As a parent I lack guidance. Daily I try to do it on my own before surrendering to God. Those times I take the day’s challenges into my own hands, things fall apart. It’s incredibly liberating being able to cast all my burdens on the Lord.

These scripture cards were made with my family in mind. From toddlers, to teens, to myself and my husband we have bible verses cards to encourage us all. Feel free to use my creation to also equip your family with the Word of God.

As we know from Hebrews, The word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword.

How do I make my own bible verse card?

It’s easy to make your own scripture cards. You can purchase 3×5 index cards and rotate memory verses out continuously. It’s really nice to index cards you have memorized in a index card container to create a scripture memory box. Alternatively, you can attach them to a keychain.

Of course, you could also download our bible verse cards. We put together some of the most encouraging bible verse cards for teens, parents, teachers, toddlers and kids. Cards are great for memorizing. By laminating these cards you can keep them protected for a long time and by attaching them to a keychain, you can easily flip through a new daily bible verse.

Attaching scripture cards on a keychain is a great way to give testimony to others. When your keys are visible, so is the word of God! It’s also a great way to memorize scripture or can be turned into a fun Sunday School craft for teen girls. I personally attach my keys to the outside of my purse using a Retractable Keychain.

Scripture Memory Card Craft

You can also turn your printable bible verses into a fun craft. This scripture memorization card craft is a creative, fun and beautiful way to memorize bible verses. Plus you can literally take the word of God anywhere you want. With your bible verses printable, a laminator, scissors, and a fun keychain, they’re so easy to make!

Family Traditions To Start Now!

Family traditions are important for creating family memories and solidifying family bonds and relationships. Take a look at this list of unique and traditional Family Traditions to Start Now!

Family Traditions

I was not raised in a big family. Obviously, with five kids, I have a big family now. As my family has grown, the amount we can do with extended family has decreased (if that makes sense.) In a more direct explanation, it is hard to fly seven people. When are are able to travel, not everyone wants to house a large group of people for holiday. While big and small holidays have become more and more about our immediate family, it has caused me to create our own NEW family traditions.

Have you ever sat and read the Family Tradition Hank Williams Jr. lyrics? Don’t. PSA they are not family friendly. If you are looking for family tradition examples, I promise you they will be far from the family traditions Hank sings about in his well-known Family Traditions country song. I will however, commit to one lyric…

“I’m just carrying on an ole family tradition…”

What is a family tradition mean?

Family traditions are a set of activities you repeat within a family. They can be traditional family activities, cultural traditions or they can be unconventional and modern family activities. Family traditions make each family unique as they are experiences that not every family will have. When you combine family traditions, you create your own unique family blueprint.

Why are family traditions important?

Family traditions are important for creating family memories. Family memories are important for creating family bonds. When conducting research, I learned most family traditions are not very big. Rather it is the family activity that is done together that is important. It is in those family bonding moments, memories are formed.

Family traditions enrich your life together and contribute to your child’s well-being and security. They create long lasting family memories.

How do you make family memories?

If you think about the photographs of one’s life, how many can you pull to the forefront of your mind? Memories are created when something out of the ordinary happens. The same “ole” day to day activities, will not create a new synaptic gap (photograph) in your mind. They are routine and can easily be done with little thought. When new activities come in to play, new things are experienced and new things are seen. They are indexed as a nerve connection (new file) in our mind. These are the dots that are added to our road map of life.

Think of this example as a real road map. You drive down the road form city to city. The places you recall are the places you stop. A restaurant, a hotel, a theme park, a landmark and more. When you are on the road, everything appears the same and does not create a new dot on your road map. However, when you park the car, get out and visit an attraction, a dot is added on your journey.

Before you check out these family bonding ideas, I am sure you will also love…

Examples of Family Traditions

I am sure you are asking yourself, What are some good family traditions? If you are looking to start your own family traditions and add memories to one’s childhood, take a look at these family traditions ideas. Let’s create some examples of family traditions to add dots on our road map of life.

