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!

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
UPDATE: GIVEAWAY HAD ENDED, Entry #4 won.
“Mommy I’m dancin’”
“Watch me pir-et mom!”
My little girl loves watching this DVD and is so cute dancing right along with it!
UPDATE: This giveaway ended, entry #37 won.
I reviewed a copy of Danny the Dragon, written by Tina Turbin and Illustrated by Aija Jasuna, and an accompanying CD which reads the book out loud then plays 10 original composition classical songs.
Me and my daughter follow the cd along with the book before bedtime. My daughter likes to listen to the CD and turn the pages at the chime. Then when its over I tuck her in and turn the volume on low and she goes to sleep with the music going. She thinks its really special.
The book is about a regular family who comes across Danny the Dragon and his sidekick Skipper. I won’t spoil the surprise on how Danny meets Jimmy and his family, but your children will love “where he sleeps” and learn from Danny as Danny is an easy-going, gracious dragon with great manners. The illustrations are very colorful and my daughter loved them.

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
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!

After telling my friends and husband about Baby’s First Phone Call, they all said (in their own way) “and why didn’t I know about this when I was in the hospital calling 20 people and telling the same story over and over again!”
How does Baby’s First Phone Call work?
- Before the baby is born, you enter the names and phone numbers of all the people you want to notify when the baby arrives.
- After the baby is born, you make a single phone call and leave a personal voice-mail message of any length with all the details you want to share; I would suggest information such as baby’s health, the hospital and room number you’re in, and whether and when you’d like to receive visitors.
- They get to hear the happy news straight from you and if they don’t answer it leaves them a message.
There will be 4 winners, each receiving a $50 Gift Certificate for Baby’s First Phone Call. These are transferable; meaning you will be able to give these as gifts at baby showers! They also don’t expire so you can hold on to them until you or someone you know is having a baby. SWEET: they are for unlimited amounts of people that you want on your calling list.
This giveaway has ended. A third party site, Random.org, has selected the winner.
The winner is: Entry #9, Bonnie P, who said “I have never tried it before”
I can’t stress enough that this is a different kind of lotion. It feels different when you put it on, silky is the best word I can think for it. It isn’t thick and sticky like some other lotions, and it dries very quickly when you put it on.
I like how it is for the whole body, including the face, and how it is safe for children because it is hypo-allergenic. This way it is in all-in-one purchase. I used it on my face and it didn’t cause any breakouts. I am very careful with what I put on my face. Many of you may have noticed I don’t wear any foundation or powder on my face because I feel like they make my face breakout. I was glad the lotion didn’t cause me any problems on my face!
It is great for moderately dry skin; I don’t know about severely dry hands though because Andrea (my friend with severely dry hands) felt like she needed the lotion re-applied to the severely dry areas quite often.
SkinMD is offering one lucky Cuckoo For Coupon Deals reader a free bottle of lotion (retail value $18). For the entire month of February our readers can also use coupon promo code “cfc4805″ for 20% off online purchases here.
If you are looking in-stores, this product is sold at Health Essentials Nutrition in Spanish Fork, at various Walgreen’s and Kmart locations, and at many other pharmacies nationwide.
