My Review:
Thank you Zondervan for sending me this book in exchange for an honest review.   All opinions are 100% mine and I was not paid for this review.   

Over the last couple years I have had the opportunity to review some great children's bibles and stories.  This one keeps standing out the most!!! As soon as I opened the book I fell in love with the artwork by Jago!  I feel like his artwork truly is hard to express in words so I included a couple of them below...pictures of the picture truly don't capture the beauty.  




I think they way the illustrator uses shadows and colors just somehow create the perfect emotions for the devotionals.  

Since I have read several Bibles to my children this devotional is taking some of those stories an helping them apply the messages in a more personal way.   The devotionals are short but can provide several minutes of discussion for a family.  

The deluxe version comes with CD's to listen to each devotional.  I personally still prefer to read them with my children but I can totally use the CD's during play time for extra listening to them.  This devotional is a great tool to pair with the Jesus Storybook Bible.  You can read my review of the Jesus Storybook Bible  HERE.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
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...

Packing for your first ski trip

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Pexels - CCO Licence So, you're gearing up for your first ski trip and the excitement is as thick as the snow you're about to conquer. But before you can show off those freshly learned pizza and French fry stops, you’ve got to pack.  Packing for a ski trip can feel like preparing for a chilly expedition to the North Pole, but fear not! With these nifty tips, you'll be ready to hit the slopes in style and comfort. 1. Layer Like a Lasagna Think of your ski outfit as a gourmet lasagna: each layer is crucial. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer (yes, that includes thermal underwear) to keep you dry and snug. Over that, layer a warm and breathable mid-layer—think fleece or a wool sweater that can handle the chill. Top it all off with a waterproof and windproof jacket and pants. Remember, it's all about layers that you can add or peel off because sweating while you ski is less fun than a snowball in the face. 2. Keep Those Fingers Cosy Cold hands can ruin a...
