building lasting memories for you and your children.

We had loads of fun with this book, making the web was hilarious as we got ourselves all wrapped up in love and laughter. The bible verses that one shares with the children are thought provoking and inspirational, and the children asked a lot of questions that we did our best to answer. I liked how each chapter was broke down by a warm up, a kind of question and answer period between family members. Then a bible reading is shared and discussed with each family member, there are questions for the younger kids as well as your teens, so that no one is left out. After the discussion, your lead to an activity time that takes the lessons you just learned in discussion and actively participate in the learning that they were trying to promote. As well, each activity has a quote for the day, which one is to reflect upon and use it to grow with.

The kids really liked the activities and there is a complete listing of all items required to participate, most are things you have around your house, like rolled socks, bowls, string, popcorn, some movies and you and your families participation. I would recommend this book for any Christian family looking for some rewarding fun, or those families that may have the right foundation and just need some guidance along the way. We enjoyed the book and look forward to participating with it some more in the future...the kids are looking forward to the popcorn and Incredibles movie night...LOL
