Marathon Momma Monday

Marathon Momma Mondays Badge

Marathon Momma Monday is all about helping moms everywhere.  Each week, we will be highlighting something to make your life, family, faith, or fitness better. Something that will encourage you to Maximize Mommyhood and help you to achieve the balance that you need in life.

Our children are growing up in a world where they are bombarded by messages daily. TV, social media, friends/teachers at school, and devices. What are the messages that your children are receiving?  Have you taken the time to step back and notice?  

What is your strategy to combat the negative/wrong messages your kids receive every day?

As mothers, it is important that we safeguard our homes from the messages that will not bear good fruit. However, we cannot control our children’s environment every second of every day.  That is why it is important to play good offense.  We need to continually fill the minds of our children with little nuggets of wisdom, strength of character, and eternal good, right, and true messages.  This is the only way to help our children succeed in this world of information and technology.

Motherhood means building the next generation.  Take a minute to evaluate your life with your children.  In what ways are you building your children?  In what ways are you tearing them down?  It’s never too late to re-evaluate and change!

As a family we study the scriptures together daily.  It is not always what I would call a success. It is often a struggle to get their attention, and though we don’t take more than 5-10 minutes, I often find myself hoping that they got something out of it.  But I KNOW they are getting a lot out of {THIS} product:

scripture scouts

My kids have been listening to Scripture Scouts since they were born.  They know scripture stories better than I do!

For a description of the Scripture Scouts and an audio clip, CLICK {HERE}:

Scripture Scouts2

My kids learn about Jesus Christ’s life, teachings, and all kinds of scripture stories. You can buy each separately:

The New Testament

The Old Testament

The Book of Mormon

The Proclamation to the Family (about the importance of families)

Lessons are woven into each learning experience with songs that are way too fun and catchy to forget! Basically, my kids have so much fun listening to these CDs and they have no idea that they are being taught and schooled to choose the right at the same time! We love to listen to in the car, or most of all when the kids are going to bed.  I have had many people come up to me at church and tell me the wonderful insights my kids said in Sunday school… My husband and I can take some of the credit but we are so grateful for Scripture Scouts for making up for where we lack.

So HAPPY MONDAY!

XOXO Laura
