Bible Study Favorites
↑ Back to TopThese are some of my favorite resources for growing in your understanding of God's Word, developing better Bible study habits, and encouraging your family to spend more time in Scripture.
A great book for learning how to study the Bible! If you've ever wondered how to ask better questions as you read Scripture, this is a wonderful resource.
Another excellent book for learning how to study the Bible. I highly recommend this one for women who want to grow in their understanding of God's Word.
I've found that my kids pay attention better and grasp Scripture more easily when we're reading from a translation they can understand. I love the NLT as a read-aloud Bible! I purchased one of these for each of my kids so we can take turns reading aloud from the same translation.
The ESV is my personal favorite translation for studying God's Word. I love having a journaling Bible with plenty of room for taking notes as I study.
If you want to grow in your understanding of the Bible and the order of events, this is a wonderful Bible! It provides helpful context for each reading, and the best part is that it's not dated. You can read at your own pace without ever feeling behind.
This is such a beautiful Bible! It's in the CSB translation, which is my second favorite translation to read. It also includes sweet devotionals throughout. My only complaint is that the pages are thin, so I wouldn't recommend it if you love highlighting or writing in your Bible.
I love this Bible for anyone who needs help understanding how a passage applies to our lives today while keeping Scripture in its proper context. It's also an easy read because it uses the NLT translation!
Psalms Bible Study by Kristin Nave
Kristin is a friend of mine, and she does such a beautiful job helping women study the Psalms in a thoughtful and insightful way!
Such a cute bag for carrying your Bible and other essentials to church!
In Her Shoes, Walking Her Way, & Bible Study Notebook
These are three resources from my own shop that I love recommending to women who want to reignite their love for God's Word.
My hope is that these studies encourage women to grow in their relationship with Christ and transform their outlook as wives and moms in the process.
Homeschool Favorites
↑ Back to TopAfter years of homeschooling, I've found a handful of supplies that make our days easier, more organized, and a little more enjoyable.
Here are some of my favorites that you can hopefully find on a great deal this holiday season!
I love having an iPad for our homeschool! I originally purchased it to use with our All About Reading and All About Spelling programs. I wasn’t a fan of using the physical magnetic letter tiles, so I decided to get an iPad to use their app instead. It has been so much easier!
Recently, I’ve also started pairing our iPad with a Bluetooth keyboard so the kids can work on their typing lessons without taking over my laptop, which I need for work. It’s become such a useful tool in our homeschool!
Logitech Bluetooth Keyboard & Mouse
I grabbed this keyboard and mouse to pair with my iPad so the kids could work on their typing lessons without taking over my laptop. Such a practical addition to our homeschool!
These are my favorite everyday pens! You don't even need to wait until Black Friday because they're usually under $3.
For some reason, colorful pens make my kids so much more excited to write and do school! These are erasable, which means they can use pens for all their subjects without worrying about mistakes. I can also use them in my homeschool planner since I can erase with them. I enjoy them just as much! Great for a stocking stuffer.
These are wonderful for narration journals! The paper is thick enough for markers, paint, crayons, and just about anything else. We draw our own lines on the pages so the kids can write their narrations alongside their artwork.
I finally had to replace my Epson EcoTank after dealing with repeated issues of it going offline and refusing to reconnect to our network. Apparently, once it gets a specific error code on the screen, it is no longer usable—and that happened to me twice. Therefore, I decided to try the Canon MegaTank, and I love it!
It prints extremely fast, about twice as fast as my old EcoTank, and the print quality is great.
My only complaint is that colors tend to print a little darker than they appear on my screen. But overall, I'm really happy with it, especially because it's still so economical on ink! I'm most pleased with the speed of printing, plus I've had no connection issues so far this school year.
If you want to bind your own books or homeschool materials but don't want to store a big, clunky machine, the ProClick is perfect!
I've gone through several pencil sharpeners over the years, and this one is my favorite!
YWAM Christian Heroes: Then & Now Books
These are wonderful read-alouds that inspire our faith! We're currently reading about Hudson Taylor, but we also really enjoyed the story of George Müller.
I have a special offer for November and December! My followers can grab my custom collection of five Christian Heroes books for just $30 + FREE shipping!
This would make such a meaningful Christmas gift for a homeschool family.
Nations Candle by Until We're Home
This is a brand-new small business, and I love their heart and mission!
I especially love their candles that feature different continents and encourage you to pray for the people living there. I'm planning to incorporate one of these candles into our family read-aloud time as we work through the Christian Heroes: Then & Now books.
As we read stories about missionaries serving around the world, we can light the candle and spend time praying for specific countries and the people who live there. Such a meaningful way to connect our reading with prayer!
Co-op Day Favorites
↑ Back to TopIf you attend a homeschool co-op, you know how much stuff there is to haul around! These are a few things that have made our co-op days so much easier.
