Ah Summer, it's almost over and the kids are bumping against the walls.
Well they are at my house! With this severe heat, there isn't much outside time without dehydration!
So books and crafting has been a great inside solution this Summer.
Her's 2 of our new favorites, that are also perfect for Back to School reading!
Beginning with “Bedtime Peace” and ending with “Wonderful Me!” this collection of fifteen bedtime poems enables young children to discover the One who holds them in his arms, leads them like a shepherd, created them just as they are, and cherishes them with a love that never ends ... snuggle and see!
The book is perfect for kids under the age of 5 to have parents read to them, and then for the 4-6 age group to use as an early reader. The illustrations are SO charming, and the book is perfect for small hands to hold, that it will be be an immediate hit with your little ones. And there is the added bonus of introducing them to bible verses! It would also make a lovely gift too, with a stuffed animal or two from the illustrations!
Earlier this year I shared with you the great new Christian book series for kids, written by country singer Natalie Grant, the Glimmer Girls, and today I have the newest installment for you, that also comes out early next month!
Miracle in Music City:
In this third title in the Faithgirlz Glimmer Girls, the Glimmer Girls are at it again—looking for a mystery to solve. Gloria wants her daughters to learn they aren’t too young to make a difference, so she gets them involved in her annual benefit and auction. But as things often do with the trio of smart and sassy sisters, twins Mia and Maddie and their sidekick little sister, LuLu, get themselves and their nanny Miss Julia, involved in a lot more than just helping mom raise money for a worthy and wonderful cause, in their hometown of Nashville, Tennessee! in their hometown of Nashville, Tennessee!
Miss Grace raced thru this latest installment, calling it her favorite one of the series, The mystery was good, the siblings worked together and they learned a few lessons along the way, like how great is is to serve others, and fulfill God' wish for us! It's the perfect size book for age group, ages 9-12, though I think grades 4-4 will probably enjoy it the most. She can't wait for book 4, and any series that keeps my child reading is a winner with me!
If you pre-order the book, before August 1st, you can get a FREE star necklace from Natalie too!
