Read and Share Toddler Bible

The Wee Wonder and I have been enjoying the Read and Share Toddler Bible we received from Thomas Nelson publishers. She really likes the fun pictures and simple stories, and I like how short the stories are - no losing her attention while telling the story of Moses, or Noah, or... you get my drift! Plus, whenever a story is shorter than her interest, she instructs me to read the next one. She uses the pictures to take us to her favorite stories when she wants to hear a particular story again (they usually involve babies, typical little girl that she is!). She is proud to have her very own Bible, since everyone else in the house has their own, and she calls me to read it to her often.

The Read and Share Toddler Bible also comes with a DVD of an hour of short bible story videos. All of my children enjoy watching those. The older children know a bunch of the stories, and the video is a great way to "tie it all together" - which children really love to do!

The only downside to this Bible for us is it's size - it isn't large, it is just larger than some children's Bibles - and really, a good Bible is generally over-sized, so we are a bit used to that! The Wee Wonder just likes to take her own Bible to church with her like everyone else does, and it is a bit heavy for her to handle for very long. Overall, this is a great addition to the many "stages" of Bibles we have around here, and I am blessed to have been able to share it with my children. I recommend this Bible to anyone looking for a children's Bible that will be appropriate and interesting to children between the ages of 2 and 6 (because new readers also like simple, short stories, I think this Bible would still be of interest after the toddler years).

Health Care in the USA

Well, it is time for another political rant, so depending on your standing, you may want to mosey along.... Health care in the United States is apparently in need of an overhaul. There are few who disagree. However, the method of that overhaul is in question. Many would like to use their power in government to take over health care. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they are calling it a reform , but it is really just a takeover . So, okay, let's evaluate. Your company, which you have worked for your entire life, is losing money. It is still afloat, but it isn't doing as well as it could. You have a couple of choices as a member of the voting board of directors : you could vote in favor of a reevaluation of what is working and what isn't, what rules are already in place that aren't being followed that would benefit your bottom line, and what people in your company are beneficial and what people are detrimental, then you could weed out things and people who aren't a good

Math Mammoth (TOS Crew Review)

When I discovered we had another math program on the way for review purposes, I winced. Really? I could really use some science, art, or history in our homeschool, sure, but math? Um, no. No, thank you . Well, the vendor for Math Mammoth contacted me and asked for specific information about my children (ages, math levels, problem areas). [+ 1] We decided (yes, together , we decided! [+1] ) on Subtraction 1 for The Smallish Man-Child and Multiplication 1 for The Drama Princess . First, let me tell you what I saw when I printed Subtraction 1 for our first use: GAMES - ideas for games, suggestions, ways, materials to use (rocks, blocks, etc)... seriously, play games to teach subtraction . Okay, now that I have been there, sure, it makes sense, but Kudos! to a maker of math curricula for directing teachers to teach subtraction by using games . So, since my son was a pill when I had tried to teach him subtraction the one time I had attempted it, and since the purpose of

How Has Homeschooling Affected My Life?

Well, homeschooling IS my life, so suffice it to say, there's no stone unturned! Massive takeover, at times, a bit hostile!! For example, my second child was getting ready to embark on Mother's Day Out and my first child was conveniently ensconced in a Government-run "educational" facility, and I had a glimmer of real freedom... for about a day. Then I found out I was preggo with Baby #3. Commence Meltdown. I have since gotten over that traumatic , er, beautiful time, and we have embraced homeschooling. The freedom never came, the oldest got pulled from Uncle Sam's Brainwashing Academy, and the second offspring never entered a public school. The third will not go away to preschool. They go with me to the doctor. This, they do not love. Neither do I. ( Mommy, why is she putting that there?? ) Alas, it is our lot in life... at least until the eldest is of babysitting age. They go with me to the grocery store. This, they love occasionally, but it usua
