NEW! Recommended Resources Page

We are pleased to announce that after being “under construction” for several months, our Recommended Resources Page is here! We hope that this will be a helpful page for you, as it lists many of the books and movies we’ve reviewed here on the blog as well as other favorites. We will most likely be adding to this page over time, but here is what it currently looks like:

Recommended Resources Page

Welcome to our Recommended Resources page! Here is an index of our recommended books, family attractions, music, movies, and websites. We hope that they will be helpful to you, but please remember to use discretion. We do not agree with everything on/in our recommended sources, but have generally found them useful. We also recommend that parents use their judgment on age recommendations!

If you have any resources that you have found helpful and would like to share, please contact us via email or leave a comment!
