LiteracyWelcome to my podcast! I started this show in an effort to educate the public about the importance of literacy, especially when we have kids to look out for! I reference my time as an elementary schoolteacher & tutor + my current experience as a children's author & mama of 2 littles to address the biggest literacy issues facing us today. |

You will love the season 2 opener, with author & mama Brooke Romney. She has such great life advice, & you will feel loved & understood as you listen to her speak--- I promise. She taught me so much about learning to embrace & love myself so that I can love others & be a better version (not a perfect version) of myself. Check out her book, I Like Me Anyway on Amazon or at your local Costco in Utah, Arizona, & Idaho! www.amazon.com/Like-Anyway-Embracing-Imperfection-Connection/dp/1735854409/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= Also, I wanted to let you know I have a new cruelty free, make-up company you've just got to check out this season!

 As always, my weekly updates to podcasts & show notes can be found at: for-the-love-of-literacy.mailchimpsites.com/ But here are a few of the recent episodes that have aired that I think you'll enjoy! Tune in when you get a chance! :)  Carrie's books are: Flying Flamingo Sisters (ranked #1 for best audiobooks for road trips with kids) & Horse Girl.
www.amazon.com/The-Flying-Flamingo-Sisters-audiobook/dp/B07ZRYNC2S/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=flying+flamingo&qid=1621467325&sr=8-1 Since the writing process governs much of my life these days, I thought I'd spend a brief episode discussing it, & explaining why everyone needs to be somewhat familiar with it too! The writing process is simple but effective enough when all the steps are honored. I also had the opportunity to interview one of the youngest authors I've ever learned of, Miss Holly Marshall! She & I had a fascinating conversation about her creative & imaginative side & how she's written a chapter book (soon to become a series) with her mom!    Don't pass up this amazing sale going on at MEL Science right now. They are sending you a $0.99 box if you subscribe to a monthly plan. This is seriously a *HOT DEAL* & it ends on February 28th! Don't forget that you can use my code KATIE25 on any of their science kits (MEL Kids, Chemistry, or Physics) & get 25% off after that. MEL Science has provided the mostly screen-free entertainment & problem-solving I hoped for! And we do the AR & 3D lessons on my phone together. My son loved learning about friction this month after we built his spring car.

for-the-love-of-literacy.mailchimpsites.com/  Had to share this fun crystal screen experiment my son & I did this week from MEL Science. It's a box a little bit like the one in the picture below-- doesn't that look like an awesome invitation to learn (screen-free) & explore?