Birthday Interview

We have a number of ways to celebrate Birthdays with Your Immediate Family. One easy tradition is this printable Birthday Interview. Ask your child the same questions every year and put them together in a time capsule (this does not have to be a box buried in the ground, keep it in a plastic bin in the closet!) You also can lead your kids on a Birthday Scavenger Hunt! | Frugal Coupon Living

Family Game Night

Turn one weekend night a month into a regular reoccurring Family Game Night. This is actually a funny family tradition for us, so many of our belly laughs and the laughs that make you cry come from a weekend game night. | Frugal Coupon Living

Take a look at our Family Game Night Bucket List. Set includes 45 Family Game Night games with instructions and supply list, 18 Minute to Win it Games, Charades & Scattergories Game Cards and Scavenger Hunt Template.

Family Game Night Bucket List Set

Family Bucket Lists

Start seasonal Family Bucket Lists. You can do a new bucket list every holiday or do fewer with one in winter, spring, summer, and fall or one the entire year. Keep this bucket list on the fridge and check off the activities as you go. Relieve your childhood with your own kids by using this Eighties Summer Bucket List too!| Frugal Coupon Living

Pray Together

An important family tradition is praying. It can be as simple as praying before bed. This has been an activity we have done every night for as long as we can remember. Try the ACTS Prayer Method (pray with 1.) adoration, confession, thanksgiving and close with supplication or requests.) Children thrive on routine and find security in deepening relationships. This gives them a glimpse into how you are feeling when you share your concerns and praise to the Lord. My husband and I have also created the tradition of listening to the Bible in a Year Podcast. This tradition has created deeper discussion among us has has been an excellent way to start the day.

Eat Dinner Together

Eating together is important for maintaining relationships. You can even have special dinner nights like Taco Tuesday, Meatless Monday or Sheet Pan Supper Wednesday. In order to stick to this dinner family tradition, start with just one night that is set apart. Perhaps give each member of the family a role in creating the complete recipe. One person can set the table, another create the prep, another serve the plates, etc.

Volunteer Together

Paying it forward is as much a gift for someone else as it is for you. Find a service project you can commit to for a season or once a month. There are many reasons to volunteer and instill the act of volunteering in our kids. Volunteering offers the chance to give something back to the community or make a difference to the people around us. It provides an opportunity to develop new skills or build on existing experience and knowledge. Plus, intrinsically, it gives to you just as much as it gives back to someone else!

Travel

Traveling is an example of doing something out of the norm. Take a cruise, go on a road trips, or even have a staycation week. Either way, make sure it is very different from your norm. If you are home, use a staycation to plan for future travel.

Dinner Questions for Conversation

Speaking of supper, download this set of nightly Dinner Conversation Starters. Dinner is the perfect occasion to communicate and often the opportunity is lost because of the distractions of the minutes. If dinner questions are not need, get to know your children and their day by every member sharing three good things about their day and one bad. This also provides an opportunity to focus on the “positive” yet still recognize the challenges a day can hold.

Cultural Family Traditions

Have you take a 23andme test? Did the results surprise you. Whether you are learning about a new culture or want to celebrate one you’ve already known, help your children celebrate their heritage by incorporating cultural family traditions. Visit a restaurant from your country, attend a cultural festival or cook a special meal on a certain day each year.

Annual Christmas Card

One family tradition you can keep (and you won’t regret this when the kids are out of the home) is taking an annual photo. It can be with a photographer or something information. Turn these yearly photos into annual Christmas Cards. One way to display your yearly Christmas cards is on a binder ring. Just add a hole punch to the corner. You can keep a binder ring for your family and a binder ring for the cards you get each year just like we see from Minted.

When writing your Christmas envelopes, make sure you take a look at these hand lettering tutorials and idea!

Pay It Forward Traditions

We have spoken many times about our family birthday idea. Take a look at this random act of kindness as a fun way to pay it forward on on your birthday at the Dollar Store or in the Dollar Spot at Target!

Valentine Family Tradition

This is one family tradition we do year after year and keep up for a long time. Add a sweet heart to your child’s do from February 1 to February 14th. The message is why they are a wonderful member of the family, a positive trait you see in them, etc. I even have my children each make a heart for each other once or twice during this period of time. It’s a great way to encourage your child.

Time Capsule Questions

Consider creating a time capsule or memory box for your child. This can include ticket stubs, baby teeth, photos from special events, special invitations, etc. Also add this Last Day of School Time Capsule. This set includes pre-K to 12th grade and is perfect for watching how your child has evolved.

