Worms from South Dakota

Our fellow native Iowans were comparing South Dakota's worms. Of course, Iowa's came out on top!

We did some digging in the garde

n this week, and I didn't find any of the big night crawlers like we did in Iowa.

I'm assuming they do really exist here. Kids had fun fishing with them, as well as this Wiggle & Waggle story by Caroline Arnold.

A few other picks are included that are new favorites - except I couldn't find a photo of Baa for Beginners by Deborah Fajerman (but I didn't hunt either). Guess I did better on searching for worms!

Speaking Topics

People are encouraged and motivated by Jennifer's humor, wisdom and practical advice for building and growing their love of studying what really matters. Jennifer's titles include Creativity with your Kids, Instilling the Love of Reading, The Family Meal Table, Humor Only and her personal testimony.

Creativity with your Kids Prepare to let creative juices spill over everywhere! Explore creativity through hands-on activities in small group brainstorming. The focus areas are of great interest to children— God's creation, family and friends. Since playtime is one of the best ways to connect with children, adults have a little playtime of their own. Further, learn about having a weekly family time to cement core values and grow character together.

Instilling the Love of Reading Different ages, various books and educational sources provide many directions to steer children into reading. It can be easy with guided suggestions to identify developmentally appropriate books for all ages and learning simple tips to keep your children running to the bookcase. In an age where reading and literacy is declining, find ways to grow the love of reading in the home.

The Family Meal Table Food is only the beginning of the blessings that can happen at the family table. If you’re struggling to re-claim this family time, learn biblical principles, hear practical advice and creative ideas to enrich your family.

Humor Only If you'd like your daily dose of humility and poking a little fun at yourself, you'll be all about hearing about screw-up's, messes and advice only women can share! Be Warned: Contemporary songs may be severely altered.

Testimony Coming to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is the beginning of the Christian adventure. Hear how Jennifer came to meet her Savior and has grown in her walk with Him. This invitation is for everyone – with the understanding, if you seek Him, you will find Him!
