Day 30: Hands on Play-Keep on playin


DAY 30 CHALLENGE:

KEEP ON PLAYING!
Today is the final day of the 30 Days to Hands on Play Challenge.

What have you learned from this hands on play challenge?
I have learned that no matter how busy my day can get I can always make time for 15 minutes of uninterrupted play with my 2 awesome children!  It was very hard at times for me to focus on playing when I knew I should clean this, or cook this, or try to hop on my computer for some me time, or what ever other distraction I have.  No matter what the house will always need cleaning and my children just keep growing too quickly so I was taught to SLOW down and enjoy each moment with them.  

I have to admit that during this month I took 559 pictures and most of those are from play challenges!  :)  That was the only technology around that I allowed myself to have during the play challenge.  :)  What can I say... I heart pictures and memories.  

I have also learned that no matter what I am doing with my older daughter I can somehow still get my youngest involved with us even if he is an observer.  


DAY 30 CHALLENGE:
Keep challenging yourself to do what we've been doing every day. Spend at least 15 minutes with your child playing! You've got the ideas now from the past 30 days, now expand upon those and keep the play going in your house!

I will continue to have our 15 minutes per day.  I have a few ideas for play in my head that I am looking forward to doing and sharing with you all in the future.  :)  This next month we will be keeping a Christmas theme and am very excited to get started.  :)  We are also going to be doing the 24 days of Counting down to Christmas. :) Hope you can join in that fun too as 24 bloggers will be sharing a new idea each day.  :)  I have also been doing an Advent activity each day since Sunday which will be each day until Christmas.  :) I hope to have a few crafts to go along with the bible lesson so keep your eyes peeled.  :)

Hope you enjoyed reading and seeing our pictures on our 30 days of hands on play challenge!  :)

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

  Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...
