Book Review: My Little Prayers

The My Little Prayers book is perfect for small hands.  The book is broken down into 8 themes: Day, Mealtime, Bedtime, Family/Friends, Things, Feelings, Special Days, Time With God. There are traditional kids prayers, quotes, and Psalms based prayers. This book has some basic prayers you can teach your little ones for meal times and such. I will definitely use this as a starting point in teaching my little ones to pray. The illustrations are very sweet as well.

Book Review: My Little Bible

I guess based on the title of the book, My Little Bible, I shouldn't have been surprised by the size of the hard-covered Bible, but I was. It's literally little, the same size as the iPhone 6 plus (perfect size for little hands). This Bible has both old and new testament stories that are easy for little ones to understand and brief enough for parents to use as devotionals before bedtime. Very sweet illustrations for each 1 page story, references listed for each story, and a follow up question to help reinforce the story. My 2 year old was very excited to receive this Bible. I would recommend it for all preschoolers.

Book Review: Baby Wren and the Great Gift

Baby Wren and the Great Gift by Sally Lloyd-Jones is a beautiful hardcover book with a wonderful little story. The baby wren sees many animals and their talents and wishes he could also do those things, until he realizes he can sing beautifully! The illustrations are absolutely beautiful! I would recommend this book for preschoolers! Your little one will enjoy all of the various animals, birds, fish, and the lesson that we each have our own talents!

Book Review: Night Night, Mommy

Night Night, Mommy is the second book of Amy Parker I've gotten because these books are just so sweet. I got Night Night, Daddy because I thought my husband would enjoy reading to our little ones, and I got this one hoping I'd enjoy reading it to our little ones. This book, like the Night Night Daddy book has adorable illustrations. I love that the book follows basic bedtime routine most children will be able to relate to. This book is a good quality board book for little ones to enjoy! I recommend getting both as a set for new parents! A great baby shower gift.

Book Review: Night Night, Daddy

Night Night, Daddy by Amy Parker is a very sweet bedtime story of a fox and the daddy spending a wonderful day together. The little fox reminds me of a little boy enjoying a summer evening with his dad, camping, eating pancakes for dinner, flying kites, telling stories around a camp fire and sleeping in a tent. The board book is high quality and the illustrations are so adorable! The story is sweet and a quick read for those little ones who like to read lots of books before bed. I would give the book a 4 star for the story itself, but the quality of the board book and illustrations make it a 5.

Book Review: The Berenstain Bears Bear Country Fun Sticker and Activity Book

The Berenstain Bears Bear Country Fun Sticker and Activity Book has 32 pages of classically illustrated activities with our favorite characters and a variety of activities. The best part of this activity book is that the stickers are reusable. If you've ever used stickers with a 2 year old, you know how important it is to be able to peel off stickers and put them somewhere else. The only thing is, it's kind of difficult to re-peel off the stickers... your little one may need a little help. Also, because the pages are a bit glossy, makers and pens should be tested before your little one goes to town on it! Or your little one may have more smudges of colorful markers/pens on themselves and in the book. I think overall, this is a cute activity book for kids from ages 2-6. 

Book Review: My Bedtime Story Bible for Little Ones

My Bedtime Story Bible for Little Ones byJean E. Syswerda is a nice little boardbook with bedtime devotionals for little ones. The stories are quick and easy to read for beginner readers as well. I like that each story ends with "Good night" to the characters and "Good night. Sleep tight." There is also a "Tuck In" section with things for your little ones to thank God for. Very sweet.

Even though this would not be my first choice for bedtime devotionals, I think toddlers will like the color illustrations and the stories of our favorite Bible characters.
