FREE Photo Books

Each month, in partnership with Amazon.com, Crossway publishers gives away a free book for Amazon Kindle owners.  This month they selected one of my all time favorite books,
Shopping for Time: How to do it all and not be overwhelemed. 

This book is a great heart-shepherding book on the way we choose our priorities. Not your typical time-management book. 

Here’s a description:
    Overwhelmed. Miserable. Exhausted. These are often the words women use to describe their high-demand lifestyles. How are women who are always on the go expected to cope with the demands of work, family, and ministry? Carolyn Mahaney and her three daughters, Nicole Whitacre, Kristin Chesemore, and Janelle Bradshaw, draw biblical principles from God’s Word to give women practical advice on how to fulfill and excel in their daily responsibilities.

If you use a Kindle, you can download it FREE today (this month). If you do not own a Kindle I suggest you at least purchase the paperback, but also read Jacob's review of the Kindle. My family and I went in together and bought him a Kindle for his last birthday. He uses it all the time.

Maybe a good idea for a Christmas present? If crossway continues to give books away in 30 months you've paid for your Kindle. Seriously! Honestly, the advantage of not having to put them on a bookshelf, or dust them, or take them on trips is what sold me.

I have been starting to take note of products that would be good for homeschooling. We have strongly been considering homeschool, so I am gonna start teaching now.

The Good Deal Gal made me aware that right now there is a great sale on Amazon all of the Leapfrog DVDs!

The LeapFrog - Letter Factory 627 5 star positive reviews. I definately going to purchase this one for Eli to get a head start on our phonics. Right now it's only $8.49 on Amazon - if you spend $25 or more you'll get FREE shipping too!

I think we might try the LeapFrog - Talking Words Factory.

They also offer the Leap Frog - Learn to Read at the Storybook Factory. This one might be a little advanced for Eli, but I might want to take advantage of the sale and free shipping.

It appears as though the Leapfrog - Math Circus is a good introduction to basic math concepts: association, addition and subtraction. .

If you are considering purchasing the Leapfrog- Math Circus I would encourage you to check out: Leap Frog - Math Circus/Talking Words Factory 2 - Code Word Caper as you get it plus the Talking Words Factory 2 for$16.49 down from $26.98 and less than the cost of each seperately. 

** Also, right now for purchasing a DVD or Blu ray disc from Amazon.com, you'll also get a $5.00 credit on select TV shows at the Amazon Video On Demand store.
