGGER BUTTONS &emdash;




My Take on the Book
This was an action packed adventure that I enjoyed! On top of this, there was a ton more humor than I would have expected too. Even my daughters were laughing along, so it was not just humor aimed at adults, but it was for kids too. I now have to say that even as an adult I find that I too can get hooked to a series like this!  While the DVD is not long, it is still engaging and by the end you will be wondering when you can see more, or at least I was. This was a great DVD and is a fun series. If you have never seen it, you should!

Book Review - The Cat's Pajamas

The Cat's Pajamas

 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg

About the Book From the Authors' Perspective
The Cat’s Pajamas is an illustrated exploration of the etymology of a very common expression, or lingo, which is a great word in and of itself: He thinks he’s the cat’s pajamas! Or (you might say to that special someone), Baby, you’re the cat’s pajamas.
The Cat's Pajamas

Seriously? The cat’s pajamas? That’s a good thing? Why? Is that something you’re sure you want to be? Who coined this expression? What was his or her intent? These are some of the things I think about when I hear words, especially words like these, words like the cat’s pajamas. And, as a lifelong fan of myth, of folk tales, of inventive storytelling, I assume that behind every crazy, unbelievable fiction there’s something that’s actually real, something that happened, someone who a long time ago and in a land far, far away, did something a lot like that something we imagine today as being purely fantastic, incredible, ridiculous.
The Cat's Pajamas

I’ll just come right out and say it: I believe there was a time when cats wore pajamas.

How could there not have been? No one says, You’re the dog’s underpants,because dogs never wore underpants. But cats obviously wore pajamas. It’s as clear as day.
The Cat's Pajamas

I have pictures that prove it. Prove may be too strong a word because, yes, I’ve drawn these pictures. And I continue to draw them. They’reinterpretive. They’re authentic reproductions from the imaginary historical record. Does that make them less true than, say, a fossil? Perhaps. Still, I am not an archeological paleontologist. I’m a novelist, one who likes to draw.

My Take on the Book
This was a fun book that really takes on a word/saying that gets thrown around that people really do not understand. I love how the author weaves this into a story and on top of this you get illustrations that are engaging and so much fun! My daughters really enjoyed reading this together and on top of a fun engaging story, you also get a story with a message about being different and making a difference, and it is these type of messages that are so important for all of us as parents to see and share with our kids. All-in-all this was a great book that is so much fun. I highly encourage all to share this with your own kids!

DVD Review - Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return

Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return

 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg


About the Movie
Kids of all ages will love this musical, animated journey back to the magical world of Oz that features a legendary cast, including Lea Michele from TV’s “Glee,” Dan Akroyd, Martin Short, Jim Belushi, Patrick Stewart, Kelsey Grammar and more. A devious new villain, the Jester, rules over Oz and Dorothy must return from Kansas to rescue her old friends: the Lion, the Scarecrow and the Tin Man. Set to irresistible new songs from Academy Award®-nominated singer/songwriter Bryan Adams and featuring a host of delightful new characters, this animated return to Oz is sure to be a family-favorite filled with fun and laughs for generations to come!

Special Features
  • Legends of Oz: The Music of Oz 
  • Legends of Oz: The Legacy of Oz 
  • Sing Along the Yellow Brick Road 
  • Legends of Oz: Activity Sheet 
  • Theatrical Trailer



My Take on the Movie
For anyone that loves the Wizards of Oz, you will also enjoy this new tale, bringing Dorothy back to Oz when they most need her. Made for kids, we watched this with my girls and they really enjoyed it. That being said, I too enjoyed the film. I found it to be fun and enjoyable, with fun characters that were memorable. That being said the animation is not the same as you would see in some animated films, but never-the-less, the movie is still engaging and moves along quickly. One of the things that I liked was that the movie was very targeted at kids and is not written for adults to understand while leaving kids confused. Definitely a family film and one that you can enjoy over and over again!

