Some ideas I am loving this week from friends in the eh community..


The Marble Jar – pop a marble in the jar for every positive behavior or action you wish to encourage.. in our fam this round it is going to be for kind actions and good manners. (Not just for the kids!) When the jar is full you celebrate with the previously agreed on activity together eg. Go to the movies.
Thanks to the Colston fam for this fun.
Picture Prayer Diary – Create a prayer diary where you draw your prayers to Jesus.  We draw three things.
1. Something we want to tell Jesus about our day.
2. Something we want to thank Jesus for.
3. Someone we want to pray for.
Thanks to the Coyles for this one. Ezra drew a car one night and they were given one the next day!
Letter Writing Night – After dinner everyone gets letter writing stuff and stamps around the dining table and writes a letter to someone.
This is a cosy social event with Michaela’s family.
Tea leaves and Beer dregs – Did you know that indoor plants love the rinsings from your empty beer bottles and cans?
Citrus trees and geraniums love your tea leaves.
Thanks to the Woods’ Companion Planting Book.
