I had the chance to read several really great books to my children recently. They all had the common theme of helping bring awareness to healthy living, eco friendly living, or being socially conscious and of course they were all meant for children. I have decided to focus on each book individually so as not to overwhelm you and I will review the others another day. The first book we read was Three Grin Salad - A Kid's Recipe for a Happy and Healthy Life by Aja King. Aja is not only a … [Read more...]

Product Review: Sealerz

A Product That Could Save Children
