S is for Selah, and salt!

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
I took some food dye and mixed it with salt so we would have a little color fun when I had my daughter glue on the salt for her "S" and her name, "Selah." 

I was very proud of her as she was having such a good time point out all the S's she has seen this week, and how well she has written and practiced her "S" letters.  :)  She is so excited to learn to write her name.  :) 

All week I got to hear "S is for me cause my name is S-s-s-s SELAH."  

S is for Selah but it is also for Salt, sugar, skunk, squirrel, and so much more. 


Caught with her tongue out again!  :)

so cute! Did you have trouble dying the salt? I've never tried worrying it would get too sticky.

I love that pic with her tongue out - my oldest does that in concentration mode. It's so funny.

Thanks for linking to the Sunday Showcase & hope to see you again this week!

Nope the salt did not get sticky! The food dye I have is a gel not a liquid so that might have helped? I had to stir it all in really well but it worked great as I too was wondering what would happen. :)

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way. Scared is a feeling that can be hard to face, but if we listen to it, we can learn things about ourselves. In  God, I Feel Scared , children will discover that it’s okay to be scared and that God is with us in all things, including fear. With simple, accessible text, scared becomes an emotion that kids don’t need to avoid and instead something they can use to better understand themselves and grow closer to God. The bright, emotive art by Nomar Perez will draw kids in, and a note in the back provides tips and techniques parents and caregivers can use to help young children process their feelings in a beneficial way. God, I Feel Scared  teaches kids ages 4 to 8 how to: Identify the feeling of fear and recognize thin...
