Can you give a caption to this photo? I know I’m not even close to a professional, and it’s not the best photo, but Elias looking up at his daddy like that just melts me.
The prize for the person with the best caption will be something I hope everyone could use.
I would like to start out by saying this isn’t a sponsored giveaway. I’m giving this away myself, because I like these things, and think you might too.
“Mighty Mind” is a puzzle set that we use when homeschooling David. It has a bunch of different geometric shapes, and then cards that have a picture they need to try to create using the given shapes. There are several levels, so it works for a preschooler, as well as an older child (ok…maybe adults have been known to do them from time to time as well.)
You may not have little kids at home, but at the very least I figure most readers at least have kids visit your home from time to time. I figured anyone could use a small game that will keep a preschooler (and older) occupied for hours, but can easily be tucked away in a drawer and requires no batteries. It’s quiet, it’s good thinking, and it’s lots of fun. Just ask David. This isn’t David’s set…don’t worry. He wouldn’t have that. This is a brand spankin’ new one just for the winner.
We all know, homeschoolers or not, that you can develop the brain as much as you want, but it means nothing if God doesn’t have their heart. This Steve Green cd is a great way for kids to learn Scripture, and will be sent along with the Mighty Mind puzzles.
That way, you can bless on the children in your life by ministering to both their heart and mind.
Only one comment per person please! I’ll keep the comments open all the way through Tuesday night (I’ll probably close them close to midnight…or whenever Solveig goes to sleep).
