Flags Flags Everywhere

Everywhere I turn today.

I see flags, flags everywhere.

Flags on poles.

Flags on cars.

Flags on cakes.

Flowers of flags

Cupcake Flags.

People wearing flags.

The colours red and white.

It's Canada Day.

Celebrate shall we!

Enjoy the flags.

Enjoy the cakes.

Remember the history.

For today of all days.

Canada is 150!

I find it relaxing and fun to do them as random word posts for myself and you.  :)

Review: The Pirate's Guide t' th' Grammar of Story

So  The Pirate's Guide t' th' Grammar of Story: A Creative Writing Curriculum is an interesting program to me.  My son initially fought me hard on it, but I've never sen him have so much fun with a grammar/story program ever, nor have I seen him change his opinion so radically. 

I am impressed with the change.

So let me tell you more.

Review: The Beginner's Bible for Little Ones

 The  Beginner's Bible for Little Ones is a board book put together for our little ones.  It's a sturdy board book. With lots of colourful pictures to delight the eye as they learn the basic facts about eight stories from the bible, selected from both the Old and New Testament.

The stories contained are:

• The Beginning
• Noah's Ark
• The Mean Giant
• Daniel and the Lions
• An Angel Visits Mary
• Baby Jesus is Born
• Jesus Feeds Thousands
• Jesus is Alive

Each story is four pages long with a short amount of text on each page under a picture.  I appreciated that the pictures weren't obviously Anglo-Saxon but made me think of a more middle eastern look.  Though I'm not sure the blond hair is really Middle Eastern.  :)

I liked that the biblical reference was provided, making it easy to start with the story in the book, and then use the bible to expand on the details.   

 My Thoughts:
 It's a nice little book for what it is... a way to introduce familiar bible stories to little children.  It does that.  It doesn't mention sin, though it mentions people doing bad things, among which is forgetting who God is.  God's protection of his people is made clear which is an important thing for littles to know.  God watches over us full well!
