Don't Go To School - #RaisingaReader

 Do you remember the first day of school drop off for your little one?  I do!  With Broxton, I was so blessed to know his teacher from church, so that helped.. but man I bawled when I got in the car!  Same thing for Savannah, it isn't like it gets any easier... The book, Don't Go To School takes a new spin on things when it is the mama being upset not wanting the little one to go to school.  Cute book that Savannah and I loved. So make sure to grab it for you and your little ones to enjoy!

PRESS RELEASE: 

DON’T GO TO SCHOOL!... introduces us to Benno, an adorable little bear who is super excited about his first day of school. He’s wearing a new outfit, has eaten a hearty breakfast, and is absolutely raring to go. There’s just one problem—Benno’s mommy begs him not to go to school. She wails, sulks, acts shy, and even throws a tantrum!

Will Benno find a way to convince Mommy that everything will be okay?

DON’T GO TO SCHOOL!’s unique role-reversal plot will reassure and delight children nervous about their first day of school. Kids will love the laugh-out-loud twist on a familiar theme while parents feeling a little teary-eyed to see their babies grow up and away will empathize with Mommy.

Author Máire Zepf’s debut children’s novel, the time-travelling thriller Tubaiste Ar An Titanic (Cló Mhaigh Eo, 2012), was short-listed for Gradam Réics Carló, the Irish-language children’s book of the year award. Don’t Go to School! is her first picture book.

To kick off the release of Parental Guidance on March 26, 2013...  Here is a list of Ten Funny Extended Family Movies... Be it holidays or reunions, there is bound to be a laugh or two!!!! 10. The Great Outdoors The Craigs and the Ripleys couldn’t be more different! The Craigs’ patriarch is know-it-all investment banker Roman Craig (Dan Akyroyd) and fun-loving Chester (John Candy), better known as “Chet,” sits at the helm of the Ripley clan.  When the Ripleys decide to explore the great outdoors on vacation and are spontaneously joined by the Craigs, hilarity follows. 9. Dark Shadows Although there is no shortage of places to lay the blame for the drama within the Collins family, the most recent addition to the clan, Barnabas (Johnny Depp), is largely responsible for the family’s misfortune. He manages to bring the brood’s dysfunction to a boil in this enjoyable remake, when he rejoins the family after a 196-year absence and lengthy stay in a coffin following his torr

Just in time for Halloween!!!! Join in the fun with a double play of cute movies! If you are having a Halloween Party or just want to get into the "spirit" of it all... You will love this! We were sent the Dreamworks Party Pack for review and Broxton was so excited. Not only did we receive the movies for review, we also enjoyed the Halloween Pack that was included!!!! We enjoyed: Shrek Candy, Shrek Trick or Treat Bucket, Shrek Hands and Ears and Popcorn. See how cute the candy is? Ha ha! Look at their names! Daddy feeding Broxton the "swamp slugs" with the Shrek Hands! We (the older boys, my parents, Marc and I)love the Shrek movies, so I thought Broxton would like this Halloween take on it... Not so much. He was scared by it. The movie has Shrek and his buddies go to an old abandoned place and tell scary stories to see who is the bravest one there. I laughed, but Broxton wasn't having it... He ended up playing with his toys while I watched it, but
