Laird Superfood Creamers + Get 20% Off! *

Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own.


Are you looking for a healthier alternative to creamer?

   Laird Superfood Creamers are made with simple ingredients, and are better for you than other creamers with a lot of sugars added in. This creamer has 4g or less of low-glycemic coconut sugar per serving and it's made with all-natural, whole food ingredients. It also contains Aquamin, which is a multi-mineral complex that is rich in calcium, magnesium, and 72 trace minerals. The creamer is vegan and Paleo friendly, also free of stevia, dairy, soy, gluten, and GMOs.


   I recently had the chance to test the Laird Superfood Creamers in original and cacao flavors. This is such a great product if you're looking for a healthier creamer. I like that you can have the option for a vanilla coconutty flavor and a chocolate coconutty flavor. They equally go great in hot drinks such as coffee, tea, or cocoa. 

 
   You add about a tbs to your hot drink and mix. The powder mixes well in hot liquids, especially when you use a power operated frother whisk. I added some of the creamer to my hot cocoa and it tasted delicious, like an Almond Joy Candy Bar, with a bit of cream. Definitely recommend! The creamer doesn't need refrigerated so you can travel easily with it and store it as you please. This is the perfect creamer for coconut lovers!

Swerve: The Ultimate Sugar Replacement

 Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own.


Getting my Swerve on with Swerve: The Ultimate Sugar Replacement! 


Swerve is an excellent substitute for sugar, as it is made through a unique process of taking the glucose from GMO-Free fruits and starchy root vegetables grown in the U.S. and France. They ferment that glucose with natural microorganisms brewed inside of brewery tanks, and this fermentation creates a compound called erythritol. Then enzymes are added which break down the starch in the root vegetables, creating oligosaccharides. Natural Citrus flavor is the last addition, making the complete product of: Swerve.

   Swerve is great for those with diabetes as it has zero calories and it's non-glycemic so it will have no effect on blood glucose or insulin levels. It also does not contain any artificial ingredients, preservatives or flavors. You can use this product just as you would sugar, it even browns and caramelizes right! Swerve comes in both granular and confectioner sweetener, and they also have different baking mixes! I made a Lemon Pudding Cake with a Lemon Swerve Glaze using Swerve's Confectioner Sweetener. I was amazed with how identical this stuff is to Powdered Sugar! It made the perfect frosting, but the taste is super sweet. I found it to be much sweeter than Powdered Sugar, and it has a cool sensation as well. I feel that less sweetener can be used, which is great because it will last longer but sweeten just as well. It worked great sprinkled across pancakes too!



Swerve is a fantastic sugar substitute that really brings a lot of flavor!

Splenda Naturals Sugar & Stevia Sweetener Blend

 Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own.


   Baking season is right around the corner which means lots of sweets will be consumed! But what if you could bake goodies with 50% less calories then usual? With Splenda Naturals Stevia Sweeteners you can enjoy sweets at a lighter balance with half the amount of calories that sugar contains. This sweetener is made with pure cane sugar and stevia leaf extract and contains non-GMO ingredients and no added flavor or colors. Every 1/2 teaspoon of this blend is the equivalent to one full teaspoon of traditional sugar, making it last longer as less is being used! Just think of all the goodies you can make with this!


   In the past, I have never been a huge Splenda fan because it always left a bad aftertaste. I was pleasantly surprised with the Splenda Naturals sweetener, as it tastes amazing and there wasn't any bitter result. This is from Splenda's specialized Reb D blend, much different from their original Reb A blend. You can truly taste the difference! I have made several treats using Splenda Naturals so far...some of those include Easy Sugar Cookies, Lemonade, Apple Tisane, and Cinnamon Cake. I have enjoyed every single recipes I've used this product in. I find the sweetener dissolves extremely well in liquids, and mixes perfectly in batter. And the only aftertaste I'm getting is the ultimate sweetness! I love that I can use less of this sweetener in all my recipes so it doesn't get used up so quickly. I can't wait to see all the sweets I come up with during the Holiday season!



You can find Splenda Naturals Sugar & Stevia Sweetener Blend available for purchase in stores near you including Walmart, Acme, Food Lion, and Weis Markets. Also be sure to visit splenda.com for more products and information, as well as recipes!

Lundberg Family Farms Grounded Snacks Tortilla Chips

Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own. 

