A Detective’s Guide to American History {Review of 2!}
Are you searching for fun ways to teach your children about key people and events in American history? Investigate this review of two resources--A Detective’s Guide to American History: 1800 to 1900 and A Detective’s Guide to American History: 1900 to 2000. Both guides are written for elementary students. The product desciption doesn't mention a specific age, but I'm thinking it is best suited for 3rd-5th graders. However, the content is adaptable. I learned several new things, and I'm well past fifth grade! These guides can easily be used to refresh the memories of older students. . .

I want to challenge us all to remember and reconnect with someone we've not talked with in awhile. Encourage and uplift them. The world will always offer negativity. Let's…

Ark Encounter Review: Family Vacation {2021}
Are you pondering a visit to the Ark Encounter in Kentucky? Our family visited the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter in the summer of 2021. Of course, things are always changing, but hopefully, you’ll find this review, as well as my review of the Creation Museum, timely and helpful. If you've ever wondered how big Noah's Ark was, how he built it, how he fit all the animals inside and took care of them, and perhaps, even wonder if the Bible is true at all, then the Ark Encounter is a place you'll want to consider researching for the answers.