Time Capsule Questions for Students Printable Set

Funny Family Traditions

They say laughter is the best medicine. Instead of following some of these traditional traditions for the family, try something unique only to your family. If you can incorporate humor, do it! For example, have a dress up night where you all eat hot dogs and Doritos on your best china. Play family board games including charades and Gestures (one of our favorites that always leads to belly laughs.) Take a look at these Weird Family Traditions from The Atlantic for some inspiration.

What are some of your favorite Family Traditions? I would love to hear from you so we can add to our list and share with others traditions for the family they might want to begin.

Minnie Mouse Party Cake Ideas

A Minnie party isn’t complete without themed treats. You don’t have to buy a cake from a bakery to make it memorable. This simple Minnie Mouse birthday cake is easy but still spectacular. Place three circular cakes together to create that classic mouse shape. Create the bow out of the cake pieces that you trim from the round cakes to make them level. Isn’t that clever? | The Soccer Mom Blog

What could be girlier than a pink polka-dot Minnie cake? This one is perfection! We love the fondant Minnie mouse ears and the giant pink Minnie bow on top. | Kara’s Party Ideas

Another low-cost Minnie birthday party solution are making your own dessert. Cupcakes made from a boxed cake mix are easy to dress up Minnie style. Top with vanilla or chocolate icing, add Oreo Minnie ears and a pretty pink fondant bow in the middle. | Ottawa Mommy Club

It doesn’t have to be February for you to make these adorable Valentine’s Day-themed Minnie cupcakes. They’re perfect for a child who loves bright and fun colors any time of year. They’re pretty but straightforward and can be tweaked to fit any color scheme you like by changing out the cookie icing and sprinkle colors. | Cutefetti

Minnie Mouse Birthday Food

Add these Disney sugar cookies with sprinkle dip to your dessert table. They’re colorful, fun, and delicious. The cream cheese dip pairs well with sugar cookies, but they’re tasty plain, too. A mickey mouse cookie cutter is easy to find on Amazon. Also take a look at our funfetti dip! | XOXO Bella

Minnie cheese and cracker snacks are the perfect way to feed your guests as they mingle. Kids and adults alike will enjoy them. Cut the cheese into mouse shapes, as you see here. The fruit skewers are a great idea, too. It’s always good to have a few healthy options for your guests. | Tanya Staab

Make some Minnie Mouse cookie pops to add to the Minnie Mouse dessert table, or send them home with your guests as favors. They’re easy to make with regular Oreos, mini Oreos, dipping chocolate, fun sprinkles, and lollipop sticks. | Living Locurto

How about this easy-peasy treat using tasty fruit like strawberries and blueberries. These strawberry and blueberry fruit skewers are another healthy choice, and they look like Minnie’s bow. We also love the “Hot Diggity Dogs” because you can’t have a Mickey Mouse event without hot dogs! | Kara’s Party Ideas

Minnie Birthday Party Décor Ideas

Create party hats with mouse ears for the guests to wear. The pink tulle ribbon is lightweight, and tulle is much more affordable than fabric bows, which is nice. The centerpiece that reads ‘ONE’ is equally adorable. You could also use decorated letters to spell out the child’s name on the table for a second birthday. | Hostess with the Mostest

Turn Styrofoam balls and shredded paper into a gorgeous Minnie Mouse centerpiece for the party. You’ll find loads of other cute ideas, too, like the polka dot tablecloth and napkins, the Minnie Mouse Rice Krispie treats, the simple polka dot cakes, and the mouse-shaped sandwiches. | Chickabug

Want to host a toddler birthday? A two year old can have a have a playful themed oh twodles girl birthday. There are great oh two-dles birthday party supplies for girls on Amazon including this mini mouse party décor set in pink/gold, pink/black or even red/black.

