Book Review: Inspirational Zingers Jumble


Here's my latest review:


My son and I have been busy this summer. I've been working hard to keep his mind stimulated with something other than video games. We've taken many trips to the library and to my surprise, he has enjoyed reading like never before!
Last month, I had the opportunity to review an activity book called "Inspirational Zingers Jumble" by Tyndale. My son does these types of word finds at school, so I thought it would be a fun way to pass the time this summer.
Inspirational Zingers Jumble is a book of all sorts of Jumbles (word finds). Jumbles are a kind of word scramble that takes bible scriptures and scrambles them. You then arrange the letters that are circled to form a word that completes the Zinger.
Inside, you'll find over 100 Jumbles. The categories are regular Jumbles, Double Jumbles, Mystery Person Jumbles, Word Search Jumbles, Super Jumbles, and Criss-Cross Jumbles.
If your family is really into bible trivia and puzzles, this would be a good activity for a road trip or a family game night. Some of the puzzles seemed a bit difficult for my little guy. In fact, I was stumped a few times myself! So make sure you have older kids or adults to help out.

Mom's Bible Review


Here's another book review that I did for The Coupon Sista blog that I wanted to share here.


I love reading, especially the Bible. I'm a busy mom and am always looking for inspiration to get me through the day.
That's why I like the "Mom's Bible, God's Wisdom for mothers". It has short, sweet notes throughout it by Bobbie Wolgemuth. The New Century Version is a bit different from what I'm use to, (I'm a King James or NIV kind of girl), but it's very easy to read and understand.
The look of this hardcover bible is both classy and elegant with paisley printed pages.
I found that this Bible's features were the best part. With many different topics to choose from, I could find a note to suit me for the day. The part I most enjoy is the "Walking In" topics, which help bring balance to my everyday life.
