My grandkids (Abigail, Isaac and Rebekah) playing on the BIG Blue Ball!
Hello!
I remember hearing Bill Cosby say, "Give me 100 two-year-olds and I can conquer the world!" Yep. I agree. Kids have SO much energy, don't they? Someone just needs to figure out how to harness that energy up to the vaccum cleaner, dishwasher, washing machine, etc. and we'd all save on our electricity bill!
 In the meantime, how about some great toys to burn off some of that highwire juice?! Our fantastic toys will make Christmas morning way too fun! Buy from this email and we'll send you a FREE set of jacks and ball, a fun little stocking stuffer. This free gift is our way of saying "thanks to you!" for shopping with us.
Take a look at the active-energy-burning toys to make Christmas Day exciting!

view | Jump Rope + Anna Banana Book 10% OffCombines our standand, very popular jump rope and our favorite jump roping book:
Red Jumprope, 8 ft long—
I've been holding out on you, friends. For years I have looked at this special jump rope and thought to myself, "Who needs it? Just use any old rope". I have been a slow convert to the idea of a nice jump rope, but here is why I bought one: no more scratched up ankles or "whipped" legs from bristly old garage-scrounged-up ropes, no more wooden handles to knock little ones in the head when the rope is accidentally yanked out of your hands, no more stiff ropes that just won't bend and flex for those young beginners that need a forgiving soft rope to learn on. This premium jump rope won't kink, is silky soft and will not stiffen or dry out and become bristly, needs no handles, is a good heavy weight for better control and a nice "throw", is washable and comes in a vibrant colorfast confetti design, wears wonderfully well, and is worth every penny of investment for such a healthy exercise and coordination producing activity as jump-roping! Lots of fun for both boys and girls (and Moms and Dads)! Red jumprope is 8 feet long.
Anna Banana Book—
Cinder-ella—-dressed-in-yella. . . You remember them, but how are your children going to learn them? This unique book lends humor and poetry to jumping rope by presenting more than 100 traditional rhymes. Wacky illustrations too. Paperback, 64 pages.

Hi!
I am Diane Hopkins, mother of 7 children (ages 14 to 34) whom I have had the privilege of homeschooling over the past 23 years. I'm a mom, just like you, and have those fabulous days and those not-so-good days like we all do. My hope in writing is to share experiences, and hopefully we can encourage one another in this wonderful, intense adventure of childraising--that is really what homeschooling is, after all.
Hoping to help, if I can!
Love, Diane
