15 Books About Ninjas

I have three boys and we have read a lot of books about ninjas.  Once they all started taking karate the talk of ninja's just increased and we had to really start looking around for more books, movies and activities to go along with their latest passion.



In no particular order these are 15 of our favorite books about ninjas.


1. Diary of a 6th Grade Ninja:  The whole series was read by my middle son who just devoured these books.
Diary of a 6th Grade Ninja (a hilarious adventure for children ages 9-12) by [Emerson, Marcus, Hunter, Sal, Child, Noah]







5. Lego Ninjago #1: Way of the Ninja:  My youngest son loves any of the Ninjago books. 

LEGO Ninjago Reader #1: Way of the Ninja by [Farshtey, Greg]


Fly Guy's Ninja Christmas (Fly Guy #16) by [Arnold, Tedd]


The Ninjabread Man by [Leigh, C. J.]


Hensel and Gretel: Ninja Chicks by [Schwartz, Corey Rosen, Gomez, Rebecca J.]

9. Ninja

Ninja! by [Chung, Arree]




12. Ninja Dad-- Again my middle son reads any and all Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle books that he can find. 


13. Wink: The Ninja Who Wanted to be Noticed -- we were thrilled to learn that this book had more than one in it's series.

      Ninja! by Arree Chung; lots of colorful pictures paired with a shorter and silly story about a boy being a ninja in his own house.

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mainly through

Dollar Store Candy Cane Wreath

Today I am linking up with some fellow bloggers for a Dollar Store craft challenge.  I don't often participate in these challenges since I try to stay away from our local Dollar Stores; I find they can be quite dangerous for me!  I knew this was the perfect time to find some inexpensive holiday decorations though and I just LOVE how my wreath turned out!  I hope you stop by and see what the other hosts are sharing. Meet this month's co-hosts! Across the Blvd | Purple Hues & Me This Autoimmune Life | Our Unschooling Journey Domestic Deadline | Sew Crafty Crochet Stone Cottage Adventures | Sum of Their Stories | Two Chicks & a Mom I bought the candy cane wreath base and a few rolls of mesh (not knowing how many I'd need I bought waaay to many; I only ended up using one white roll and one red roll. Using some chenille stems I already had on hand I attached the mesh to the wreath base trying to alternate the white

Things That Make Me Laugh

I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my boys were youn
