HOO are you?

NightOwlCrafting

1. How did you spend the 4th of July?
On Sunday we went to the carnival, then out to eat with friends we have not seen in 2 years.  Following that we had a BBQ at a friends house for dinner, and then met at another friends for Fireworks that evening.  On Monday we went to a parade that never actually took place but ended up letting our daughter play with her friend in the big water fountains.  :) Then we relaxed and played at home.  Hubby and I enjoyed a movie in the evening. 

2. What was a couple of your favorite things you ate for the 4th of July?
hmmm... I had typical BBQ food!

3. Did you watch fireworks?
Yes, we watched on Sunday evening.

4. What is your favorite firework?
The ones you watch for free!  :) 

5. How hot was it where you were for the 4th?
We were in the 80's!  Perfect weather!

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way. Scared is a feeling that can be hard to face, but if we listen to it, we can learn things about ourselves. In  God, I Feel Scared , children will discover that it’s okay to be scared and that God is with us in all things, including fear.

The bright, emotive art by Nomar Perez will draw kids in, and a note in the back provides tips and techniques parents and caregivers can use to help young children process their feelings in a beneficial way. God, I Feel Scared  teaches kids ages 4 to 8 how to: Identify the feeling of fear and recognize thin...
