I have to say we loved these! We watched Ammon and Alma the Younger.  I thought my daughter wouldn’t be too excited about them -she’s almost 3 and in the extreme princess mode – but she was captivated by them.  In fact, she asks to watch them, and in the week we’ve had them has seen them several times.

If you don’t know what Living Scriptures are, they are animated stories from the Old and New Testament and the Book of Mormon.  They don’t just read the scriptures to you – instead they show the story as a cartoon with a plot.  They are extremely accurate and our whole family learned lessons from them. I recently reviewed “What’s In The Bible” and found Living Scriptures more enjoyable to watch.  My child is as excited to watch these as she is Dora!

On Living Scriptures site it says” About 90% of what comes on T.V. is violent and anti-gospel…only 2% is gospel oriented.”

The odds are stacked against our children; what a great idea to let them watch T.V., entertain them, and teach them at the same time.

We did a Family Home Evening where we used one of the bonus features, the quizzes, and we had lots of fun.  There were lots of other great bonus features, scriptures, FHE lessons & activities, etc.

We tried out Fiber One, Yoplait’s new yogurt and my daughter (pictured above) and my husband both really loved it.  I could taste the aftertaste of artificial sugar, so it wasn’t my favorite.  It’s a healthy snack for my daughter though, with 5 grams of fiber!

I also got a $50 Safeway gift card. There are some CuCKoO deals  there this week on vegetables (and we all know it’s hard to get good deals on those):

This Children’s DVD uses puppets to explain: the overall concept of the Bible, from who wrote it, why, how it all came together in one piece. Then it uses cartoons to explain: the individual stories in the bible.

I liked the cartoon parts of the DVD better then the puppets part. I think What’s In The Bible is more for children at least 5 years old. It moves too quickly and is too packed with information for any younger child.

There were 2 specific statements made that I disagreed with; you can email me if you want to know specifics.  I did think it did a good job of explaining about the creation when Moses wrote “Day” it could have meant God’s day, which could be thousands or millions of years in Earth days.  It also explained selfishness very well.

Giveaway: 1 Winner will get certificates for 2 free DVD’s: “What’s In The Bible” In The Beginning and Let My People Go

If you are a returning visitor, you may have noticed some changes to my site lately. I spent a few hours making over my logo and button.

I choose A Prudent Mom as my slogan because “A Prudent wife is of the Lord” and I’d like to strive to be that way, although I’m not there yet you have to dream it to accomplish it, right? So I bought the domain APrudentMom.com so that I can use that name and have it re-direct here (the re-direct isn’t working yet; it will be happening shortly).   I think it is easier to remember and spell then CuckooForCouponDeals!  But you don’t have to change a thing as far as bookmarking goes; I will still be owning/operating under the Cuckoo For Coupon Deals name too.  They’re one site combined.

But most importantly, I’d like to thank my husband for spending several hours working behind the scenes to make my site load faster. My site loads at least 2x faster now!

What do you gals think? I’d love any feedback as always!

Thanks Deal Seeking Mom

UPDATE: GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED, Entry #12 won.

This is the secret to getting kids to love brushing their teeth! My nearly-3 year old daughter never liked to brush, but I would say “You get a Tooth Fairy treat if you brush!” and she’d start brushing away.

Chewable tablets?

According to Dr. Jeffrey Hillman, D.M.D., Ph.D. “The probiotics in EvoraKids™ effectively compete with certain harmful bacteria for both nutrients and space on tooth surfaces.  Daily application of the special blend of probiotics in EvoraKids will help support healthy teeth in children.” Read more about them or order some here on EvoraKids.com

Netflix VS. Blockbuster

Both are offering free trials right now, which one is best for you?

Update: Entry #2 won.

I have the most obnoxious, tangly, frizzy, curly hair and have never fell “in love” with any shampoo or conditioner.

I think I may really like like Wen!  I used it on my hair for a month. It worked great on my hair, noticiably making it softer.  It also seemed to straighten it a little, which seems weird.  I straightened my hair after using Wen and it only took 45 minutes; it usually takes me over an hour.  Yes, that is using my ceramic straightner and curling iron.

So what’s the big deal with Wen? Well, it’s a conditioner that you use with no shampoo before or after. Really.   From their site “Wen cleanses as it conditions, with no detergents or harsh chemicals. It’s all-natural…makes color lasts longer” and the results (at least on my hair) were much softer hair.

UPDATE: GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED, VIEW WINNERS HERE

Didn’t win?  They sell for just $6.03 here on Amazon.com and they are eligible for free super saver shipping!

Thanks to Slice for giving me 8 extra slice safety cutters to giveaway! According to their site, “the recessed ceramic blade lasts longer than steel and never rusts. Ever.” So I can use my slice to cut coupons forever, sweet!
