A Very Happy Easter Prayer {FrontGate Review}

by

A Very Happy Easter Prayer
Bonnie Rickner Jenson
Illustrated by Natalia Moore

As a Mom, I am always looking for great books to add to our home library.  I especially love books that are holiday themed.  I also love books that share God’s love with my children.

A Very Happy Easter Prayer by Bonnie Rickner Jenson is the perfect book for Easter.  The book itself is gorgeous.  The front cover is slightly textured which makes the book look beautiful with it’s shimmer and sparkle.

Natalie Moore out does herself with the adorable, yet beautiful imagery on each page of this absolutely wonderful board book.  The pages are filled with daffodils, picnics underneath the big tree that’s featured on the book’s cover, tulips with bee hives and so many more lovely things to see.

The cover features a trio of rabbits but the book inside is filled with many great animals: bees, a fox, an owl, a duck, a moose, a bear and so many more.  This book is about God’s wonderful world, so much more than just the rabbits.  You’re child will love seeing the love these animals share as friends and through God’s love as well.

The story itself shares thankfulness for Spring, for rain and gentle breezes. It shares thankfulness for bluebirds and dandelions and honey bees.  It shares thankfulness for fluffy bunnies, for adventures and for Jesus’ birth and love.  It shares thankfulness for all the things that make Easter morning special.

This is a lovely book that would be a great addition to any family library.  A Very Happy Easter Prayer by Bonnie Rickner Jenson is from Tommy Nelson Publishers and is part of their A Time To Pray series. It sales for $8.99 in bookstores and online.

ICB Prayer Bible {FrontGate Review}

by

We were gifted the ICB Prayer Bible by FrontGate Media a little while back in exchange for review.  When I agreed to this review, I had no idea how beautifully designed this Bible would be.  Y’all, when I say it’s gorgeous, it’s GORGEOUS!

The Bible is a beautiful light pink with gold stamped flowers in a ring pattern, and The Prayer Bible written in the same lovely gold.  What you don’t see in the image above is the beautiful irradescent sparkle that is splashed throughout the pattern of circles and dots on the image above.

This is an International Children’s Bible meaning it’s written in a format that children can understand and it can be used internationally with children from all over the world.  What a GREAT thing?!  Sharing God’s Word through this beautiful Bible with children from all over the world.

This precious full size Bible reminds me of the ones from my childhood.  It is designed with pages of quotes and scriptures inside.  The design shared on the front of the Bible is continued in the pages throughout the Bible itself.

There are also questions and answers shared throughout the Bible to help teach your child the importance of what they are reading and further open the discussion for your family.  This is a great way to grow and share together.  We loved these sections that were placed throughout the ICB Prayer Bible.

As a bonus, this Bible included a Prayer Journal that is a separate booklet from the Bible itself.  This is a great way to begin teaching your child to pray for others as well as learn to write prayers.  Fill it with your child’s own special prayers.

This beautiful ICB Prayer Bible in pink from Tommy Nelson is available for $22.99.  You’re little girl will love it.  There’s also an adorable boy’s version of the ICB Prayer Bible available in blue for purchase as well.

The BeLOVED Life Plush Travel Pillow {FrontGate Review}

by

This image belongs to The BeLOVED Life website.

$34.99
FrontGate Blogger Network blessed us with yet another amazing product.  They hooked us up with The BeLOVED Life for a free Plush Cushion Travel Pillow of our choice.  It was just in time for our Georgia trip too!
When reviewing I often receive products for the older kids but rarely find things for Jackson, my 4 year old.  I was pretty torn between a few designs when choosing this one.  There are just so many great products available at The BeLOVED Life. 
There was this awesome Cupcake Travel Pillow which Emma or Laycie would have LOVED!  The back is bright pink and says, “Taste and See ~ Psalm 34:8”. It’s adorable!
Then there was this beautiful purple plush pillow featuring a Crown.  This Princess cushion would have been awesome for Laycie!  The back says, “I Am Wonderfully Made ~ Psalm 139:14”.
The Wings of Eagles pillow would have been awesome for Winston.  It’s very manly in style.  The color is a nice tan featuring a Camo print Eagle.  The back says, “On The Wings of Eagles ~ Isaiah 40:31”.
Any one of these designs would have worked wonderfully for our home but there was one that truly stood out and I immediately thought of my Jackson when I saw it.  The very orange Strength Plush Cushion which features and adorable grey Robot with the word Strong across his chest.  My Jackson LOVES Robots and the color orange!
The back says, “I Can Do All Things Through Christ ~ Philippians 4:13”.
Jackson LOVES this pillow.  I gave it to him right after he woke up the morning it arrived. He was so excited that he immediately snuggled up to it.
He loves how soft the cover is.  I love that the brightly colored pillow IS actually a cover.  It unzips to allow you to wash it and the pillow inside can easily be replaced by an average size throw cushion.  (Did I mention it zips off so you can wash it??  How AWESOME is that?!!)
Our travel pillow came with a matching grey strap to make carrying easy.  Since this pillow was really designed for older kids of the preteen age, the strap is a great design to traveling with the pillow easy.  It also includes a great cell phone pouch for kids.  This is great to make keeping up with their often expensive phones easier and keeping it closer to them while they sleep or travel.
My personal opinion on the strap:
I felt the strap was stiff and hard like a backpack strap can be.  I tried to remove the cell phone pouch as my little one does need it but was unable to get it off without cutting it which I didn’t want to do.  The hooks are hard which aren’t really cuddly when you use the actual pillow and would personally bother me.  I think this aspect could be better designed though I like the idea of it.
The Strength Pillow itself:
This thing is ultra soft.  Jackson (age 4) loves to rub his hands over the soft cover when going to sleep.  Sometimes he stuffs his hand into the pocket on the back.  He likes to stick toys in the pocket too but it’s kind of flat and tight which makes it challenging for his toys.  It would be great for a journal or a notebook or book your reading.  Pokemon cards fit great too.  A small blanket may fit in there but it would have to be really lightweight.  
The embroidered pattern of the Robot and the writing on the back of the pillow are equally soft and do not distract from the comfy feel of the pillow.  I cannot even explain how soft this pillow is.  It completely amazed me.  Jack absolutely loves that.  He’s a texture lover.
As a little bonus, the company sent us a little Light Bulb key chain which I gave Laycie.  We stuck it onto her new purse so she can rub it for sensory.  She loves it as much as Jack.  It’s a great comfort tool for her ADHD.
Honestly, I could just go on and on about this super awesome pillow but I know you probably would like to know how to get your own.  There are several more versions available other than the ones I mentioned here.  The BeLOVED Life STRENGTH Plush Cushion Travel Pillow for Kids is available for $34.99.  For me, it’s totally worth the price for the joy it’s brought my kids.