20 oz. ThermoFlask Food Containers (2-Pack)
I love the bright colors, and they keep our food hot! No more waiting in line for the microwave at co-op. I simply heat our food on the stove in the morning and store it in these containers until lunchtime. They are still piping hot by noon.
This makes hauling all my supplies to and from co-op so much easier! I like that I can keep everything store in this box for the whole week. I used to use a wagon before, but this is much more practical.
Storage Bins for My Utility Cart
I grabbed these bins because they fit perfectly inside my utility cart. They're great for organizing and storing all my tutor supplies.
You can never have too many tote bags as a homeschool mom! These are great for carrying books, supplies, and all the extras we seem to need.
Everyday Favorites
↑ Back to TopThese are some of my favorite finds for the home, kitchen, and everyday life. Some are practical, some are just fun, and a few would make wonderful gifts!
I wanted a watch that could count my steps without needing Bluetooth, and this one is perfect! It's functional and pretty, too.
My friend had these at her house, and I loved them so much that I ordered a set before I even finished drying her dishes. Haha!
It took me way too long to switch from those stretchy plastic workout bands that constantly slide up your legs to these thick fabric bands. They're SO much better!
White & Gold Nespresso Machine
We finally upgraded our Nespresso machine after dealing with one that had been leaking for years. I absolutely love the white and gold color of our new one!
If you're like me and prefer wired headphones over Bluetooth earbuds, you're probably tired of dealing with the tangled mess that they can become in your bag. I love these little silicone cases for keeping my headphones organized! Another great stocking stuffer!
Birkenstock Look-Alike Sandals
These are so comfortable! If you love the Birkenstock style but don't want to pay the price, these are a great alternative. I practically live in mine! They also come in little girl sizes so you can match your daughter!
I've been using Dazzle Dry for over three years, and it's still my favorite nail polish! It dries in about five minutes and lasts around a week on my nails. If you've never tried it, I recommend starting with a mini kit to test it out, but I promise you will want to order the full size because you will LOVE it!
This would make a wonderful gift for someone wanting to get started with sourdough!
I love the ambiance of a candle warmer without burning through my favorite candles. But I also recently discovered that you can use these for a few other things like warming up butter for baking (my husband's tip!).
If you're making sourdough, you'll definitely want a good Dutch oven! But they're also wonderful for soups, stews, and so many other meals. I recently upgraded to a 7.5-quart Dutch oven, and I love having the extra space.
Favorites for Kids
↑ Back to TopThese are some of the most-loved toys, games, and gifts in our home! I am recommending things we ACTUALLY use and not things that I have on my wish list. These have been some of our biggest hits.
I purchased this kitchen last year for my youngest, and it's been wonderful! I love the aesthetic of it, but also the functionality. The ice maker is so cute. If you have a little one who loves to play cooking, they'll love this!
My kids absolutely love these! They've become their favorite stuffed animals to sleep with, and it's so sweet. I love them so much that I've started buying them as gifts for my nieces and nephews, too!
GloriLight Scripture Nightlight
This is another item that has become a staple in my kids' rooms. I love that it displays Bible verses on their ceiling, giving them an opportunity to memorize Scripture and find comfort in God's Word as they fall asleep.
My kids love this game! It's a fun addition to our family game collection.
My kids use their Yoto players SO much! These were probably the best Christmas gifts I purchased for them two years ago. They continue to get used all the time! Helpful accessories to add with your mini purchase would be:
This could be a gift for the kids or for Mom! I was tired of losing all my cookie sheets to unfinished puzzles, so I finally invested in a puzzle board. It stores perfectly underneath our couch, and the kids can easily slide it out whenever they want to work on a puzzle. No more taking over the kitchen table or losing puzzle pieces!
I bought this last Christmas, and it has been one of the most-used gifts from the entire year! I bought one for each of my younger kids and I will buy another one this Christmas. The kids have played with it constantly, and it's lasted all year long.
This is our family's absolute favorite game! We actually call it Bump, but I believe it's also known as Aggravation. I especially love this board because it's double-sided, so you can flip it over depending on how many people are playing.
If your kids already have magnetic tiles, this is a fun way to encourage them to get creative and try building something new!
I buy Picasso Tiles because they're less expensive than some of the other magnetic tile brands, and they've worked just as well for our family! We have an entire tub of these, and they get used almost every single day. They're one of those toys that have truly been worth the investment!
A Few Final Thoughts
I hope this list gives you some helpful gift ideas for the people you love, or maybe even a few ideas for your own Christmas wish list!
I always enjoy sharing products that have genuinely made our family life, homeschool days, and time in God's Word a little sweeter.
And whenever possible, I especially love supporting small businesses that are creating thoughtful, meaningful products for families.
