I  love, love, love great educational stuff.  Whenever there is a contest, I am there to enter. Any sales, special deals going on, I want to hear about it. Something I try to make sure there is plenty available is educational books and teaching knicknacks around.   I want to motivate children to be creative and productive.

     I go for award winning books for gifts for the holiday.  Sticker Dolly Popstar would make a great Valentines' gift for a special someone. It doesn't promote cavities and it is not going to collect dust on a shelf.  It is educational.and fun. Buying Value Packs and Combined Volumes saves money.  Share them with your friends. Bible Stories Set saves you $19.90. I am creating the love of reading and a better future for them.   After a retail sale of $85, you will have some wonderful best sellers, an opportunity to build an awesome children's library, loads of ideas for learning activities and the opportunity to build a business making on average about $25 - $50 an hour with a flexible schedule. Helps to pay off holiday bills or a couple of utility bills or save for education or all of these! It is up to you to step up to the challenge and make that difference!

     So many changes happening, what to do?

So many jobs are being sent overseas and the jobs that used to be great in the U. S. are no longer the best fields to go into.  Any type of job where you have to be at the location are great jobs to go into, such as:

an electrician,

plumber,

mechanic,

garbologists,

agriculture,

construction,

building business,

nurse,

teachers,

dentists,

surgeons,

doctors,

pharmacists,..

We need more

scientists,

engineers,

chemists,

and teachers. 

Many will be retiring.  In order to have more children interested in those fields, we need to start earlier to build that interest.  To jump start that, we need to build that love of learning and reading in young children. 

Listen to some moms talking about learning here. Reading is an essential to all other learning.  The TV is no substitute for an actual book. Read the literacy facts here.

A Parent's Guide to Selecting Books for an At-Home Library

     One of the most important things you can do for your child is build a love of reading.  By surrounding your child with books, you are planting a love of reading in them and teaching them to turn to books for pleasure and knowledge.  We want our kids to grow up with the idea that books are an integral part of their lives.  With millions of books at a parent's fingertips, how's a parent to choose the right "investments" for their child's library?  Below is a list of questions and suggestions to help you choose just the right books for your child.

Choosing Books

*     Look for books based on your child's interests.   What are your child's favorite things or activities?  What does he/she talk about?

*     Choose books that relate to what's happening in your family.     Are you going to the beach this summer?   Visiting the mountains?  Visiting grandma?

*     Use books to learn about and "celebrate" special events.    Is it the first day of school?   Are you having a new baby?  Or celebrating a special holiday -  Birthday, Easter, Passover, Christmas, Hanukkah, New Year's Day, or Fourth of July?

*     Is the book appropriate to your child's physical development?   Can he/she easily handle it, touch it, and mouth it?  Are the pictures bright and attractive?  Can he/she relate the "stories" to his/her own life?

*     Look for books that initiate independent reading.    Wordless picture books, where the child can "read" the pictures and follow the story.  Also, simple stories, with engaging characters that they can memorize and then later "read" on their own.

*     If your child is reading:   Can they easily read the book by themselves?  Is the book one that a sibling can read to a younger child?    Look for series of books.  Children love to read about favorite characters in new and exciting situations.

Every child's developmental time line is unique.  As children grow, so do their attention spans and their bedtime reading ritual and reading habits need to grow with them.  While you can't push a child to learn to read, you can help your children love what comes out of books and provide lots of opportunities for them to explore them.