   Do you enjoy snacking on chips but worry about the unhealthy factors of so many brands out there?
With Lundberg Family Farms Grounded Snacks Tortilla Chips, you can snack to your hearts desire and feel good about the healthy ingredients they contain. These chips are made with organic grains including Red Rice and Quinoa, and they come in five different flavors: Cinnamon Sugar, Ancho Chile, French  Onion, Aged White Cheddar, and Pink Himalayan Salt.


   Me and my family have thoroughly enjoyed trying Lundberg Family Farms Grounded Snacks Tortilla Chips, and love the healthy ingredients they contain. There is a favorite flavor for each of us, but we all enjoy the organic spices used to season up each chip! My top flavor of the chips were the Ancho Chile. These chips had a sweet yet spicy taste, but not too spicy to where it's overwhelming... They were perfectly seasoned! I thought I would like the Cinnamon Sugar chips most, but surprisingly they were my least favorite. Though they did have a delicious sweetness to them, I think I prefer the more savory route. I love that I can feel good about sharing these chips with my family. These products are USDA Certified Organic, made with only whole grains, they are gluten and allergen free, Non-GMO Project Verified, vegan, and kosher. They have become a new family favorite, my only complaint is the bags aren't filled very much. I would say, each bag was about less than halfway filled making them pretty pricey at $3.49 for a 5.5oz bag.

   I also had the opportunity to try two other Lundberg Family Farms products. The Organic Sprouted Brown Basmati Rice and the Organic Salted Rice Cakes. We eat rice for many of our dinners so this is nice to try out. And the rice cakes, my son just loves. I found they were a little too salty for me but they make great afternoon snacks for my son to enjoy. I'm sure I would love their other flavors!

   If you're looking for a new brand that has healthy options from meals to snacking to appetizers and baking, check out Lundberg Family Farms products. They have a variety of food items to try! You can find them in stores near you, as well as purchase them on Amazon and Thrive Markets. Be sure to visit them at lundberg.com as well as find them on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.

Sea-Band Mama! Acupressure Wrist Bands and More

Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own. 

Are you an expecting mama in need of some relief from nausea? With Sea-Band Mama, you can feel better in just a few simple steps. The Sea-Band wrist bands work to relieve nausea by applying pressure to the Nei Kuan acupressure points on both wrists. This relieves nausea symptoms related to morning sickness in an easy drug-free approach. You can pair these bands with the Sea-Band Mama Ginger Lozenges and the Sea-Band Mama Ginger and Spearmint Rollette.

The Sea-Band Mama Ginger Lozenges are formulated with Zingiber Officinale which contains the essential oils of gingerol and shogal. Ginger is a proven ingredient that helps heal the pain of upset stomachs by stimulating digestive juices in the stomach, neutralizing acids, and soothing any irritation you may be facing. To stack on the relief of nausea, you can use the Sea-Band Mama Ginger and Spearmint Rollette with a quick roll to the wrists, temples, and/or chest to help you feel calm and well. This rollette contains a handmade blend of natural essential oils including Lime, Spearmint, and Ginger that will help stimulate the mind and body, bringing you to a state of peace and relaxation. When you inhale the scent, the aroma sends signals to your bodies limbic system telling it to release natural chemicals your body makes to relieve your upset stomach. Mixing the three of these steps together will give you much relief from nausea and motion symptoms.

It's always interesting to me, to see how acupressure points and essential oils seem to help when your body is in a certain state of stress. I do not get motion sickness often, but when I do, I like to have Sea-Band products on hand. The wrist bands bring a small amount of relief when needed but I really like the lozenges most. I have found them to be most effective, and help my mouth feel refreshed in doing so. My husband tends to get motion sickness a lot, so having him try the Sea-Band version for adults has been a relieve in some ways. Sea-Band products are a great approach when you want something natural!

I love that Sea-Band not only has products for mamas, but also for other adults and even children! They come in multiple bands, gray for adults, pink for mama's and blue for kids, as well as other colors when available. This is a great way to relieve nausea from car rides, stomach flu, chemotherapy side effects, maybe even roller coaster rides?? Haha. I would definitely give them a shot for all your anti-nausea needs. You just might be surprised to see how they do for you!


