I was introduced to this book a couple of years ago, when I stumbled upon the seasonal activity for the story on Pinterest.  I laminated the free printables and glued them to craft sticks for the kids to hold.  I continue to read it when autumn rolls around and I think other families will enjoy it too!  So, keep your eyes peeled for this one at your local library or find your own copy here: https://amzn.to/31YS0nH

In hindsight I realized I can make good use of our Maracas for the "shake shake" and other instruments for the other various sound effects required!

I found the 7 tips shared in the article, "Setting Realistic Goals: 7 Keys To Set Goals You Can Actually Achieve," to be sound and practical advice.  

Let's talk about tips you also find useful and what you think about these as well.  This episode is a focus on the first key.  More to follow for each as I go.   

In the meantime, best of luck with your goal setting and mine!
