This blog is where I'll be posting some stories about my life as well as other random posts. The purpose of the blog is for people to get to know me and hopefully some times people will laugh at what I post. :-)
How is it November already? This month I am participating in a challenge I have done before called 30 Days of Thankful! Basically, each day you discuss something else that you are thankful for having in your life! We should do this more often than around Thanksgiving, but this month is definitely the perfect month to take advantage and be thankful! To start the challenge off, I am thankful for my life! If I wasn't here living, I wouldn't be anything. I am thankful to be here and able to LIVE! I am thankful I can share myself with you guys, my readers, and my followers! I do appreciate ALL of you! We truly have to be thankful for the little things in life and this is a fundamental part of life, just LIVING! Feel free to join me in this challenge! Thanks for reading!
Ideas for Teaching about Bats, Cats, Spiders, and Owls to young children:
Teach 1 year olds vocabulary recognition with pictures
Teach 2 year olds basic ideas like a spider has 8 legs and owls and bats are awake at night
Teach older children 3+ about the habitats and what the animals eat
Teach all children old enough to understand how these animals can help us and appreciation for nature
Have the children tell you what they know about these animals and go from there
Find cute crafts on Pinterest and other sources with a simple internet search
The older the child the more in depth you can go with your lessons
I currently teach Kindergarten and we were able to talk about habitats and what the animals ate as well as the idea that bats and owls are nocturnal meaning they are awake at night and sleep during the day. We also talked about how bats are similar to humans and how they help humans. We discussed how Spiders are in their own bug family, the arachnids and are not insects. We learned the Spanish words for Owl, Spider, and Cat
The fun thing about these lessons is to make it your own for the child or children you are working with. Doing a simple internet search will give you lots of resources and ideas!
So I am totally in love with this skin care regimen. When I started it I had some redness to my skin and after just a few weeks! Since switching to the Avon Elements products my skin has totally cleared up and changed. It could partially be due to getting older but I have definitely noticed a difference since regularly using skin care products beyond the Avon Clearskin line that I was also satisfied with and used regularly. The other great thing about the Avon Elements products is the price point with the regular prices being $8.99-$12.99! You cannot beat those prices!
I started with the Day Cream and that is the product I have used most consistently over the past couple months.
Avon Elements Skin Revitalize Instant Radiance Lotion (Day Cream) $10.99
This is the product I started with because I needed to have a Day Cream and I wanted one that had SPF in it. This product has SPF 20. I love the built in sun protection because it takes out a step of having to add sunscreen in addition to your skin care regimen. I was super excited when after just a couple of weeks I noticed a difference in the brightness of my skin. I also like how lightly the lotion goes on and that it includes a slight neutral tint so no need for extra foundation or powder. This product uses an Aronia Berry Complex. Full ingredients are listed on your Avon Representative's website.
Avon Elements Skin Revitalize 2-in-1 Brightening Eye Roller $12.99
The Eye Roller really impressed me. I saw an immediate result after applying the eye roller and with consistent use I saw better results. I will be honest I still have not used it both day and night myself but I was happy with my results so I can't imagine the difference it would have made had I used it day and night! This is a perfect compliment to this skin care regimen. If you are looking for another full eye cream and not just an under eye cream Avon has many eye cream options to purchase depending on your concerns! This product uses the Aronia Berry Complex as well as Optics Pearl Technology. For full ingredients check out your representative's website!
Avon Elements Skin Revitalize Night Radiance Cream $10.99
I'll admit I haven't used the night cream as much but I have noticed an added improvement when I used it consistently over a week. The night cream is meant to have you have a healthy glow when you wake up. The night cream is a moisturizer and if you are allergic to SPF it could be used as a day cream as well. The night cream also uses the Aronia Berry Complex. Personally, I enjoyed the moisture that was put into my face and how soft my face felt when I woke up in the morning. The full ingredient list is available on our representative websites.

Last year during the month of October I went from 13, 589 hearts to 37, 245 hearts and gained 42 followers during the Periscope PeriGirls Scopetober Challenge! In one year I have gained over 1.5 million hearts and am now up to 771 followers. Wow!
My goal for this month October 2016 is to gain at least 50 followers and 50,000 hearts. I say at least because I would LOVE to surpass that goal! My Periscope is @amandabeautytip. I scope on a variety of topics to make a difference in the lives of others by teaching you what I know and sharing with you what I love. Cannot wait to see what this month brings!
I'll be honest when I first saw this book was coming out, I wasn't too sure I wanted to purchase it. Then, it came up that it would be the Book Club selection for the Periscope PeriGirls group. I wanted to be on the panel for the Book Club discussion so I did go out and purchase the book. I read it in THREE days. Yes THREE days. It could have been quicker if I had just sat and read but I had other stuff going on that weekend. lol. I LOVED it! As a die hard Harry Potter fan I truly did appreciate the characters coming back and seeing the next generation. Now of course everyone will have their differing opinions but for whatever my opinion counts, I LOVED it! I don't want to post any spoilers so without giving much detail it was definitely an interesting story and definitely pulls you in like the main series did. You can get past the script format fairly easily. I am a theatre person so maybe it didn't bother me as much as it may bother others but I was able to get past it very quickly! The book picks up from where the final Harry Potter book left off and goes from there. In the book you meet the core groups children and some interesting relationships are formed. Definitely an awesome read. Without spoilers, you'll just have to trust me.
For the month of August, the Periscope PeriGirls challenged us to be our Olympic Best in honor of the Summer 2016 Olympics in Rio. During this challenge we talked about the Olympics themselves and what we enjoy about them, an Olympic event we would like to see, how to be our own Olympic Best, and Two Year goals. The specific topics were as follows:
Do You Watch the Olympics?
Olympic Events and What Event Would You Create
What does being your Olympic Best Mean to You?
How do you stay your Olympic Best Mentally?
Best Gold Medal Event
Who would you give a Gold Medal to?
Two Year Goals
Here is a playlist on my YouTube channel of the videos I did for this challenge with all of my answers. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
