If
 you are looking for a great educational-game gift for your kids 
(Preschool through about 2nd grade) check out Mathtacular. For $39.99 
this is a real deal. This has a DVD, tons of manipulatives and lots of 
great instructions so that Math will be fun for your kids. Also, you can get free 
shipping if you pick the Media Mail option.
 If you do order. PLEASE put 
my name -"SL Consultant Jill E"- in the comment section. I am a Sonlight Consultant and that will
 make it clear that I tipped you off to this good deal. NOT just for 
homeschoolers. Seriously, this is a great deal and the kids in your life
 will love Mathtacular. 
This is packaged in a game--a great gift for under the tree this Christmas.
Also, if you are looking for great books to read aloud to your children may I recommend a couple to you? 
The Great and Terrible Quest--This is my favorite book of all time. If you would like to know why I love it so much you can go here.
 
Little Britches
 is another family favorite.  You can't go wrong reading this 
autobiography. Delightful for parents and adults. A couple of "cowboy 
swear words" which you can read right over if you are reading aloud.
 
If
 you would like other recommendations, let me know. I would love to 
recommend a book or two for you to read aloud to your family.  
Take care,
Jill