You can find Sea-Band Mama! Acupressure Wrist Bands and other products available for purchase at your local CVS pharmacy,  Rite Aid, Walgreen's, Walmart, Target, and many other drug stores and pharmacies near you. You can visit sea-band.com for a list of locations, as well as read up on their products and information. Be sure to visit Sea-Band on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram as well!

SunButter Sunflower Butter - A Better Substitute To Peanuts


Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own.  


Did you know, with the rising peanut allergy in children, over 60% of schools no longer allow peanut ingredients in their classrooms? Companies are starting to catch on to this, and making delicious substitutes for those with peanut allergies to enjoy. SunButter is one of them!

SunButter is a natural and healthy nut butter made with U.S. grown roasted Sunflower Seeds. Every serving is chocked full of vitamins and holds 7 grams of protein. It is not only a great peanut butter substitute, but it is also vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, non-GMO, and certified kosher. SunButter is free from all of the top eight food allergens, so it is safe in schools.

I never thought I would love Sunflower Butter until I tried SunButter's Natural Crunch. It is truly delicious, with sunflower seed pieces throughout. The creamy is good too, but the crunchy is my favorite. It has a sweet taste and the texture is amazing to my taste buds. It is perfect on really anything, but even just a spoon full of this goodness makes me happy. SunButter also comes in Natural, No Sugar Added and Organic. You can find all these flavors available in the typical 16oz containers, but the creamy variety is available in On the go Cups with are 1.5 oz serving containers. Perfect for school lunches! 


You can use SunButter in place of any peanut butter product; use it on your sandwich, melt it on your pancakes, add it to your smoothie..maybe even bake cookies with it? This butter is delicious and you will feel content serving it to your family.


You can find SunButter available for purchase in most major retail stores including Target, Walmart, Kroger, Safeway, Publix, and Whole Foods. Also visit sunbutter.com for more information. Connect with them on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest as well.

Improve Your Gut Health with Restore + 20% Off

Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own.


Improve your gut health with Restore, a soil-derived mineral supplement made to fight everyday environmental and food-born factors while providing a good space for the healthy bacteria to flourish. Restore also helps protect your immune system and intestinal walls by nurturing membranes in the gut and blood/brain barrier to work correctly and keep our bodies healthy. It helps rid of the nasty items our insides contain such as junk from processed foods, GMO's, gluten, and herbicides, just to name a few. Restore will help destroy these chemicals and create a stable environment for our guts to give us a better well being.


I wasn't sure what to expect when I began using Restore. I liked the idea of ridding the toxins from my body and cleaning me out to be a healthier version of myself. Upon opening, I noticed that Restore doesn't really have a scent, though it is a yellow color, like that of apple juice. The taste is plain, but when I drank it at room temperature, the liquid made me want to gag lol, so I keep mine in the fridge, though this isn't required. I drink 1tsp at breakfast, lunch, and dinner and take it like a shot in a medicine cup. It's easy to do, but makes it more inconvenient than a pill you take once a day. For the first 3 days, I feel like I noticed a difference in my body, in that of being able to flow easier, which in turn, left me feeling lighter which I loved. But after that 3rd day, I haven't noticed a difference at all. I finished the entire bottle and am not sure if It did anything for me or if I should even notice any changes. It was nice to try and if it did indeed build up my guts for the better, then it was worth it. 

Included in the kit I received was the Restore Sinus Spray. It came at the perfect time, when my allergies were flared up and my nose was desperate for an itch relief. Within minutes of using the spray, my nose felt much more relieved! It helped sooth my nasal passage and clean it of any dust particles that may have been in there. I've only tested it one other time since then, because my allergies haven't been bothering me, but I will definitely be using it again! 

Trying Restore to improve your gut health might be a good option for you. You can get a 20% discount at restore4life.com/try-restore-today/ until July 16, 2017 if you use the code B7X66JY

Restore can be found available for purchase on their website (restore4life.com). in practitioner offices, health food stores, Amazon, and GNC stores nationwide. You can also find more information, pictures and more on their Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and Instagram

Baby Mum Mum Rice Rusks Great For Teething!

I received the following product(s) in exchange for my honest review. All opinions my own. 

 

Are your teething babies ready to enjoy a mid morning or afternoon snack?


 Baby Mum Mums has a delicious selection of easy to nibble teething rice biscuits. These biscuits are made of premium, gmo free, Japonica Rice, without gluten or dairy and excludes most common allergens including wheat, salt, nuts, eggs, tapioca, and sugars. These biscuits are made with natural products and do not contain any artificial ingredients or preservatives. They are baked to perfection and come ready to eat.


