Book Review - Dear Family

About the Book
This uplifting collection of Zig Ziglar's personal letters paints a vivid portrait of a family in which love abounds-and serves as the foundation of every relationship. These letters reflect the innermost thoughts and feelings of a loving husband and devoted father who is totally committed to the physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being of his family.

In Dear Family, Ziglar addresses the issues that confront him, along with countless others, as a father and husband:

• The cultivation of personal qualities that will sustain each member of the family throughout a lifetime
• The need to establish, early in life, the values that anchor any successful, happy life
• "Quality time" versus "quantity time"
• A parent's obligation to lead his children through the maze of sibling conflicts and relationships with members of the opposite sex, and the myriad fears and uncertainties of every youngster en route to adulthood

These letters reflect the innermost thoughts and feelings of a loving husband and devoted father who is totally committed to the physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being of his family. For readers everywhere, these intimate communications about life and love and family can provide a practical guide for building and strengthening their own family relationships.



My Take on the Book
I have always been impressed with what Zig Ziglar had to say and how he shared it too. Not only through his books and public speaking, but in how he lived his life and how he loved his family. This book gives you an inside look into Zig Ziglar's heart and in how what we saw in his external life also continued in his writings to his own family too. This book allows you to see Zig Ziglar as a human and you leave with valuable insights into how each of us should aspire to live our own lives too.

K'Nex New Building Sets Provide Fun For The Whole Family

All opinions expressed in this review are my own and not influenced in any way by the company.  Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer or provider. Please refer to this site's Disclaimer  for more information. I have been compensated or given a product free of charge, but that does not impact my views or opinions.

K’NEX Angry Birds Red Planet Building Set: HOGS ON MARS

Now you can build and play in the world of Angry Birds Space! With the Hogs On Mars building set, you can actually build and destroy a level from the Angry Birds Space game! Launch Incredible Terence and Lightning Bird to defeat the evil Space pigs and destroy the Mars Rover. Includes a working launcher just like the game, enough parts to build and knock down, plus a bonus Space Egg. Everything included works with other K'NEX Angry Birds sets. You can even download instructions for an additional building idea. Perfect for builders ages 7+.

K’NEX Building Sets: Extreme Sports
Cool extreme sports builds will capture young builders’ imaginations! The Extreme Sports building set features 10 building ideas including a hang glider, jet skier, sky diver, sport bike rider and more. Build your own daring stunt man complete with the included helmet-head and then create an action-packed stunt of your own imagination for him to complete. Set also features full-color instructions and 250+ Classic K’NEX pieces including made in the USA rods & connectors. Suggested retail price is $17.99. Ages 7+. Available Fall 2013.

My Take on the Sets

Both of these sets were a ton of fun and whether you are a K'Nex fan or not these sets will make you a fan in no time. Both of these sets were completely different and engage you in different ways, but for me that was half the fun. My youngest daughter loves Angry Birds so she was excited about the first set. She loved the idea of being able to build something to then be able to knock it and the pigs down. The set was easy enough to build and break down and she and I had a blast playing with it, breaking it down, rebuilding it, etc.

My eldest daughter was more into the extreme sports. Now we did follow the instructions and made quite a few of the pieces that were shared, but we also made some of our own creations too. My camera was on the frits when we were doing this so I do not have images of those but will have to make some more in the future as we continue to try our hand at making extreme sports come to life.

All-in-all both of these were a ton of fun and engage different children in different ways which is great in my book. I for one hope to see even more variety coming out from K'Nex in the near future!

Book Review - How's Your Family Really Doing? 10 Keys to a Happy Loving Family

All opinions expressed in this review are my own and not influenced in any way by the company.  Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer or provider. Please refer to this site's Disclaimer  for more information. I have been compensated or given a product free of charge, but that does not impact my views or opinions.

About the Book
Research has demonstrated that successful families can achieve the task of raising children who live independently and establish stable and harmonious relationships. They can create a sense of closeness, a positive sense of family identity, provide support and encouragement through times of stress, and allow for the uniqueness of their members. Buried in piles of professional literature, Dr. Don MacMannis (Dr. “Mac”) along with his wife, Debra MacMannis, M.S.W., have uncovered the 10 Keys—the common factors or essential threads that are needed to build successful and lasting relationships.

Dr. Mac and Debra are the authors of How's Your Family Really Doing? 10 Keys to a Happy Loving Family, a guidebook that helps readers build strong, loving, and happy families for the new millennium. Weaving together contributions from psychology, neurobiology, family studies and spirituality, it also draws from extensive new brain research to highlight 10 essential keys that define successful families.

