written by
Victoria Marcos

My Favorite Animal: Dogs written by Victoria Marcos is a cute book with vivid pictures that you or your child can read and learn about dogs. The book also has areas where it  asks questions and you have to guess, and wait till the end to learn if you are right. 

A great way to learn about animals for both children and adults. Great for striking up a conversation with your child, while learning in a fun way. 

You can purchase My Favorite Animal: Dogs on Amazon.

Animal Family Portraits Review


MarksvilleandMe reviews Animal Family Portraits
written by
Becky Lam
Animal Family Portraits written by Becky Lam is a simple book with pictures of animals, that you would probably never see in a photo together. Also great for children to learn new names for animals they may not know. 

Animals are fun for just about anyone, with children being one of their biggest fans. My grand daughter loves to look at the pictures and for me to repeat the names of the animals she doesn't know while she points at them. When she comes to one she know she yells out the name or when she remembers a new name on her own she yells that out too. She gets so excited. Would love to see more pictures of more animals.

Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush Review


The Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush is my new favorite kitchen gadget. Anyone who knows me knows I love kitchen gadgets. Right now the Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush comes in Green as above and Yellow which you can see below. We ordered the yellow.

The Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush is easy to fill, use, and wash when you are all done. I like that my children can help sauce our meat or even oil our baking pans for a treat. You can also use the spout to pour oil in your pans. I want to get a second one to have for my olive oil this would be very useful in our home. 

I would like to see the Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush made in red as well. I am really excited about this company and their products they are all awesome. I can not wait to see what they come up with next. 


Check out how easy it is to use below.




What Beesili has to say about their product 

If you cook at home and want to save money, time, health and the environment you will love this product. Drizzle oil from the bottle sparingly, turn over and use the  convenient built in brush to baste and spread the liquid. 

You can purchase the Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush  on Beesili or on Amazon.

" You're acting like a kitten"

I am sitting just relaxing while watching my daughter playing, She asks me what she is doing and I reply " You're acting like a kitten". She says how did you know. Now to answer her I tell her brother used to do it when he was little but most of the time he was a puppy instead of a kitten. 

Actually thinking back I am pretty sure all 6 of my children pretended to be animals of some sort. My children have always had big creative imaginations and no problem keeping themselves occupied. 




I gave my camera to my older daughter for Christmas and I haven't gotten around to ordering a new one for myself yet. So bear with the not so clear pictures for a while. Here are some pictures taken with my iPad mini of Dorothy pretending to be a kitten.


What animals do your children like to act like?