Baby Mum Mums are such a fun little treat to give your teething baby or toddler. I love how soft and edible these crackers are, and that they dissolve easily so your little one can munch on them with ease. There are a handful of great flavors to choose from for a nice variety in snacks, even older children and adults may find these tasty! I have tried each of the flavors: Vegetable, Blueberry & Goji, Sweet Potato & Carrot, Apple & Pumpkin, and Banana. My favorite ones have to be the more fruity kind, top being Banana and second favorite being the Blueberry & Goji. They have a nice natural fruitiness but not overly sweet and has the perfect hint on flavor.


These biscuits are great for a low sweetened healthier munchie and give the perfect introduction of your babies eating snack like foods. I think my only downfall with them is they break easily. Otherwise they are perfect little crackers to start your kids off on! 

    You can find Baby Mum Mum Rice Rusks in a variety of flavors, available in most grocery stores near you. You can also visit mummums.com to find more information and products. As well as find them on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.

Spaghetti Squash Casserole with #Bertolli Organic

I received the following product(s) in exchange for my honest review. All opinions my own. 
 
I love trying out new pasta sauces and Bertolli's Organic Pasta Sauce did not disappoint! It has a very authentic flavor, that is so smooth and delicious. It works well for many dishes such as casseroles, pastas, even on pizza. Bertolli's Organic has an excellent flavor and is made with wholesome and healthy ingredients. I made a Spaghetti Squash Casserole using Bertolli's Olive Oil, Basil, & Garlic Pasta Sauce. The casserole came out tasting delicious! Much like a healthier Lasagna with the right amount of cheese and the perfect touch of rich red sauce. 


Bertolli's Organic is a very flavorful sauce and truly does go with a lot of tasty dishes. You can find Bertolli Organic in local grocery stores around the world. I found several flavors in my local Target!

If You Care Cupcake Liners + Christmas Cupcake Decorating

 Disclaimer: I received a following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own. 


I had the opportunity to review and hold a cupcake decorating party for the If You Care Baking Cups. Despite the plain brown paper bag color, I love these liners as they do really well in baking cupcakes or muffins! 


 

 In making my cupcakes, the breading didn't stick to the paper when being pulled off. This is great because a lot of cheaper liner products tend to stick making a huge mess. These ones were great! They also don't have any papery smells, and leave your cupcakes tasting as they should.



 They are such a great product! I can't wait to try the liners in making meatballs. I want to test how grease-proof they are! I would love if they were available in different colors/designs, but otherwise, they are a great product to work with. 

Here are our beautiful Christmas cupcakes we made awhile back!
 So much fun!

Getting Gut Healthy With Dr. Ohhira's Probiotics

I received the following product(s) in exchange for my honest review. All opinions my own.


   Are you looking for an easy way to build your immune system while getting a healthier gut? DrOhhira's Probiotics are an all natural probiotic designed to support digestion, absorb nutrients, and give you a healthy immune system. These probiotics contain natural ingredients, that have never been grown in a lab, such as mountain spring water and fruits and vegetables that have been fermented for three years and have 12 probiotic strains. The nutrients taken from this fermentation process help encourage your body to grow its own friendly bacteria, to result in a healthier inside environment.

   I recently had the chance to try the Dr. Ohhira Probiotics Original Formula, as well as some other Ohhira products, and I love the naturalness of each of them. The probiotics in the original formula are made complete with live cultures and contain fermented fruits, vegetables, including mushroom and seaweed. This contains a full system of prebiotics, enzymes, micro-nutrients, and organic acids to promote a healthy digestive system with nutrient absorption, helping metabolism flow, and give off a better immune response. 

   Upon taking these probiotics, which you take 1 capsule twice a day, you may have minor temporary reactions to them, such as bloating or mild laxative or constipating effects. This happens because the beneficial bacteria is rebuilding the environment in your gut, by detoxifying your system, and your body acts in the way it will. Both me and my husband tried taking these probiotics, and both experienced uncomfortable bloating and constipation. Because of this downfall, neither of us want to continue this product, as we have had better results with other products. But remember, this differs per person, and might not have any effects on another! If you can handle these possible side effects, or look past them, Dr. Ohhira's Probiotics are a great set to try. Their natural ingredients make them better for taking, and they are also vegetarian friendly, as they contain no dairy, eggs, fish, crustaceans shellfish, tree nuts, wheat, peanuts or soybeans, though they do contain fermented soy. They are also gluten free, and non-gmo. These are one of the better probiotics out there and very popular among the world.
 
