Great Gift Ideas (and Reviews) #3
Here are reviews of 3 great games for children gift ideas! All of these are small and transported pretty easily. Games for Children#1: Uno to Go This is a brilliantly designed set of Uno cards! This is exactly the same as your standard Uno game, except that the cards are laminated. The lamination is such that the cards hold up EXTREMELY well under a LOT of circumstances: Playing beside the pool, at the beach, or on a boat. Playing with a child who tends to bend cards (these cards are NOT easily bent!) Playing and eating, especially with children. These cards wipe clean in a flash! Playing anywhere on the…

Great Gift Ideas (and Reviews) #2
For this gift ideas and review post, I thought I’d give you a little feed back on a type of toy we’ve had at least three different versions of around our house over the past few years: Marble Runs. A Good Gift Idea We began our experience with marble ones with one like this one (although it was NOT this brand). My son really enjoyed it, and I think it’s actually still here at the house somewhere. The problem with this particular set was that it was too complicated and wobbly for a child under 5 to put together on his own. The age recommendations on these are usually 3…

Crazy Kids Bible Devotional: Jesse Tree Day 5
Yay! We’ve made to Day 5 of our Kids Bible Devotional Jesse Tree series! If you (or you and your kids) are following along with us, we hope you’re enjoying it as much as we are. I really feel like the chance to hit the highlights of God’s story over this period of advent really helps cement into my children’s hearts and minds the idea that God always, always, always wants us to be with Him; to be a part of His story. I don’t understand why God made human beings in the first place (it’s the number one question on my list!), but I believe wholeheartedly that He did…

Crazy Kids Bible Devotional: Jesse Tree Day 1
Our family was so blessed a few years ago to discover the idea of the Jesse Tree Devotional as a way to spend the season of Advent. While our family wants to focus on Jesus every day of the year, we have really come to appreciate being able to spend the month of December walking through selected passages from the Old and New Testaments in the days that lead up to Christmas. In the middle of an incredibly busy season of life, having this time each day has really helped all four of us to better appreciate God’s plan for us, and how that plan has been in place from…
