Donkey X DVD review

Donkey X DVD Review 

Based on the 400 year old Spansih classic tale " Don Quijote de la Mancha," DonkeyX, releasing in July 2012, follows Rucio, the most adventurous, brave and mischievous Doneky of Castile, as he tells the true story of the legendary Don Quijote.  Rucio Jumps at the opportunity to join Don Quixote on his quest to battle The Half Moon Knight and overcome the dangerous obstacles that lurk them on the way.  

This new animation takes on Don Quixote.  If you have not seen Don Quixote then make sure you watch that first or you will be lost in this story.  Donkey X is rated G and runs about 90 minutes.  I think kids a bit older will enjoy the film more.  My 4 year still did enjoy it but I know she had no idea what was going on within the plot.  She lost interest a few times and started playing but then a few minutes later it caught her attention again.  

There is some adult humor that for the most part was clean.  It was also neat to see some Christian aspects within the movie such as praying.  :)  

There is some minor language issues and I wish the girls would cover up their chests a bit more... this is an animation so why so much cleavage.  (Sorry just had to say that)  

This DVD can be purchased at Redbox, Target, Walmart, and Amazon.com

Book Description
Discover how to lead your child to Christ.
It's the most important conversation you'll ever have with your child, but that doesn't make it easy. The gospel is simple enough for little ones, but has kept theologians debating for years. So when it comes to explaining the Good News to your son or daughter, where do you start?
In I Believe in Jesus, John MacArthur walks children though the gospel of Jesus in a way that is easy to understand, and equips parents, grandparents, teachers, and loved ones to share the familiar story of God's love.
By opening the door to conversations that lead to salvation, this picture books has the potential to change lives forever.
My Review: This was an easy book to read and it paints a very clear picture for kids and parents to easily discuss the elements on the page to make sure the child understands what decision they could be making.   That decision to follow Christ is a big one that will impact them forever so making sure you…

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly.  I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos.  Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.  
This was a super easy one for those little hands.  I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting.  The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper.  EASY, but they enjoyed it!  :) 
It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge!  :)  
I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!