   Some other Dr. Ohhira products I received are the Dr. Ohhira Essential Living Oils, Propolis PLUS supplements, and the Probiotic Kampuku Beauty Bar. The Dr. Ohhira Essential Living Oils are a great alternative to fish oils, as these are vegan and contain 8 natural plant and seeds oils: Rice Bran, Borage Seed, Sunflower Seed, Avocado Oil, Flax Seed, Perilla Seed, Japanese Tea Seed, and Olive Oil. Each one extracted, prepared, and cold-pressed into a plant based healthy fat. This gives your body a balance of Linolenic Acids of Omega-3, Omega-6, and GLA, and Oleic Acid of Omega-9. Taking these pills on a daily basis will help your body maintain a healthy cell membrane function by letting in good nutrients and sending the wasteful ones out. It will also promote nervous system function, give off a healthy immune system response, help build hormones, and maintain a healthy cholesterol level when in normal range.

   The Dr. Ohhira Propolis PLUS supplements works as an immune supporting antioxidant that also help with digestive function. it contains Brazilian green propolis from honey bee hives, blended with Vitamin E and flax seed oil, making it a rich source of Omega-3 fatty acids, and prebiotic and probiotic strains with highly absorbent astaxanthin extracted from seaweed. These supplements are vegetarian certified and also help ease joints giving them comfort, help achieve cardiovascular wellness, and give an overall healthier nervous system.


   The Dr. Ohhira Probiotic Kampuku Beauty Bar was my favorite product so far. This bar contains 14 natural plant extracts mixed with coconut oil and Probiotic Extract made from seaweed and wild herbs that have been hand-harvested in the mountains of Chugoku district in Japan. This soap is filled with antimicrobial health benefits and contain no fragrances, stabilizers, deodorants, preservatives, chemicals or artificial colors. It helps nourish the skin while cleaning and moisturizing, leaving a soft afterglow. This soap is great for daily use and suitable for all skin types, even those with sensitive skin. I love how soft it leaves me skin feeling, and clean feeling it leaves me with.

   Dr. Ohhira has many products you could try. In fact for a limited time, you can get 20% off Dr. Ohhira's Original Formula Probiotics and get a free Kampuku Beauty Bar, as well as free shipping! This is a great opportunity to snag up! Click here and use the promo code: momj2017 to get your savings!

National Geographic Kids Super Readers Club

Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own.


On behalf of March being the National Reading Month, National Geographic Kids helps celebrate and promote the benefits of reading by providing colorful and informative children's books to enjoy!
I am a huge fan of National Geographic books that are filled with so many fun facts and stories. They are great go-to books to use in our homeschooling adventures! 

I love that National Geographic Kids has level reader books, so your child can grow with them based on their reading vocabulary. Each Super Reader book is rated starting with the Pre-Reader where your child is ready to begin learning how to read, to 1: starting to read, 2: Independent Reader, and up to 3, a Fluent Reader, making it fun and exciting ranking higher as they get better in reading. You and your child can visit natgeokids.com/superreaders to become an amazing Super Reader, (even download a certificate claiming so) enjoy some fun activities, and earn prizes as well! A great way to keep them interactive with their reading enjoyment. It's really great that every book has interesting facts your child can learn, as well as silly jokes to keep your kids interested and having fun. There are so many things to enjoy about Nat Geo books, truly something every age level can enjoy!

Below are just a few books National Geographic Kids offers per age level:
Hop, Bunny! as a Pre-Reader filled with easy to read words for your beginning reader, as well as vocabulary tree's to understand words better and a photo with each. This book is so cute, it would be a perfect addition to an upcoming children's Easter basket! :)

Follow Me! and Red Pandas are Level 1 Readers, which contain a little bit more words and sentences for your budding reader. There are also colorful boxes around each page, to help encourage your little ones to look around as they read and find new information to learn on. Lots of fun facts in these ones! 

