By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
What does “grace” really mean? How can God’s grace impact your life? How can you experience grace every day?
This new book by New York Times bestselling author, Lee Strobel, shows how God’s love is for everyone—no matter what. Through stories of everyday people whose lives have been changed, you will discover God’s love and the power of forgiveness. You will experience God’s amazing grace and be able to share it with others.
Lee Strobel was the award-winning legal editor of The Chicago Tribune and is the best-selling author of The Case for Faith, The Case for Christ, and The Case for a Creator, all of which have been made into documentaries by Lionsgate. With a journalism degree from the University of Missouri and a Master of Studies in Law degree from Yale, Lee wrote 3 Gold Medallion winners and the 2005 Book of the Year with Gary Poole.  He and his wife live in Texas.  Visit Lee's website at:www.leestrobel.com.

My Review:
Lee Strobel has made a great adult book and transformed it for kids in an easy to understand and fun way.  The book covers many questions that an be tricky for adults to answer and they are in one book!   The book is perfect for tweens or middle school aged kids but I will admit that adults can get a lot of this book as well!   Sometimes it takes things explained different ways to fully grasp it... GRACE is such a wonderful gift but yet hard to fully understand.  
 It's in kid friendly language and if you read it together you could create some great bonding time discussing the questions and chapters.  
The book goes over GRACE and I love on the acronym used spells grace out this way:
God's
Riches
At
Christ's
Expense

I enjoy the "Face- to-face with Grace" section of questions for discussing at the end of each chapter.  The questions lead you back into the Bible for furthers searching and clarification but also makes you think more personally  on the topics discussed in the chapter.
It's a must read and affordable one too!   Pick your copy up today from Zondervan!

Thanks Zondervan for sending me a free copy of this book to conduct my review.  I was not paid for this review and all opinions are 100% mine.

Liquid Chalk spray! Chalk Idea #7

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Last week we tried out the fizzing sidewalk chalk- click here to read that review. This week it is liquid chalk spray.  They are a bit similar but yet different.  Here is how to make it: Supplies: 1 tsp. washable tempura paint 1 cup of hot water 1/2 cup of cornstarch squirt of dishwashing liquid 1 squirt bottle- I found them at the dollar store 1.  Add cornstarch to one cup of hot water whisking to mix so that there are no clumps. 2.  Add one teaspoon of washable tempura paint and a quirt of dishwashing liquid.  Mix well. 3.  Pour it into your squirt bottles and shake well. 4.  Go have fun!!!   This kept my daughters attention much longer the the fizzy chalk last week.  I also think this was easier to work with and just more fun in general.  I love seeing the chalk wet but then to see it dry.  I think it dried darker so it was fun to see the changes.  :)  Ready, Set, Go!  Have some fun! She is my little model... she kept saying "take my picture mom." She is like her

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
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!
