National Waffle Day

Yesterday was national waffle day. Yes you read that right there is such a thing as national waffle day J Well that was all this Momma needed to know in order to break out the waffle iron for dinner. I decided that in celebration of waffles everywhere we would have to make them really special.

Then you tell your children they get to eat this for dinner you might get a face like this.

And then a plate that looks like this.

My five year old ate 5!! My three year old ate three bites and licked the toppings off the rest :-/

Still they had fun and it really made me think. They are small for such a short period of time and I really want them to have good memories of their childhood and remember all the fun times we had together as a family. These silly “holidays” are a great and inexpensive way to make memories with my kids. If you are looking to make your own memories today is National Banana Split Day! I think I’m going to like this! So if you are looking for a reason to celebrate today or any other day you can check the widget that I added to my side bar.

The Wackiest Wildest Weirdest Animals in the World by Jack Hanna

I just had the opportunity to review The Wackiest Wildest Weirdest Animals in the World by Jack Hanna. This is a great book for kids and adults alike. I had to pry the book away from my three year old just so I could look at it to do this review. It is pretty big so the pictures are large and of course colorful. There are 30 different animals featured. Each one has it's own page and at least one large color photograph. Every animal has basic facts listed about it such as what they eat, where the live, and how big they are. Then you can read why Jack thinks they are wild, weird, or wacky plus read a couple other fun facts about them. This is a great book for anyone interested in animals or for teaching children. My three year old loves to look at the pictures and let me tell her about the animals but I think older children would really like this book too. It would make a great gift.  If you want to learn more about becoming a book reviewer you can go here.
