BLOG HOP 2010

Good morning, lovely bloghoppers! Welcome to Impress Your Kids! And just what is this blog all about?

Well, it started as an online journal. I chronicled the activities I did with my daughter to teach her about God. We memorized verses, made crafts and read books. I used all of this to point her to the Bible. To Jesus. Pretty soon I realized the web was lacking in resources I needed. And I began to think that perhaps other mamas were out there looking for the same things I was.

There are lots of homeschool blogs. This is not one of  those. Although I do believe I am my children’s most influential teacher.

There are lots of craft blogs. This is not one of those. Although we do fun crafts on a regular basis.

There are lots of parenting blogs. This is not one of those. Although we discuss parenting styles, trials and successes.

There are lots of encouraging mama blogs. This is not one of those. Although I pray you are encouraged on your journey as a mother while you are here.

This blog is none of those–but it is all of them. It’s the toolbox you didn’t know you need. It’s the place to find creative ideas that will IMPRESS God’s Word on the hearts of your kids. It’s the blog that’s full of tried and true (or at least tried!) activities from a real mom and her kids. It’s the push you need to do more with your kids and to be purposeful about leading them to Jesus.

Here are some of my favorite posts (from me and some from some of my greatest mom friends/contributors):

Glittery Promise Rings (Abraham’s Promise, that is!)

Baby Bedtime Routine

He Is More Awesome (a lesson in RESPECT!)

Christmas/Advent Ornaments

And if you do need some parenting encouragement check out When Momma Apologizes, Dear Lydia and Have a New Kid By Friday!
