The Wild Brothers: Welcome to Our World - DVD Review

Do your children like adventure? Do you like learning about other cultures? Do you like learning about different habitats in the world? Let me introduce you and your family to The Wild Brothers .  The Wild Brothers: Welcome to Our World is the first DVD in the series. In this video we are introduced to the Wild Brothers; Morgan, Hudson, Kian and Asher, as well as their parents, Mike and Libby, who are missionaries in a remote jungle. The Wild Brothers take us on their adventures throughout the jungle. They share about the people, the culture, homeschooling and so much more. Most importantly, they share about bringing the Gospel to the people of that remote jungle. My favorite part was watching where Mike and Libby (the parents) get to spend time together each morning while drinking a cup of coffee. How marvelous it must be to sit in the stillness while enjoying God's beautiful creation and the company of your spouse. My children really enjoyed watching the Wild Brother

Wholesome chapter books and lapbooks for girls.

When my girls started to really enjoy reading, I wanted to make sure they were reading quality books that were wholesome. I don't want them learning things before they are ready. I want them to enjoy their innocents as long as they can. When I started my search for wholesome books, I was so thankful I found Circle C Beginnings and Circle C Adventures , by Susan K. Marlow,  for my girls. The first set, Circle C Beginnings Series , starts with an introduction of Andi. Andi is a sweet little 6 year old girl who lives on Circle C Ranch. She loves horses and adventures. "In the Circle C Beginnings, readers ages six to nine will meet spunky, six-year-old Andi Carter, who is eager to grow up and experience the Wild West on the Circle C ranch in 1874. Life is always exciting for Andi, the youngest child in a busy ranching family. Exploring the ranch on her pony, Coco, meeting Indians, and a trip to the state fair are only a few of the adventures she and her friend, Riley,
