{{Book Review}} In This House, We Will Giggle


What do indoor picnics and funny face contests have to do with loving Jesus?
More than you realize!
 
As a mom in the throes of parenting, Courtney DeFeo believes that instilling virtues in children starts with laughter, not lecture. That perspective propelled her to create this idea-packed book, in which she offers motivating reflections, real-life stories, and a sandbox full of inventive ways to help you turn your kids’ hearts toward God. 
 
Each chapter focuses on one virtue that is key for developing your child’s character. Along with insights into how this virtue plays out in the nitty-gritty of life, Courtney includes a memory verse, activity ideas, and discussion questions to reinforce that virtue throughout the month. Here you’ll find a full year of ways to draw your children closer to God through delightful antics like Family Olympics, One Fancy Feast, and Light ’Em Up.
 
In This House, We Will Giggle shows you how to capture the hearts of your children through fun—so that they experience the goodness of Christ, the joy of following Him, and the difference they can make in the lives of others. (Water balloons not included!) 

*My Review*
When I saw this book available for request, I just had to get it! This is a Christain based book that goes into detail about the twelve different virtues that we should teach our children. It goes on to give activities as well. My
two older daughter and I laughed so much as we have been reading through this book. 

The twelve virtues are; Joy, Love, forgiveness, faith, patience, perseverance, respect, responsibility, service, humility, gratitude, and generosity. 

These are all virtues that I want to until teach my children. Each virtue has its own section to talk about and catch phrases to enforce throughout the month. 

I absolutely love this little book and am so glad I had the pleasure of reading it. I recommend this book to all parents out there!!
