Magnetic Set from Betty Lukens Review and Giveaway

Thank-you BettyLukens for sending us the "Colors and Counting Magnetic Set," "Birthday Party Magnetic Set," and the "Fun on the Farm Magnetic Set. I was not paid for this review and all opinions are 100% mine.

As my four year old gets ready to head to preschool these sets have come in handy to review many skills such as colors, numbers, following directions, and imagination fun.

My son seemed to enjoy mixing the colored animals to be a part of the farm scene. I always like to encourage my kids to play with their toys they way they want to rather then be overbearing and only let them play with one set at a time... yes it does require more clean up but it helps them learn organization when they help with that clean up.

I also found that using folders to hold all sets works great. The pieces all fit on the scenery sheet so once that is folded and in a folder it is easy to transport and not lose pieces.

These magnetic sets are aged 3+ and retails for $7.47! A great price for a quality product! I highly enjoyed the magnets compared with the felt products that Betty Luken's sells. Magnets don't get bent and creased like the felt products. I recommend getting more then one set to mix and match and watch your children's imagination run wild with this fun.

Another great place to play with these sets is right on the fridge. It is always fun to see kids playing near you when you are busy cooking, cleaning but please be careful if they are in their playing. :)

This activity can be one that is brought along when you know your child will be waiting for a long time. It is not a noise maker toy so as long as your child keeps their volume level down this toy can go where ever you need it to go to help keep your child busy... doctor's office, long car rides, appointments, church, etc etc. Be sure to check out all the Betty Lukens magnetic sets.

"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...

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...
