Tractor Mac Books and Giveaway + Tractor Footprint Craft
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Macmillan. The opinions and text are all mine. A book series that features a tractor and farm animals? Those are some of my son's favorite things, so I wasn't surprised when he sat down and let me read two Tractor Mac books in a row! He is four years old, which falls in the middle of the Tractor Mac books recommended age range (2-7 years). The adventures of Tractor Mac and his ...

Montessori: Map Work (Pre K Children’s Book)
I really did not know much about Montessori education when we received a review copy of Montessori Map Work by Bobby and June George. This children's geography book introduces the Earth's continents and animals that live on them. I was curious to see what makes a book "Montessori." I have learned a little bit about what Montessori education is about, which helps me make sense of how things are presented in the Montessori Map Work book ...
Early Learning with DK Baby Touch and Feel Books
I discovered bestselling DK Baby books several years ago when my oldest son (he's 10 years old now!) was a baby. We both loved the colorful, real life pictures. I can't even begin to count the hours we spent reading our favorite DK baby books together. I remember him being so little that I would have to help him reach out and touch the pages. He especially loved to feel the lion's mane. I am a DK blog ambassador. This post is part of a ...
