Bible Review: "Kids' Devotional Bible" NIrV

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -
Complete with a year’s worth of devotions, the Kids’ Devotional Bible, NIrV will help children develop a habit they’ll want to keep. Engaging weekday devotions, fun weekend activities, interesting illustrations, and a dictionary make this a Bible they’ll want to read and apply to their lives. It includes the complete New International Reader’s Version (NIrV)—the stepping stone to the NIV—making it easier for young readers to read and understand.

Features include:
Short weekday devotions that help young readers apply Bible lessons for a full year.
52 weekend devotions that teach kids about God’s creation through fun activities like visiting the zoo and gazing at the stars.
“Got It” feature that encourages kids to find answers to Bible trivia themselves.
Book introductions that give helpful information about each book of the Bible.
A dictionary to look up words they want to know more about.
The complete NIrV text, which uses shorter sentences and easier words. Kids can read this Bible on their own!

My Review:

I get so so excited when a new Bible comes in the mail!   I love looking through it and looking at the different translations!   This particular Bible is NiRv and it is a good one for children to read with better understanding as they read.  This Bible is a hard cover bible with over 300 devotionals inside the Bible. It retails for $27.99 on Zondervan.com  The devotionals inside the Bible is what makes me super excited to promote it.   I truly believe that as a parent I have to model and teach my children who to dig into their Bible and let God show them something new each time.  It takes practice and it takes some patience for many.   The devotionals inside this Bible are simple.  They have a scripture reading and a couple paragraphs to help you relate to the text an then a question to get your brain thinking.   The devotional has a box to check in if you read it and it tells you what page to find the next devotional so you can easily find it. 

I have the privilege of receiving this book for free but then I get stoked to pass it along to someone else to read.   One of the ways I pass on and share the blessing of these books from Zondervan is giving them away as prizes at our monthly outreach night during our Interactive movie nights at my church.   I can't wait to see who wins this great Bible.  

Pray with me that the winner will be able to hear clearly from God and grow deeper and deeper in love with him!   AMEN!  

Thank you Zondervan for sending me a free book in exchange for an honest review.  As part of the Z Blog Squad team I enjoy the benefits of free books but I promise to always write my personal opinions as I am not getting paid!

Orbeez beads and glow sticks= SENSORY FUN!

My daughter got one of those Orbeez bead sets for Christmas.  I was so amazed at how those beads grew in the water.  It was so much fun!  :)  My daughter made her necklaces with the beads but we had a lot more m beads so we have been using them for some fun sensory play.   We put the beads in a dish and we got some glow sticks and put them in the container with the beads.  The beads looked really awesome.  :) My daughter loved it.  She played in the dark with the beads and glow sticks for a long time.  :)

Beating the Heat with Ice Cube Painting

I LOVE LOVE LOVE being a mom!  I love that my daughter is at a age where she wants to do arts n crafts and is a little sponge learning and trying new things.  
With the heat of the week I wanted another activity that would help keep us cool.  Ice cube painting was a great idea for 90 degree days with lots of humidity.   
Not only was this fun but very easy to make.  All I did was put water in my ice cube tray and then added food coloring and then put in the freezer.  SUPER FUN AND EXTREMELY EASY!  
Selah's face she makes when she is concentrating.  
Her first drawing on paper.   
This is an old dish towel that I did not use anymore.  
You could set the ice cube in one spot and let it melt for a little bit and then move it.  It created a very neat tye-dye look.  :)  I LOVED IT!  Selah had so much fun moving the ice cubes around.  :) 
Her name kinda disappeared but this looks so cool!  I love love love it!  :) 
We want to do this again!  :)

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 paint1 cup of hot water1/2 cup of cornstarchsquirt of dishwashing liquid1 squirt bottle- I found them at the dollar store1.  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 daddy, when he is work…
