New Printables – My Color Books
Just created - "My Color Books!" I got the idea of creating color books from Bubs' Kindergarten class. He enjoyed reading them so much that I decided to create my own and add them to the end of the 4 Year Curriculum. There are nine color books along with one blank book to create your own. Each book contains a title, a ...
Review: The Boy Who Changed the World
I just finished reading The Boy Who Changed the World with Bubs. Boy, did it spark some conversation! First of all, an overview: The book contains four stories that are tightly linked together.

4 Year Curriculum Adds “Book of the Week”

When you are finished with the curriculum, your child will have been introduced to 28 of the top children's books ...
Review: One Hand, Two Hands
Max Lucado is one talented guy. He can make an adult reread sentences about God's love because of their depth yet he can bring God's love down to the simplest terms for a child. One Hand, Two Hands is the third children's book by Max Lucado that I have read. Once again I was impressed. By use of rhyme and gentle ...

Her mom helps her combat these fears through gentle words, speaking on her level, and encouragement. I just finished reading this book to Bubs and Sweet Pea. Throughout the book ...
Berenstain Bear Books
There is a reason why Berenstain Bear books have latest the test of time. With their solid moral plot, I have suggested them throughout the ABCJLM curriculum. An added tip is that these books are readily available and inexpensive to purchase. But the biggest draw is that kids love to read them! I was so excited ...

Review: The Usborne Big Book of Things to Spot
The final book in my Usborne review is The Usborne Big Book of Things to Spot. This book contains over 4,000 pictures to find. Amazing! This a book that will go everywhere with you - to the doctors office, on a plane, traveling in the car, or just at home during quiet time. Beyond the "I Spy" concept, what I love ...
