God's Love for You is SO Much More than "Just" A Bible Storybook

The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing. Opinions expressed are my own and are NOT influenced by monetary compensation.
 If you are looking for a one of a kid gift, look at one of the latest books we have received :  God's Love For You.   I have to admit, I was not really sure what to expect, with it being a "Bible Storybook" with stories from around the world, but I was excited to see what was behind that brightly colored cover!

As soon as I opened the hardcover, I knew I was in for something new... 
The first two opening pages had pictures of people from around the world... 
Then, you get to the Contents section and see that it too is divided up on the Old Testament and the New Testament.    There is then a letter to Parents and then the stories start.
I absolutely LOVE that the stories are written so that kids of all ages can understand (the target age is 2-10 years old.)  Not only do you get the story - Up first? "God's Wonderful Creation Plan" based on Genesis 1...  You also get beautifully illustrated artwork to accompany the story.
As the pages turn, we have additional stories...
Part two is "God Made People to be Like Him"  but then it is followed with a personal story from Albania "God Created Me With Love" and then we have a bit of "Did You Know" with photos and tid-bits of information.
I personally thought this was awesome and took this book above the basic "Bible Storybook" that I have seen in book stores.  I am so glad that Broxton now has this to add to his library...  Not only for the stories from the Bible, but also for the stories around the world!!!!

Synopsis from their website:

    It sounds like a great way to reiterate the Bible stories kids know, and/or introduce them (and later maybe reiterate with the Bible). Great learning tool as well as fun read. I like it!

PowerMat - Review and Giveaway

Image
Please let me go ahead and just say... I think/KNOW that the PowerMat will be one of the HOTTEST items this year! Have you heard of this? I mean, seriously! This is Awesome and I am using that since I can not think of any other way to explain it... (Are there really words that would explain something this cool?!) Okay, let me just cut to the heart of it... The PowerMat is just that... A MAT full of POWER! It is a little bit longer than an average book... Thinner than a cell phone. It looks like a skateboard (in my opinion.) and it charges 3 different technological gadgets at once! Do you know what that means? You NO LONGER need 3 cords, no more messy tangles... Just one cord to plug the mat in and you are done!!!! I was sent the PowerMat for review and I am so very impressed! The PowerMat can charge 3 different items... Marc and I have blackberries... (They can now BOTH charge on here AT THE SAME TIME!) We also have several IPods ... The docking station for the IPod can charge my...

Fire Fly Toothbrushes - #giveaway

Image
Is it a hassle to get your younger kids to brush their teeth? Broxton loves it and asks throughout the day if he can go and brush his... Now that he has a new toothbrush!!! We were sent a couple toothbrushes from Fire Fly Toothbrushes and I just love the concept! With Fire Fly, they light up! You just press the button and they light up for a solid minute. What we do here is a little system. First, Broxton brushes his teeth for the first minute. (just a teeny bit of toothpaste) Then, I brush the next minute (once again, minimal toothpaste.) Finally, he gets to brush them a final minute (no toothpaste.) The system is working and his teeth are clean! During the day, when he wants to brush them.. He can, but with no toothpaste. He really just likes the way it lights up. Doesn't hurt that the toothbrush is a hot wheels car!!! He also has one to leave at my parents house.. It is a snoopy one and lights up blue! Talk about a cool item to show the grandparents!!! Not only c...

Momma Must Have - Exergen Temporal Thermometer- Review and Giveaway

Image
As we all know, it can sometimes be a bit difficult to take the temperature of a sick child. Hey, some adults are known to be big babies... The longer they have to wait, the fussier they become. Well, with the Exergen Temporal Scanner ... Wait is something that can be eliminated! Why do I say that? Just because the wait is merely 2 seconds! During that time, you will already be finished a gift giveaway blog hop, exergen temporal scanner, mom must have, R nd moving on to something else. I really like the ease of the Exergen Thermometer. It has a soft tip on it that you gently swipe across the forehead of your "patient." There are two things that make this stand out compared to others that I have used. One - If you are sweating, you can place it behind your ear to get your temperature. Two - There is a light on both sides to show you that it is on. I like that, as I sometimes worry if it is on or not... You know how I can be! First, remove the protective cap... Turn it on... ...