They even have Spanish books, such as the Level 1 book: Los Dinosaurios. Great for bilingual children, or those learning Spanish as a second language. Very fun to go off of.

I didn't receive any Level 2 books, so on to Sacagawea and Mars for the Level 3 Reader books. These are perfect for your fluent reader, as there is a good amount of reading on each page, but still photos to keep your child interested, and little definition bubbles to teach your reader the meaning of bigger words used. There are even fun facts and silly jokes in this one.

I love all of these Level reader Books! The Animal Ark book makes a fun family reading time story. National Geographic Kids makes many many books your whole family can enjoy. The bright and colorful stories not only bring in facts and information, they also help build your child's imagination and future interest in reading. Paired with the Super Readers club, this is a great way to keep your child motivated in reading!




You can find more information on National Geographic Kids and their latest products by visiting them at natgeokids.com as well as finding them on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.

Happy Reading!!

Dr. Mercola Complete Probiotic Powder Packets

Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own.

  Taking Probiotics is a good way to enhance your health by giving your body healthy bacteria to keep your immune system up and remove toxins in the body. But sometimes taking a Probiotic daily, in the form of a pill, can be tiresome. With Dr. Mercola's Complete Probiotic Powder Packets, you can drink your probiotic daily, just by adding it to a bottle of water or juice!


Dr. Mercola's Complete Probiotic Powder Packets contain 10 strains of bacteria including super-strain lactobacillus acidophilus DDS-1, promoting an optimal environments for "gut-friendly" bacteria to grow in. These bacteria help support your immune system, keep blood pressure in the normal range, and help remove harmful toxins in the body. Dr. Mercola's has two different Complete Probiotic packs available, one for adults and one for children. The adult packs have 70 billion beneficial bacteria, while the children's has 10 million, in each serving. So you not only get a delicious drink, you also get a healthy dose of bacteria to clean your system. Each little packet is easy to take and make on the go. You just tear open the packet and pour the powder into your drink. Shake and it's ready to go!

Both my husband and son love taking Dr. Mercola's Complete Probiotic Powder Packets each day. When making the drink, I usually do all water or 3/4 water and 1/4 of some kind of juice. My son loves this beverage, drinking it daily with his breakfast. He even asks for it upon waking each morning! I love the fact that he's also getting extra water in without a problem! And because of its sweet organic raspberry flavor, it tastes like a juice in itself. The powder seems to mix well in water, although it leaves some powdery residue behind, but it's pretty much that way with most powder drinks. Because of that, I am one that prefers the chewable probiotics, but these are great for those who have a hard time swallowing pills.. Plus they are packed with such healthy bacteria that helps our bodies filter toxins. Definitely a product I recommend.

You find Dr. Mercola products available at shop.mercola.com where one box or Complete Probiotic Powder PAckets for adults retails for about $41.97 and for children, $29.97- 30 packs in a box. You can also find Mercola Products and information on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.

National Geographic's The Book of Heroes and The Book of Heroines

Disclaimer: I received the following product(s) in exchange for my review. All opinions my own.

   Did you know that National Geographic publishes more than 100 books a year and has more than 600 titles currently in print world wide? Many of their pieces are award winners and best sellers including the National Geographic Kids Almanac and the Weird But True series. These books are filled with informative facts, colorful graphics and beautiful photography to keep kids attention. One of National Geographic's missions is to inspire kids to learn, and empower them to make the world a better place.


   National Geographic recently published The Book of Heroes and The Book of Heroines, equally filled with the men and women hero's of our world. They focus on people such as Mother Teresa, Michael Jordan, Tina Fey, Galileo, Emma Watson, and so much more. Each book is filled with true stories of these amazing people. Whether it be a superstar, war hero, world leader, peacemaker, sports legend, ect., these people are widely admired for their accomplishments.


   Are there any heroes or heroines close to you in your own life? A hero can be anyone who you deem one; but every hero shares similar qualities. They are courageous, compassionate, competent, inspiring, they never quit, and they leap to take action. Allowing your children to learn about heroes and heroines around the world is a wonderful thing. It can teach them to be a hero in their own life, as well as see real life heroes all around them. In both of the National Geographic books, you and your children can read story after story of these amazing people who are real life hero's that walk the world around us.


The Book of Heroes and The Book of Heroines are available for purchase in many bookstores around the world for a retail price of $14.99. They are also available on Amazon in the links below:
