Review: Slugs & Bugs Sunday Songs – New Music!

After 5 years, Slugs & Bugs has new music coming out!  My kids LOVED Slugs & Bugs when they were little!  If you haven’t heard of Slugs & Bugs, you’re in for a real treat!

Classic songs include:

  • Father Abraham
  • This Little Light of Mine
  • The Wise Man Built His House Upon a Rock
  • I’ve Got the Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy
  • He’s Got the Whole World In His Hands, and more!

Although the classic songs are awesome, I found myself really enjoying the song Lydia, Seller of Purple.  It was so catchy!!! I love that children are learning Bible truths through these songs.

If you have any littles or engage with younger kids, these songs are a MUST!  Everyone will love them!

To find out more about the new music and other popular albums, head on over to the Slugs & Bugs website.

Walmart has just dropped the price of 8 different Disney Princess dresses to just $10!  Dresses include Moana, Belle, Snow White, Ariel, Aurora, Elsa, Jasmine, and Rapunzel!  This is a great price point for a Halloween costume or for every day dress up!  Sizes are from 4-12!  Snag one or all!  I’m betting these will sell out quickly at this price!

Review: Adventures in Odyssey – The Imagination Station: Drought, Wind, and Fire!

We were gifted a copy of this book to facilitate a review.  All opinions are our own.  

Goodness.  It has been a whirlwind over the past week or so.  Like many families, we were hit with the stomach bug and then I got a terrible bout of vertigo.  It’s been so hard to keep my youngest busy and occupied while I’ve been unwell.  Thankfully, we were recently sent Adventures in Odyssey The Imagination Station Drought, Wind, and Fire by Marianne Hering and Marshal Younger.  We love listening to the audio dramas of Adventures in Odyssey and having a new adventure book was just what we (and he) needed this week.

This series has over 1 million books sold and it’s easy to see why.  The books suck you right in!  Drought, Wind, and Fire follows along with the Biblical prophet, Elijah, and readers learn how God works even in the darkest moments of our lives.  

You’ll definitely want to add Drought, Wind, and Fire to your Christmas lists, and perhaps even more of the series!  I know we will be!  Anything that gets my boy reading is a WIN in this house!

Review: Testament on Angel Studios + GiftCard Giveaway!

The past few days, I’ve been watching a great new show called  Testament on Angel Studios.  It’s on that has completely drawn me in!  In  Testament, you can watch The Book of Acts in a more modern drama.  It’s really neat to see the directors take on what these amazing stories would look like in current time.  And wow.  You must watch it to see how amazing it is!

About the Series:

A resurrection sparks a movement that turns the world upside down, spreading hope amid chaos. As the followers risk everything to preach the good news, the Temple races to silence them before the oppressive Imperium regime retaliates. But public miracles, unburied secrets, and fractured loyalties force both sides to confront the true cost of their choices. This series will challenge you, move you, and make you rethink what it means to truly follow Jesus. With the modern setting, you’ll relate to these people and stories like never before.

Review: The King of Kings on Angel Studios!

Many thanks to Angel for providing a one month Angel Guild membership for this review. Opinions are 100% my own.

About The King of Kings:

What a beautiful movie The King of Kings is!  So well done and entertaining for the whole family.  My kids and I were given a month of Angel Studios so we could watch this great movie.  This is one to watch with the whole family!  My son has already asked to watch it again.

Inspired by Charles Dickens, The King of Kings features a father telling his son the greatest story ever told, and what begins as a bedtime tale becomes a life-changing journey. Through vivid imagination, the boy walks alongside Jesus, witnessing His miracles, facing His trials, and understanding His ultimate sacrifice. The King of Kings invites us to rediscover the enduring power of hope, love, and redemption through the eyes of a child.

Where to Watch:

You can watch The King of Kings and other great movies through Angel Studios Guild Membership.  After just having this membership for only a few days, I think we are totally keeping it!  I found great shows like The Wingfeather Saga and movies like The Last Rodeo.  I love that it is good, clean movies for the family, but also that they are entertaining!  Sign up now to start streaming.

Many thanks to Living Scriptures+ for providing a sample of the product for this review. Opinions are 100% my own.

I was recently introduced to a streaming service called Living Scriptures+.   Living Scriptures+ offers a safe, uplifting streaming experience centered on timeless values like faith, family, integrity, and compassion and features over 5,000 titles and growing!  Upon a quick look, I was  excited to see a bunch of different movies and shows that we would love to watch.  You’ll even find some educational shows like Drive Thru History and The Bible Project, along with some fun cartoons like Strawberry Shortcake, Babar, and Fireman Sam. There is plenty for everyone!  We’ve enjoyed having a nice change from some of the other streaming services.
