Today's review is an e-book from The Old Schoolhouse called Travel Kits: A Simple Way to Bless Others.
This was a fun review that I found perfect for summer time weather! In this e-book you will find lots of ideas for putting together travel kits for your family or as a gift to other families. The book starts out describing kits you can assemble as a way to make car trips more fun for families who have to travel whether it be a 1 hour trip or a 14 hour trip. A long trip in a car with an unhappy 2 year old can be a nightmare! And buckets can come in handy sometimes - don't ask me how I know!!
As I continued to read I was thinking this really doesn't apply to our family that much. We don't travel a lot as a family. All of our families live pretty close by. My kids are way past the toddler stage. And then I kept on reading and discovered that the ideas in this e-book go well beyond that of a traveling family.
The ideas you will find can be tweaked to fill a basket, bucket, bag or any item to bless a family in almost any situation! You could make kits for new college students, kids going away to camp, missionary families, your pastor's family during vacation, a simple trip to the dentist, a soccer game, etc. The possibilities are really endless!
Inside the e-book is loaded with what you can put inside your travel kits.
Some of the categories include...
- gifts for girls
- gifts for boys
- cheap gifts
- pricey gifts
- homemade gifts
- books including a reading list that I think would be great for homeschool literature list and it is even broken down by age =)
- custom gifts
- gifts for mom
- gifts for dad
- different ways to wrap the gifts
- different container options to present the gifts
- and lots more!
I am going to print this out as a manual to go on our bookshelf because it is loaded with ideas that I could use as a resource in our home.
This would be great to use as a ministry for our homeschool too. There is nothing more educational than sharing the love of Jesus with others!
Pros for me (since I didn't get my children's input on this one)
- great details with lots of ideas
- simple read
- literature list
- based on Christian principles - Luke 6:31
Cons for me (since I didn't get my children's input on this one)
- price is a little too much for our family
