Grace & Gratitude: Devotional & Activities

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog6 Comments

Have you ever really stopped to think about what the word ‘thanksgiving’ actually means to you? Or does this season just get too busy to even enjoy or reflect?

If that is the case for you, then this devotional might be a good thing. It would also be a nice way to involve the whole family during the week of Thanksgiving or maybe even the week before the holiday… however you wish to use it. Don’t let the time of year stop you from checking this out because it doesn’t have to be reserved for November! We can always use a refresher on how to practice GRATITUDE!

I’ve made it into a printable PDF, so it is easier for our homeschool, and maybe that will make it easier for you. If anyone needs me to type it out on the blog, I can do that also, just let me know in the comments below.

DIY Advent Games: Engage Kids This Holiday Season

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog4 Comments

Hey, it’s me again…

After I made the DIY Bingo cards I decided to go ahead and finish crossing off some more things on my To-Do List… some of them have been on that list forever as I only pull my Polar Express folder out once a year.

We have a pile of fun games that you can play at your next Christmas get-together or you can use them anytime during this Advent/Christmas Season. Many of these can be used even without printing out this packet, if you are unable to do so.

We will be using a lot of these during our next Polar Express party as well as some outside games like Corn Hole and Washer Toss, weather permitting. The kids are super excited and I’m so happy that they look so nice. I hope someone else might find these helpful.

God Bless!
