The Story Box Review

-
This trip we made to Charlotte was a good one, we got to see family members we hadn't seen in over three years, and my mom got to go there too. She was able to spend my birthday with me and visit a new city.

Another good thing about being there was that I was able to receive the December box from a new company run by Holly and her husband Clint, called The Story Box. I was introduced to it thanks to Allison from Because I Said So.

What is The Story Box?

If you love reading and want to pass it on to your children, you will love The Story Box. It is a subscription box that delivers quality children's books to your house once a month. Mine was sent out on Dec 21 and I received it on the 28th, it was kind of like a birthday present, but focused more on Avi.

Their boxes are appropriate for children ranging in age from 1-year old to about 7-years old. Everyone gets the same box. However, the first box a customer gets will include a special guide that discusses how to use the same book with kids of various ages (It's broken down into age groups: babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and early elementary).

The Books

In my box I received Boa's bad birthday and Jackhammer Sam.

 Boa's Bad Birthday has a repetitive pattern in it's story; every character brings a different gift with a problem and as they put in the parent guide this book helps "facilitate prediction skills."

 Jackhammer Sam talks about what construction workers do in a fun way-while rhyming! Which is something I really like to read.

 Both of these books are great for us, as Avi can already detect certain words, and they helped us practice. I'm excited for her to start reading on her own!

Their prices range between $19.99 and $21.99 per month with free shipping. Renews monthly automatically & you can even purchase a story box box as a gift!

     Hi Everyone! it's been a while since i posted anything to my blog, and i opened blogger today and found a couple of drafts, this one I had done as a guest post on a friends blog and figured I'd post it here to! Have you been following along on instagram? I post on my stories almost daily and it's so much fun for me!    List the top 5 cities you've visited and why. I've already done a post on this, 5 Places I'd like to revisit go check it out and tell me if we have any cities in common! What do you like doing in your spare time? I enjoy spending time on the computer and watching stuff on Netflix. when I have time I like challenging myself to do puzzles. What are you reading? I just finished reading Accidental Tourist and am currently reading The Girl on the Train. What is your favorite food to cook?

From Cologne to Boston

I read Rachel's post: liveblogging  a 12 hour flight to Bangkok and loved it.. granted not every flight is a good one but I figured I'd give this a go and try doing a similar post. I decided to record happenings on my most recent flight, even thought it was less than eight hours it seemed to go okayish and so i'm sharing it with you today. Here's how my flight went down: Before the flight, we were kind of worried about not having any in-flight entertainment since we booked our transatlantic flight with eurowings. 13:03 Board the plane. We get happy the plane does have in flight entertainment. We also noticed that every seat has a water bottle. Sadly only the ones with extra leg room get a blanket/pillow. 13:17  Find out the in flight entertainment requires a 9,99€ payment. 13:44  Time for the safety procedure demo. 13:53  Prepare for take off, then eventually take off. 13:56  Kid behind me says: "guck mal da unten die kleinen Autos." ...

I know I haven't posted anything in a while but I felt like I needed some time off. Lately I haven't had much free time, yet I haven't done much. Allow me to take you back and tell you what happened these past few months.. In July we took a trip to attend a conference in Boston and then stayed an extra week to visit the big apple. I loved getting to revisit this city and got to knock a lot of items of my NYC bucket list. Once we got back from our trip, Avi went back to her last week of school, and my cousin came to visit.. but I kinda screwed up and Avi ended up missing the last day of school (we took a day trip to Berlin instead). We had all of August free, and we took advantage of this (and a wedding in our hometown) and went to visit our family in Mexico. We had a packed two weeks in Mexico, during which we were able to catch up with a lot of friends, visit the BBVA Stadium and  Avi took an intensive swim course, she was able to get the basic done, but she...
