Grandma Was Right After All! Review

I just love John Rosemond's parenting books! I have read almost all of them and couldn't wait to read this one when I saw that had come out. I have potty trained both of my boys by the time they were 2 with "Toilet Training Without Tantrums" and have been a huge fan every since.

Grandma Was Right After All! is a great, quick read. It goes through common phrases that our grandmothers might have said. They align perfectly with Rosamond's no-nonsense style of parenting. I appreciate that each section was broken down into easy-to-read paragraphs.  It takes what can sometimes be overwhelming material and makes it easy to follow and comprehend.

I'm a big fan of Rosemond and recommend his books to all of my friends. Grandma Was Right After All! is no exception and I highly recommend it. I don't agree with all of his assessments of our country, but I take the big picture and appreciate his "old school" insight into parenting.

I received this book for free from Tyndale in exchange for my honest review.

The Postage Stamp Vegetable Garden

The Postage Stamp Vegetable Garden is a must read for new gardeners! My four year old son and I have been wanting to start a garden and when I saw this book up for review on Blogging for Books I just knew I had to get it. And it did not disappoint! I learned everything I need to know to plant an awesome vegetable garden. The book is chock full of great advice and information including garden maps and a list of every vegetable with information on how to best grow each variety. The author gives great advice on soils, compost, where to plant, how to plant, and when to harvest. I can't recommend this book enough! Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy. I will have it with me year-round as I am growing my first crop of veggies. I received this book for free from Blogging For Books. These opinions are my own.

This is a wonderful cookbook for young chefs! My boys loved the recipes and how clearly everything was laid out and organized. I loved how many flavors and cultures were introduced through the recipes. I highly recommend this cookbook to all adult/child chef partners and solo chefs ages 8 and up.  I just reviewed Kids Cook Dinner by Deanna F. Cook. #KidsCookDinner 

The Christian Parenting Handbook

I've been reading The Christian Parenting Handbook and it's great! Dr. Scott Turansky and Joanne Miller wrote the book and say you will learn how to:  Identify character qualities to address problems Build internal motivation Use creativity to teach your kids spiritual truths I love the way the book is set up with 50 short chapters on different parenting tips, common problems, and biblical truths. It's perfect to pick up and read whenever you have a free second. They offer real, practical, and biblical advice. I really appreciated the way the authors gave concrete examples and how to  implement them into your family.  One of my favorite chapters is titled "Don't Practice In The Grocery Store-That's The Final Exam." It's all about what to do when your child acts out in public. They wisely suggest that you, "practice in the kitchen, bedroom, laundry room, and backyard. Children need to learn how to handle disappointment at home so they can accept a
