Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Deuteronomy 6:7

Game: Match and Move Memory Game

02/04/2010 by Heidi

Match and Move Memory Game is one of those games that should still be sold.  This was my sister's game and she was good at it.  She played so much that she had memorized what color of square went with what picture. The box claims this game to be an "Advanced Memory Game".  Rightly so as this game is definitely more difficult ...

Drawings

02/03/2010 by Heidi

Bubs has never liked to draw.  Up until a couple of days ago, if you asked him to draw something, he scribbled.  I looked in the magazines that we receive and saw these great pictures that kids Bubs' age drew.  I knew that the problem stemmed back to his fine motor skills but we had to turn the tide. Along with the Visual Perception Activities ...

Now That’s Thinking…

01/28/2010 by Heidi

At dinner time a few days ago Bubs told us his master plan of how he was going to purchase a new Wii game.  He had played the new Mario Brothers game with his Uncle and Aunt and really liked it.  (Actually Mommy and Daddy had fun too!)  In detail, he explained how he was going to have all of these games laid out (kind of the carnival concept).  He ...

A Must Have for Lunches

01/24/2010 by Heidi

Our kiddos attend a Mother's Day Out program at our church once a week for 5 hours.  This is the time that I plan my doctor appts, dentist, meetings, etc.  It is a lifesaver for me plus I feel it is important for my kids to have a break from me.  They are loved on by others while hearing the same love of Jesus we talk about at home.  We are a part ...

Review: God, I Need To Talk to You

01/22/2010 by Heidi

Click to read an update on the God, I Need to Talk to You About... series.

Handheld Shower

01/20/2010 by Heidi

Ya know...it is the little things in life.  For me it is a hand shower.  I asked my husband why we didn't get this thing 5 years ago when Bubs was born!  Seriously!!  I LOVE to give the kids a shower.  No more bending over! I know.  Pretty sad. A few years ago while visiting our neighbors, Sweet Pea had one of "those" diapers.  I came in and ...

Review: God’s Little Princess Devotional Bible

Child reading the Bible with her parents.

I had the privilege of reviewing God's Little Princess Devotional Bible: Bible Storybook by Sheila Walsh.  From the moment that I requested this book, I excitedly watched the mail for it to arrive.  The book has a beautiful "princess" cover with crown and jewels.  Our daughter fell in love immediately and wanted to show ...