How’s Your Family Really Doing? can help you to:

• Learn about healthy families and ways to bring out the best in one another.
• Identify family strengths and areas needing improvement.
• Find specific ways to strengthen skills for each of the 10 Keys
• Examine the similarities and differences between your family of origin and current family.

The book was conceptualized and written to be more than just a parenting book. It can be used as a reference—like an encyclopedia of family relationships that can be turned to at pivotal moments in the family life cycle. The tips and tools can help family members regardless of whether the kids are still growing up or have left the nest. Equally appropriate for families with toddlers, teens or grandparents, it can be used as a pre-marital tool, as preparation for the birth of a child, at a time when a child is symptomatic and the family wants to know why, at the blending of two new families, or at a break-up or a geographical move.

“The inspiration for How’s Your Family Really Doing? came from the thousands of families that reached out to us for help over the last 35 years,” explains Dr. MacMannis. “We were asked the same question over and over: ‘Why didn’t we learn this information in school?’ How’s Your Family Really Doing? uncovers and synthesizes the essential characteristics of healthy families as they emerged from our therapy practice, teaching, training of therapists, and in our own family. This is the course that we all wish had been offered in high school or college. Imagine the mistakes that could have been avoided had anyone taught us the essentials of healthy relating.”

My Take on the Book
This is a book that is a great resource for any family. It puts a ton of information into one location and shares practical tips on what you can do to help you become a better parent and a more connected family. I particularly liked the assessment tool that was included which gives you a baseline of where to start and gives you ideas on what areas you may need to work on and then they provide you with the tools to do just that. The book allows people to know that all families can become stronger and does not point fingers or place blame is there are parts of the family dynamic which are dysfunctional...instead just the opposite, if builds up the reader and supports them to become better and stronger. This was a great book that I would highly recommend to all families!

DVD Review - You’ve Got a Friend

About the Movie 
Starring John Schneider (“Smallville,” “Hot in Cleveland”), Dylan McLaughlin (“iCarly,” Kicking and Screaming), Chase Ellison (Tooth Fairy, Unstoppable) and Bitty Schram (“Monk,” A League of Their Own) - this story is the true meaning of family and friendship, and shows that you should never close the door on your dreams.

A little more about the film - Set in 1976, San Diego native Bobby Graham (McLaughlin) loses his parents to a car accident and is sent to live with his aunt and uncle in Eagle Rock. Determined to follow in his late father’s footsteps he sets out to accomplish his dream of winning the American Soapbox Derby with the help of an unlikely friend, war veteran and town recluse, Jim Klecan (Schneider). Bobby may think that Jim is helping him to win the race, but it is really Jim who needed the help from a friend to bring him back to life.

My Take on the DVD
If you have ever had a dream that was realized or unrealized, this movie will mean something to you. You have the opportunity within this movie to be inspired and motivated, as well as be drawn into a movie with strong undertones and messages and friendship that you will want to share with your whole family. On top of this I loved the relationship that you see that develops between Bobby and Jim and you come to find that even though at first you think it is Bobby that needs Jim, that instead it really is the other way around. As the movie continues, you see the relationship between the two of them and the other characters flourish and develop into something special. Hallmark has done another great job at making a family friendly film for the whole family!

Game Review - Spot It Jr.! Animals

About the Game 
Just like the original and popular Spot it!, but simplified for younger children, Spot it! Jr. Animals is a wonderful new addition to every family’s game closet. This captivating card game is an ideal break from video games and toys that rely on batteries to keep them running. With over 200 five-star reviews and ranked as the top selling card game for a year on Amazon, Spot it! has proved to be a best seller. After 12 years in the game business, Blue Orange has done it again by creating a version of its popular Spot it! game just for the little ones. Let the animal safari begin!

Spot it! Jr. Animals features 31 brightly colored cards with six different animal images on each card. With only one matching animal between any two cards, this delightful visual perception game is really fun for all kinds of kids, even with various ability levels. Included are 5 different party games to keep everyone entertained.

Spot it! Jr. Animal’s laminated, durable and eco-friendly cards are packaged in a sturdy tin canister, the perfect size for playing at home, stuffing into a backpack, and ideal for the family on the go. We know that video games, laser guns, remote-controlled cars and plastic ponies are also in the mix, but the more time away from these, the better!

