Beeyoutiful: A Review

This year I have received some wonderful homeschooling products through the TOS Homeschool Crew for my kiddos: books, games and website memberships to name a few. However, receiving beauty/health products was a total fun surprise for me this winter!

Beeyoutiful is a company that believes in preventative natural products. This company is Christian-owned and believes that we should be responsible for our health. The creators of Beeyoutiful are endeavoring to sharing all of the natural remedies and health tools that they use with their own families. And they have quite an impressive collection of products!

The first of two products that I received was their Winter Breeze Vapor Rub. Let me just begin here by saying that I have always been a fan of that one good ol' vapor rub from my childhood. There is just something about the smell of menthol...I LOVE it! Seriously, if they made menthol-scented candles this weirdo would buy them!

Anyway, I was excited about this product, especially since it's the height of cold season and all. I really liked that I could understand everything on the ingredients list on the label, too. That is a very good sign! No petroleum in this stuff! I have been using it nightly to rub on my feet, it's done wonders for itchy dry skin. Of course it works great for those stuffy noses, too. I have been very impressed with this product and will continue to use it. It retails for $18.00.

The second product I received was their B.A.L.M. all-natural lip moisturizer. The timing couldn't have been better because I was going nuts trying to keep my lips from being dry and cracked. This winter has been rough on them! I have been using this daily since it came and I have to say the results have been great! I have not had the dryness problem that I was having since starting to use it. Again, the ingredients label shows a wonderfully legible list of four ingredients. This is just good stuff! It retails for $3.00.

When you go over to check out Beeyoutiful's website you can even shop their products by health concern. Their products are really worth checking out and I hope that you will. They do offer a paper catalog as well, if you prefer to browse that instead. Also, be sure to *like* their page on Facebook!

The Reading Game: A Review

I was excited to receive this review product recently, thinking my 1st-grade-son could really benefit and enjoy it a lot. And I was right! He is having so much fun with this game. The Reading Game is a fast-paced memory card game using words. The game comes with 6 sets of memory cards with 6 corresponding readers. The idea is for you and your student to play memory with each set of cards (playing 6 rounds with each set), after every 2 rounds your student then reads 2 test sentences to see how he is retaining the new words he is learning. After the whole set has been played, he is then ready to read the corresponding reader...and has learned 30 new words! By the time your student has played every set of cards and read every reader, he will have learned 180 words. Of the 25 most common English words, 23 are on that list; of the 50 most common words, 42 are on that list. So this little game of reading really does prepare your student well. The readers are illustrated with cute

The Making of an Egyptian Death Mask

We are learning all about the ancient world this year with Story of the World I and loving it! We've been learning a lot about Egypt, of course, which is completely fascinating. Most recently we have studied the New Kingdom of Egypt, which includes the story of King Tut. So we decided making an Egyptian death mask in the style of King Tut's would be a fun project. First since it was too cold at the time to paper mache in the garage (it probably would have frozen instead of dried-ha) and it was too messy to do it in the house, we decided to pick up a couple of cheap craft masks at Hobby Lobby. Next we cut out cardboard shapes to complete the shape of the death mask, attaching them with hot glue. Vince even put a little detail on the *beard* with the hot glue per The Princess' request. Then the kiddos started to paint them with this metallic gold tempera paint. It worked okay for the cardboard, but would not coat the plastic of the mask. We thought maybe a second coat

Door Hanger Chore Charts

My kids have had a chore chart for a while. It's one of those magnetic boards and they share it. However, it's not by their rooms and often they (and I) forget to update it. Plus it's a little bulky. When I saw the concept of a door hanger chore chart on Pinterest, I loved it! It was compact, right there were the kiddos could see it coming out and going into their rooms, and it costs almost nothing to make. I headed over to one of my favorite stores: Hobby Lobby, of course. They have these little wooden door hangers for .79. I also grabbed a couple of packets of decorative buttons for $1.99 each. I already had the clothes pins and the paint so those cost me nothing. I began by painting the door hangers (I used tempera paints because that's what I had). Then I grabbed a fine point Sharpie and the clothes pins and started writing chores on them, making sure to write them correctly so they will clip on the right direction. The left
