When the opportunity to try Guillow’s foam gliders, motorplanes, and balsa wood gliders came my way I jumped at the chance! I knew that these would be a great way to give my girls something to chase outdoors (read ‘run off energy’) and boy was I right! The first sunny and not too windy day…

my name is paul :: review + giveaway
I was not sure what to expect when I popped My Name is Paul into the DVD player. More times than not, when producers try to take a “spin” on Biblical characters, I am usually left a little disappointed. This was not the case with this movie! I was very pleased with this futuristic analogy…

milksplash :: get kids to drink milk :: iced mocha recipe :: review + giveaway
We have never had a problem with our kids liking milk, but I know it’s a very real struggle parents face if their kids don’t care for it. MilkSplash might be the flavoring they need to enjoy a tall glass of milk. We were able to try the strawberry and chocolate flavoring. One squirt is…

stories of animals and friendship from sleeping bear press :: review
I just love sharing Sleeping Bear Press books with our readers and was excited when I noticed that three of the books I have on hand to share had a couple themes to them. It wasn’t very hard to figure out that all three books were about animals. Honestly, all we had to do was…