“We love making back-to-basic games,” says Julian Mayot, co-founder and CEO of Blue Orange Games. “I think everyone finds that summer is the perfect time to simplify life— and because our games can be played almost anywhere, Spot it! Jr. Animals is a terrific and welcome escape from electronic games and gadgets.”

Children are natural learners and will love spotting the animals and matching them in this fast-paced game. Designed for children 4 and up, and for 2 to 6 players. Spot it! Jr. Animals can be bought online for $9.99 through Amazon.com, www.games.blueorangegames.com, or in stores across the country that carry Blue Orange products.

Spot it! Jr. Animals, a new edition “collectible” game is part of the Blue Orange Games Pocket Collection that will keep parents and their “wild things” discovering their inner animal for years to come—no binoculars required!

My Take on the Game
My kids love the original Spot It Game, so they were excited when they heard of a few new Spot It Games that were now on the market. This Spot it, is made specifically for younger players and their families. I appreciated this because my youngest has had to work harder to keep up when it comes to the original and travel Spot It! games that we have had in the past. The game is easy enough and encourages all to stay alert and encourages quick thinking. I love this game as a father because the game itself is interactive and engaging. I also love how easy this game is to transport, so no matter where you are going, this game simply slips into your bag for easy transport! The pictures on the cards are so colorful and vivid I could tell at once that my youngest was drawn to them and she truly enjoyed playing this game with me. Overall this is a great addition to the Spot It! line of games and as a dad I have to saw thank you for making a version of the game for younger audiences, my daughter and I completely appreciate it!

Game Review - Spot it! On the Road Travel Game

About the Game
Remember how fun it was to play games on those long summer car trips? Chances are you broke up the monotony by checking out how many different states you could identify on license plates, and played “I Spy” or “Car Bingo.” Now kids have an awesome riff on these wonderful classics with Spot it! On the Road, a hot new card game from Blue Orange Games that’s sure to keep everyone entertained this summer.

Whether it’s a drive across town or a long trip to the cabin, Spot it! On the Road is a great alternative to video games and other gadgets, offering an easy and super-fun solution to backseat boredom.

Spot it! On the Road comes in a compact, travel-size tin consisting of 55 circular cards, each designed with eight different, but common “road” symbols— such as an airplane, mailbox, billboard, bridge, or fire hydrant. The rules are simple: place all the cards facedown in a pile. One card is turned over and all the players move quickly to find the roadside match. The first to spot the match wins the card, and when the cards run out, whoever has the most cards wins! Included are 5 different party games to keep everyone entertained.

“While there have always been car games, Spot it! On the Road is a fantastic take on the best of them all -- an instant classic.” says Julian Mayot, cofounder and CEO of Blue Orange Games, “Having a game the whole family can play together is a lot more fun than playing a video game by yourself”.

With a number of ways to play the game—all rooted in the same basic strategy, Spot it! On the road is fun for the entire family, a must have for everyone’s game closet. Spot it! develops visual recognition and matching skills, as well as requiring quick mental processing.

Spot it! On the Road can be played by 2 to 8 players, and though it’s designed for ages 7 and up, there is no reading involved. Priced at $12.99, Spot it! On the Road is part of the Blue Orange pocket collection and can be purchased online through Amazon, www.games.blueorangegames.com or in stores across the country that carry Blue Orange products.

My Take on the Game
My kids love the original Spot It Game, so they were excited when they heard of a few new Spot It Games that were now on the market. This Spot it, allows you to have a blast in the car with symbols that you may see along the way from destination to destination. The game is easy enough and encourages all to stay alert and encourages quick thinking. I love this game as a father because the game itself is interactive and engaging. I also love how easy this game is to transport, so no matter where you are going, this game simply slips into your bag for easy transport! My kids love it because they like to see if they are faster than their dad (sometimes they are). All-in-all this is a great addition to the Spot It! line of games!

• 1 Ferry Tile 
• 10 Magnifying Glass Tokens

• 1 Game Rules Manual 

My Take on the Game
This Busytown Eye Found It Game was amazing! It has been a long time since I found a game that was so much fun for the whole family and encouraged total teamwork instead of competition between players. On top of this, I also loved the fact that it encouraged you to really search for items, and each time you played the game you tend to find more and more of the items because you become more familiar with the game board itself. We have played this game now many times and it never gets old. If you have a busytown fan in your family have not picked up this game yet, you need to go out and pick it up today. This is definitely the type of game that you want your kids to play! I highly encourage the scheme to any family that I know my family is now hooked and we are huge fans!