As a bonus The BeLOVED Life is holding a giveaway where you could WIN your own Plush Travel Pillow for your loved one!  Click the Link below to enter.

God Loves Daddy & Me {FrontGate Review}

by

Bonnie Rickner Jensen
This review comes to us from FrontGate Blogger Network.  We were gifted a free copy of God Loves Daddy & Me by Bonnie Rickner Jensen.  A few weeks ago we reviewed another book in this series called God Loves Mommy & Me also written by Bonnie Rickner Jensen.  You can read that review here.
God Loves Daddy & Me is very similar to God Loves Mommy & Me in design and artwork which are both done by Laura Watkins.  Laura and Bonnie work great together to create adorably intriguing books for children.  These books are simply awesome!

God Loves Daddy & Me features an adorable Raccoon Daddy and baby.  These guys really make you want to cuddle them up.  God Loves Mommy and Me featured an adorable set of Bunnies.  The Raccoons are a little more manly, in my opinion, which is great since this story is about Daddy!
The story takes the Raccoons on an adventure together showing all the way through that God is there and God loves them both.  They build forts, they go out in their boat, they take walks together just to talk.  One of my favorite parts is how they work together to get things done, like chores and then they can have lots of fun!
They play and camp, they hug and love and forgive one another.  And best of all, they pray.  Together they pray for the good and the bad in their days.
This is a wonderful christian book for your little one and just in time for Father’s Day!  You can grab a copy of God Loves Daddy & Me for $6.50 from Amazon.  You’ll love adding this one to your library at home.

Armed With Truth Temporary Tattoos {FrontGate Review}

by

For this review, we were sent some goodies from Armed With Truth.  Armed With Truth provides quality temporary scripture tattoos that are safe and non-toxic.  You can share and wear the word simply by placing on one of their many tattoo designs.

For this review, we chose the Comforted collection from the Verse Ten Pack Tattoos collection and the Grace Tattoo by Patrick Maxcy from the Designer Tattoo collection.  All of the temporary tattoos were well designed and easy to apply.  You simply peel off the plastic cover, place against your skin or wherever you’d like to place these, and  then place a wet cloth (I used a napkin) to saturate so they peel off with ease.

These tattoos last 3-5 days.  I placed mine on my hand though and found it only last me 2 days because of frequent hand washing.  The second time I tried them I placed them further up my arm with better results.  They lasted four days that time.

My children also liked these tattoos.  They enjoyed the verses shared by them.  It was a great way to spread and share the word with others.

Our set contained verses from Psalms and other comforting verses from the Bible.  There were tattoos with longer and shorter verses.  All of the tattoos were encouraging.

From the Designer collection, we received the Grace tattoo.  I loved this one!  It features the wing of an angel, much like my personal wing tattoo I have on my back.  They were small size wise but great for a shoulder or upper arm.  I chose this image because of my love of Angel wings and the strength they show.  Grace brought that same feeling to me when I saw it and when I wore it as well.

You can purchase your very own set of temporary tattoos in a style that fits you from Armed With Truth for $10.99 for the Verse Ten Packs or $4.99 for the Designer Collection.  With any Verse Ten Pack Collection, you receive ten temporary tattoos.  With any Designer Collection tattoo set you receive two tattoos in the design requested.

For our readers, Armed With Truth is offering a 20% off coupon if you use the code luvnlambert at checkout.