DVD Review - Fight for Fallujah

Fight for Fallujah
 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg

About the DVD
The Fight for Fallujah chronicles the intense 2004 insurgent attacks and military operations in Fallujah, which defined a new era of military engagement in Iraq.



My Take on the DVD
This was a DVD that really made me think about what was happening overseas in a completely different way. I thought I understood the conflict, but I quickly found out that this was not the case, and I left after watching this with my eyes opened, and my perspectives changed. While I know there was more that could have been shared, it still was a powerful DVD that really explained a lot, while leaving things for me to continue learning about after watching this movie too!

DVD Review - Through the Wormhole Season 4

Through the Wormhole

 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg


About the Book
The vastness of our universe lends itself to an equally vast number of mysteries, both within our everyday world and far beyond. This fourth season of Through the Wormhole continues to gather the greatest scientific minds in an attempt to answer some of the most fascinating questions of our existence. Is there really a God particle? Can our minds be hacked? And is reality even real? Researchers, biologists, computer scientists, engineers, and other experts will lend their decades of discoveries toward shedding light on these phenomena and more. With over seven hours of mind-bending information, these ten episodes take a huge scientific step toward replacing philosophical theories with cold, hard facts and real-life applications. Yet in the end, minds are enlightened, and even more questions are raised, which can only lead to another journey Through the Wormhole.




My Take on the Book
WOW, this series is one that I have never seen before, but now that I have watched this I can say that I now want to see the other seasons! This series will make you think deeply and see the cosmos in a whole new way. The series brings up many concepts and ideas that I would have not thought of, and if you are like me, always looking for something to push you further, this series will do just that! This is a well done series that will open your eyes and your mind!

DVD Review - Here Comes Honey Boo Boo: A Very Boo Halloween


 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg


About the Book
What could be more entertaining than celebrating fall with Honey Boo Boo and the whole family? First there’s the fright-filled Halloween, with Uncle Poodle getting stuck in a pumpkin and the family getting hopelessly lost in a corn maze. And there’s the shocking reveal of Mama June’s new look and facing her fear of mayonnaise. But when a freak accident leaves Pumpkin unable to trick-or-treat, will Honey Boo Boo save Halloween and get the most candy ever? Then comes Thanksgiving and the biggest meal of the year. The girls make a scarecrow and Alana gets to see live turkeys on the farm, but Mama June is still determined to keep the family feast cheap. Still through all the laughs and mayhem, the bountiful candy and food, you’ll come to realize that family is the truly the greatest gift of fall.




My Take on the Book
This was different than many other episodes of Honey Boo Boo that you may have seen in the past. This takes on more of a movie per se with many different things happening all tied together by a common thread. That being said there is some fun as well as drama, and all-in-all in the end you get to see people that you have com to know in a new light. A fun DVD for any Honey Boo Boo fan.

Book Review - Roaming Reindeer





 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg


About the Book
For parents who forget to hide their Elf daily or whose children have spotted the Christmas toy in stores to only have the tradition spoiled, there is a fresh and exciting Christmas keepsake making its debut this holiday season.

Angela Meju’s Christmas keepsake and children’s book, Roaming Reindeer™, is a touching tale celebrating teamwork, good manners and the holiday season, and will serve as a fresh, new Christmas tradition for families and classrooms around the country.


Roaming Reindeer™ is centered on Gus and Sam, two of Santa’s reindeer, who decide to help Santa by visiting little girls and boys to report back on who is naughty and who is nice.

When the pair realize there isn’t enough time to visit all of the children, they call on their friends for help. The reindeers are sent off in pairs of two and are assigned a home to visit. Reindeer 1 is in charge of going back to Santa to report naughty children while Reindeer 2 stays to keep watch.


The book comes in a keepsake box which includes a Reindeer 1 and Reindeer 2. Children and siblings will keep a close eye to make sure their reindeer stay together until Christmas Eve, when they leave to help Santa deliver presents—until returning next year to keep watch!


