Usborne Bookshelf Giveaway: "My Sister's A Pop Star"


One of the books I received in my kit when becoming an Usborne Books & More consultant was this novel by Kimberly Greene; My Sister's A Pop Star. This book is a little too advanced for my young children but I love doing giveaways and know a lot of friends who have older kids or know a young lady who might enjoy reading this.

This story is part of the Pop Star series, and books 1-3 are charming middle elementary school girls state-side over. This is book 1 out of the series, where we meet the main character, Sam, who loves to blog, and her pop-star singing sensation sister, Danni.

Series chapter books are excellent ways to get reading going, as children who fall in love with the character set will generally like the entire series. Remember the Box Car Children or the Babysitter's Club? There's a mystery to solve in this series, too.

These books are all paper back books, and for $5.99 per title, it's a great deal for your voracious reader, who will no doubt enjoy the almost 300 pages of this title. You can even read a chapter excerpt here.

To enter this giveaway simply leave a comment on this blog. Do a separate comment for 1) following my blog 2) follow me on twitter or 3) tell me the last Usborne or Kane Miller book you read to your child. Drawing will be held March 29th and the winner will be emailed, so make sure your email is attached to your comments! Good luck.

Home School Activities: Board Games We Love

My children have recently become enthralled in the world of board games. I was never a board game player. Sure, I remember long summer hours (days? it seemed like it..) spent around a Monopoly board, but I was never one to suggest to get out the cards, or a game. As my children have grown and they are now able to do activities with me, I started noticing that they really took to puzzles (when done all together) and the one or two board games I happened to have kept in the storage room. They were always asking to play Candy Land and so I figured I should branch off a bit. Over the course of the last year, I have found GREAT games, even ones that I love to play alongside them. The amount of 'teaching' they have gotten through games is jaw-dropping. Counting, team-playing, math related patterning, are just some of the skills I've watched develop. I asked before Christmas on facebook what my friends and their own kids loved and I was thrilled with the response. We have found ov...

Home School Resources: Links we Love

Source: ladyanndeborja.tumblr.com via Sarah on Pinterest Today I'm just sharing a list of my favorite go-to resources for home schooling. It's a list of where I find games, books, crafts, and fresh inspiration. Also included are articles I've loved about home schooling. One of my favorite websites about homeschooling, updated daily, is Simple Homeschool . It's a shoot off branch of SimpleKids & SimpleMoms, and they often have great giveaways, advice, and have concise and interesting topics. A friend recently guided me to World Book Online to find the general requirements of each grade. At the curriculum fair I went to in April, I remembered two vendors that I want to revisit if they return. One was Hepner's Legacy and the other was Miller's Pads and Papers (don't be fooled by the poor websites, they have great products at good prices). TED Talks . Go. Watch. Now. All of them. Awesome. Even if home schooling is a laughable topic to you, you're ...

Lukka's Birthday Interview // 17

17! You're FINALLY 17! You can drive independently, and you have read the manual, watched professional drivers and gleaned tips from others about this test that you've been dreaming about for years. You were given a car by a friend of ours, cleaned it to perfection, fixed it up in places, and have driven your sister and friends all over for the past week in near-unbridled joy. I am so happy for you (and I'd be lying if I wasn't happy for me, too)! You are such a mature and kind-hearted young man. You have big plans and are taking the steps to proactively execute them. You are sweet to your sister even if you'd deny it in front of your friends, and your relationship with her has come full-circle back to being as close as you two were in your littlest years.  You have so many goals and you work hard to achieve them! You prioritize what's important to you, and are willing to cut the rest. Although I sometimes wonder how you will remember to get to appointments with...
