About Me

My photo
Mysteries, polka dots, California Rolls, TJ Maxx, cozy blankets, rainy days and getting the first spoonful of peanut butter out of the jar make me smile. Spiders, rude people, cold fingers and toes, baby leashes, people that don't wrap their packages before going to the Post Office, poison ivy and Math (pretty much all of it) make me want to scream. My perfect day would be spent with my wonderful husband and sweet girls- watching movies in our jammies! Of course, having the movie theater to ourselves would be great, too. Please pass the popcorn and M&M's.:) I am saved by the grace of God. He is my constant companion and hears my every prayer. What a blessing! I'd love to hear from you!

We Choose Virtues- TOS review




   Simple, colorful, kid-friendly.  We Choose Virtues.  I was given the opportunity to review this wonderful product.  I had no idea that such a curriculum even existed!  Heather McMillan created We Choose Virtues because as a preschool teacher and children's pastor "it concerned her how often she came across children whose lack of self control, honesty and perseverance was almost debilitating.  How could they succeed in life without the skills that come from good character?"  So true!  Heather designed brightly colored and fun characters with a corresponding virtue and a catch phrase.  Simple and fun- 2 of my favorite words.:)  Here are the virtues that are covered:  

-Attentive  
-Content
-Diligent
-Forgiving
-Gentle
-Helpful
-Honest
-Kind
-Obedient
-Patient
-Perseverant
-Self-Controlled

  Take a peek below and you will see what I am talking about...


The virtue clues are darling!  They sell for $5.99 and really make you smile.:)
We were also sent a download of the Teacher's Handbook (retails for $4.99). The hardbound copy is $19.99.


Heather also generously sent me a download of Kids of VirtueVille coloring book (sells for $3) which was wonderful for reinforcing what we learned.  My oldest is a bit out of the age range for this product (3-11) but my youngest still loves to color, and so do I!:)