About the Author
Angela Meju

Author Angela Meju is a nurse who currently lives in Austin, TX with her husband and two children. She was inspired to write Roaming Reindeer™ to create her own Christmas tradition with her children, whose excitement and anticipation of Santa’s arrival grows every year.

My Take on the Book
If you are familiar with ELF ON THE SHELF, which brings one of Santa's mischievous elves into your home to keep an eye out for good children and report back to Santa, then this ROAMING REINDEER will sound familiar. 

ROAMING REINDEER brings two reindeer to your home. Reindeer #1 and Reindeer #2 are in charge of moving around the house and watching your children. They report back to Santa and hopefully all reports will be positive and presents will be delivered on Christmas morning. However if Reindeer #1 sees an misbehavior , he immediately returns to the North Pole to let Santa know of the problem. Reindeer #2 will stay in your home to keep watch. Of course Reindeer #1 returns again .

So if you have not begun the tradition and fun activity of ELF ON THE SHELF, ROAMING REINDEER, may be something you would like to take a look at for your children during the holiday season.

I am sure , like ELF ON THE SHELF, the reindeer sights will be fun for your child and may encourage good behavior too.

Book Review - Kitchen Science Lab for Kids: 52 Family Friendly Experiments from Around the House

Kitchen Science Lab for Kids: 52 Family Friendly Experiments from Around the House
 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg

About the Book
At-home science provides an environment for freedom, creativity and invention that is not always possible in a school setting. In your own kitchen, it's simple, inexpensive, and fun to whip up a number of amazing science experiments using everyday ingredients. Science can be as easy as baking. Hands-On Family: Kitchen Science Lab for Kids offers 52 fun science activities for families to do together. The experiments can be used as individual projects, for parties, or as educational activities groups. Kitchen Science Lab for Kids will tempt families to cook up some physics, chemistry and biology in their own kitchens and back yards. Many of the experiments are safe enough for toddlers and exciting enough for older kids, so families can discover the joy of science together.


My Take on the Book
The author is a mother of three children . She used her knowledge and creativity to write a book full of wonderful experiments using household items or items easy to locate. Even her youngest child was able to participate in the experiments. Her oldest child used the experiments to think more critically and analytically. Some of the experiments can be performed inside and some need to be done outside.
Liz Lee Heinecke made sure every "lab" listed the materials needed, safety tips and hints, protocol or steps, the science behind the experiment, and a creative enrichment question or activity.

One of my favorite "labs" was called FRANKENWORMS. I can see my girls loving this one. You and your child will use baking soda and vinegar to bring to "life" the gummy worms candy. 

So many easy family friendly experiments. Maybe you will consider putting aside a day in which the entire family participates in one of the experiments together. Sounds like fun to me!

Book Review - Captain Joe's Gift

Captain Joe's Gift
 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg

About the Book
The Captain Joe Series was designed as a tool for adults to teach children about constructive imagination. The four books are a fun and interactive way to introduce the concept of "Thoughts Turn into Things" (so choose the ones that make you happy) to young children, ages five to nine years. Joe and his thought-zapping superpower will invite children to use their imaginations to constructively choose thoughts that promote healthy self-esteem and self-awareness. Each picture story is designed to teach a key concept. Captain Joe's Gift is the third book in the series and teaches children about the importance of being authentic and believing in themselves. Children will discover what happens when Joe uses his 'thought zapping superpower' to reveal his special gift. Readers are encouraged to recognize and embrace their own unique traits. This story will leave children feeling confident and proud to share their own special gifts and abilities with the world. It's a great way to introduce discussions with children around anti-bullying and celebrating our differences.

My Take on the Book
How is your child special? What talents or gifts does your child have already? Does your child know how special they are and that there is no one else on Earth like them? Emily Madill's story will help you and your child to answer these questions in a discussion you can initiate after reading this story.

Your child,even a young child, displays talents. Maybe they are kind and compassionate. Maybe they are funny. Maybe they can build structures with blocks. Maybe they can ride their bike well or set the table.Look for those gifts no matter how small they may seem.

Make sure your child knows he/she has special qualities that make them unique.
