Free bowling this summer



Register with Kidsbowlfree.com for

How it works is you purchase a Family Pass starting at $23.95, this includes the two games PER PERSON PER DAY!!  The Family Pass also 
covers up to four adult family members.  

It is a one-time payment good for the entire summer.  
It's a great deal if you and the kids enjoy bowling!  Have a picnic lunch before or  after and it's a Free Day of fun.  If you go two times the pass pays for itself, but remember you can go EVERY DAY!!!

Easter Message with Vinegar

In keeping with my love and use for vinegar, I came across this neat teaching tool to help tell kids some of the story of Easter!


Your children may have difficulties understanding that Jesus died for their sins. First of all, you may need to explain to them that sin is anything we do that keeps us from being friends with God. Bring out some grimy pennies and tell them the dirt on the pennies represents their sin. Then mix ¼ cup of white vinegar and 1 teaspoon of salt. Put the pennies in the vinegar m
ixture for about five minutes. They will come out shiny and clean! Explain that Jesus makes us shiny and clean too.

Swiffer Socks

I have a Swiffer Mop and I love it, it makes cleaning my floors so easy, but the the Mopping Refills can be pretty expensive. My alternative: an old sock!! It actually works really well; And I know we all have spare socks laying around, why not put them to good use!

I later found these helpful hints off Tipnut.com, it's better than paying for something you're just going to throw away!

I then mix up some vinegar and water and enjoy an eco-friendly cleaning, when I'm done I toss it in the washer. Give it a try!

Cloth Diapers

So cloth diapers huh? Who uses those any more? Aren't they those messy cloths that you have to safety pin and then cover with a gross plastic bag?


Well you'd be surprised to find out that more and more moms are switching to cloth diapers. And as out dated as many of you may think they are, you'd be surpised how far things have come.


Sure it might be a little messy and yes, you have to wash them out by hand, but it's another great way to save money, plus it's better for the environment.


I bought my Diaper Wraps from diaperaps.com where I spent $37 for 3 wraps, and my mom bought me some cloth diapers from Wal-Mart (yea mom!). So I haven't needed any disposable diapers in 3 months which means I'm now saving money!!

Here's some websites to check out:
