Looking for Poems for kids?  Look into the book, A Bee Named Bea and Other Poems.  
This is a super cute book and the poems are sure to make the little ones smile!  
At first, I was not so sure about this book--- since I am not a really HUGE Poem person- I used to be, but not really sure what happened.  
So, when this book arrived, I started off with a negative attitude.  
Then, I kept turning the pages... 

A Bee Named Bea and Other Poems is just too cute.
The first poem we start with is An Alligator named Augie.  This is about an alligator that becomes friends with a frog named Froggy.  
The next is A Bee named Bea.  At this point, I was wondering if we would have a A Chick named Chickie, but they threw me in for a loop!  It was a bird named Dickie!  
Each poem gives us a cute new name  ...  " A (something) named (something.)"
But it is so much more than that... The actual story line of the poem is what is most important- in A Canary Named Larry, we get to meet Larry the canary that can not sing...   His friends can not stand to hear him sing, but instead of having a pity party... Larry learns that he is really good at bell ringing!  Now, his friends sing and he rings the bell and everyone is happy!   
I love the problem solving in the poem and each one has a great message.  
In A Chicken Named Charlie - we meet Charlie that rides a Harley... 
Except he doesn't follow the rules and never seems to leave both wings on the handlebars!  
His best friend keeps warning him...  but he never listens... Until it is too late -

As I said, I love the messages in each of the poems.  
I think this would make a great gift for any preschool teacher!!!

    This would be fun to give my son's teacher for the classroom. She's got a major bee theme going on. :)

    Hi Noelle, I am the author. I just wanted to let you know that I have been reading the book to Kindergarten, First Grade, and Second Grade. They are very responsive and I have them participate in the stories. Super Fun!

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... ...
