One Christmas Bear For You and Your Little Ones

One of my favorite things I love to do is read to little ones. It always so fun to watch their reactions to the story and the pictures. We started reading to our boys, well pretty much right after they were born. It has been something very important to my husband and me. Reading is a must in our lives and both our boys love to read too.

But for me, it was something more. That special time, cuddled with your little one and sharing a special story. It's a wonderful bonding time and the closeness to each other is a very calming and relaxing thing.

My husband liked to make books very entertaining. He would make voices for the characters in them. His favorite to read to them included a fairly good imitation of Richard M. Nixon.

But just reading any old book is not enough. I think it is vital to make sure you are reading books to your little ones, your not so little ones, and encouraging your older kids to read on their own, books that are going to help them draw closer to God.

One sweet book that is available right now is just precious, One Christmas Bear, written and illustrated by Anne Vittur Kennedy.

Count the joys of Christmas with Christmas Bear and his arctic friends in One Christmas Bear, the new holiday-shaped board book for toddlers and preschoolers by Anne Vittur Kennedy. With beautiful illustrations and simple, rhyming text, One Christmas Bear is perfect to help little ones learn to count, and wonderful for families to enjoy together. Little ones will love to count seasonal elements, such as crunchy candy canes, colorful ornaments, and frosty snowflakes, and parents will appreciate the emphasis on family, friends, and the sweet depiction of the reason for the season—Jesus’ birth!

Anne Vittur Kennedy has been delighting young children with her humorous and playful books for thirty years. Her awards include American Library Association’s Notable Books List, Teacher’s Choice, The Green Earth Book Award, and The Green Prize for Sustainable Literature.

What I really like about this board book is the size. It's big enough to really see the story well and yet still small enough for your little one to help hold too. This is one book I know I will enjoy sharing with the little ones in my life.

You can find One Christmas Bear at many local retailers and online at Amazon and Christian Book Distributors.

KABRITA Offers A Safe Alternative To Cow's Milk Formulas

As a mom, I remember trying to find all the right things for my kids. Sometimes it wasn't easy, and it can even get harder if your child has a sensitivity or an allergy. The only time I had trouble was after breast feeding my kids. They weren't ready for whole milk, and it was hard to find what they needed.

One thing I know that a lot of moms are finding that works for their toddlers and I wish I had available for my kids when they were little is KABRITA Goat Milk Toddler Formula. It is formulated for toddlers from 12-24 months.

Here's a little info from Kabrita about it:

~ Naturally easy to digest, premium non-GMO goat milk formula
~ May be a good solution for children with cow milk sensitivity (*not for a confirmed cow milk protein allergy). Cow milk sensitivity may cause symptoms such as colic, constipation and eczema
~ KABRITA Goat Milk Formula has a mild, sweet and fresh taste and smell. A safe, effective and nutritious alternative to homemade goat milk formula recipes
~ Nutritionally enriched goat milk formula with 22 vitamins and minerals including folic acid, DHA, ARA, and iron
~ Our playful, happy goats are raised on family farms and graze on fresh grasses
~ KABRITA formula has not been exposed to antibiotics, growth hormones or pesticides. Free from preservatives, artificial colors and flavors

Now I know some of you are thinking that there is no way you would give your child goat milk because it is just weird. Believe me, it's not. People have been drinking goat's milk for thousands of years and it's pretty good. There is a natural sweetness to it. But the best thing is how easy goat's milk is on your tummy and your digestive system. It is closer to human breast milk than any other milk and far more than cow's milk. That makes it a much better transition for your little ones when they are weaned.

But KABRITA doesn't just offer formula for your toddler. They also have amazing yogurt. I can't begin to tell how good their yogurts are. Their yogurt comes in three flavors, Mango Peach, Mixed berry, and Banana & Natural Vanilla Bean. All three are made with whole goat's milk and the flavors are fantastic. I tried these out myself and can tell you, they not only filled me up, but I noticed a difference in how my stomach felt after eating them. With yogurt made from cow's milk, I sometimes have tummy troubles. I think I may switch to goat's milk yogurt permanently.

KABRITA offers an alternative that is not only very good for your growing toddler, but also affordable, and especially when you consider the health benefits for your child.

You can learn more about KABRITA on their website or connect with them on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, or Instagram.
