Educational

Right now,  Amazon has dropped the price on the Leapfrog Explorer Handheld Game System.  It is on sale for $49.50 (reg.$69.99.) We love this handheld unit, very durable and very educational.  It is priced at $59.97  at Walmart, and this is about the best price that I have seen. If you have a birthday coming up for one of your kiddos, this might be a fun sale to take advantage of. This is also a great idea to keep in the car … we use ours on roadtrips and I love that they are entertained AND learning something!

Thanks Penny Pinchin’ Mom!

 I started this blog 3 years ago, with the hopes that not only would it grow, but it would grow enough to give back… so I am so excited to share this next post with you:

SheSaved recently had the opportunity to sponsor over 80 first graders to attend the Meridian High School FFA Ag Expo. As you are probably aware… school budgets are tight, and when budgets are tight, little extras like this get “cut” from budgets.  Boise-based Agri Beef Co. paid the transportation costs associated with bringing 150 classes to the event….but our state is no longer reimbursing the cost of field trips because of budget constraints, so a field trip can easily zap what small funds our classrooms have for extras like this.  I have to tell you … I jumped on this opportunity for SheSaved to help,  because not only is agriculture  (education) something very near and dear to my heart, but it is also something that I so badly want our future generations to understand. Where does food come from? Are there careen options in Agriculture? What are they? It’s really just as simple as this: No Farms. No Food. But beyond that, there are so many aspects to Agriculture that many people are unaware of, including so many career opportunities!

So… the reason that I share this with you, is also as a thank you… to you, my readers!!  Without all of you, SheSaved would not have been able to donate the funds for  this “eager to learn” group of first graders to attend this awesome event! (and … by sponsoring this event, they also have enough funds to take additional field trips this year!)

This was a 3 day event that included 29 different hands on educational booths all aimed at educating local first, second and third graders about agriculture and natural resources. Take a look at some of the exciting things that we learned and got to see … Here is a great video highlighting this event, I hope you will take just a minute to check it out:

….and a big thanks to the Meridian (Idaho) FFA Chapter for putting on such a wonderful expo!

…I have shared with you before how much my family enjoys Big Fish Games online... and I have shared a few of their deals (and I know that some of you love them!) so I was really excited to get the heads up from my friends at Big Fish, that for this weekend only, you can get and game for only $4.99 !! Just use coupon code: TOPSECRET at checkout! (you can use this code as many times as you like!)

(Big Fish games are downloads that you put right on to your computer, and the same games are also sold in CD format, so if you want, you can check out some of the Big Fish Games on Amazon to see what a great deal this really is!)

Some of our favorite games include: I Spy Fun House…. so much fun “hunting” for objects, earning tickets to unlock more games … so addictive! We have a blast playing as a family!

Dora Saves the Snow Princess … even my son likes this one, so much more of an adventure than a “chic” game. Zhu Zhu Pets (my kids love to play this one together) …and there are so many more.

They don’t do this very often, and this code expires August 14th…so if you have been thinking about trying this out … this would be a great time! I usually grab a game when they throw out a deal like this because the game is yours to keep forever (and you can even access it on different computers) … and these are such great clean, fun and even educational games! We love this deal because even though I bought the games here at home, when we travel, I can access them on my laptop for the kids to play, and for most of them, you DON’T need the internet to play them once they are on your computer!! I love that they are family friendly games, and educational too … and of course, lots of fun ;)

Just go HERE to check it all out! *Also… you can use this code several times… I am going to let my kids pick a couple games for an upcoming trip!