Make this spectacular Minnie backdrop with tissue paper pom-poms attached to a mouse-shaped paper cutout. Fluffing out the pom-poms can be time-consuming (and the pom-poms may get a little expensive), so you could always crumple black tissue paper to get a similar effect. | Jenny Cookies

Use these printable mouse ears to dress up the paper plates and make them look really special. The candy bar wrappers and napkin rings are super cute, too. | Chickabug

Mouse lanterns will look fantastic over your table. All you need to do is add mouse ears and a bow! | The Suburban Mom

Minnie Mouse Birthday Party Favors

Grab the free printable mouse heads to make these Mickey and Minnie Valentine Pops. This idea is genius and will be a big hit with kids of all ages. You’ll also need some clear plastic ornaments, and you’ll fill each half with M&Ms. That gets glued to the paper to make the mouse pops. Aren’t they gorgeous? | Down Redbud Drive

One of these Disney cuties coloring shirts will make an excellent favor or gift for the birthday girl. Make sure the kids use fabric markers to color them in. | Artsy Fartsy Mama

Hot chocolate bombs are really popular right now, so if you’re throwing a Minnie Mouse birthday party in the fall or winter, these cocoa bombs will make fantastic favors. | Dollar Crafter

Add these cute Minnie and Mickey bookmarks to the favor bags, along with an inexpensive Minnie book. Although these are made with felt, you can easily use cardstock if you’d like. | Hispana Global

Set up a crafting station with paper plates, paint, and these templates to make an adorable Minnie Mouse paper plate craft. | Simple Everyday Mom

A Minnie Mouse paper bag puppet is another cute option that the kids will love playing with once they’re finished! | Mombrite

Did you know there is a Girl Scout Manners Badge? Cookie season is not only a great time to practice table etiquette (perhaps with a tea party) but it also is a great time to say thanks!

These tags are a vertical design with adorable girl scout clip art. In the center of the template are two types of thank you sayings. The first message reads “Enjoy your cookies. Thank you for supporting our troop!” The second thank you message reads, “Thank you for supporting our troop!”

These are not folded thank you cards, so there is no inside of the card or outside of the card. If you wish to add your daughter’s name to the gift tag, simply have her sign her name at the bottom or on the back of the card. The card back has plenty of room for a personalized thank you note message.

And since Girl Scouts of the USA retired in 2020 the shortbread biscuit dipped in chocolate with the adorable thank you message, AKA Thanks-a-Lot Cookies, these gift tags make an adorable replacement for your cookie boxes.

Looking for fun birthday ideas? Make each and every family member feel special on their birthday with these Family Birthday Celebrations. These creative kids birthday ideas might just become your family’s new favorite traditions!

Family Birthday Celebrations

Our family used to have more elaborate birthday celebrations for our kids. As the years have gone by and our family headcount has gone up, the kids’ birthday celebrations have become more simplified. Our girls were 7 and 8 when their younger brother came and 8 and 9 when their additional brothers (twins) came, so it was hard to give them the celebration they deserved with all the craziness going on. That being said, there were years that it was easy (and affordable) to throw them a kids birthday party with friends. They have gotten older, and less interested, and I have been researching fun birthday ideas to make them feel loved at home without spending hundreds of dollars.

I’ve rounded up the best fun birthday ideas below to make your younger kids, your teens, or even your spouse feel special on their big day!

Make sure you get all the way to the bottom of this post — we have a really creative away for you to pay it forward and for you to give back to others each and every birthday! Such a wonderful lesson for your kids. Plus, it comes with a free printable!

We all have heard the gingerbread man story. In this classic children’s story, the Gingerbread Man leaps out of the oven and runs away… “can’t catch me, I’m the gingerbread man!”

So who is the Ninjabread man?

What is the Ninjabread Man Story?

Written by C. J. Leigh , in this fun twist on the traditional Gingerbread man tale, four ninjas train to be the strongest, fastest, smartest, and sneakiest in the land. The story follows a very well-executed ninja theme with tons of action, and perfect rhythm, rhyme, and repetition. Will Ninjabread man win?

The Ninjabread Man Elf on the Shelf

Pulling from this funny adapted story, we used a few Elf supplies we had on hand.

Ninja Elf on the Shelf Supplies

This was really easy to put together. WE put on our Elf costumes and used the stand to prop the Elves. We printed and cut the Elf on the Shelf Ninjabread Man printable sign.

How did you get your Elf on the Shelf to stand?

Getting your Elf to stand can be quite trick. There are a few resources for getting Elf on the to stand. You can wire your Elf to make him bendable and strong, though this system doesn’t always support Elf for standing. You can get the Elf on the Shelf prop stand. Lastly, Scout Elf now has some fun Elf on the Shelf legs for standing.

In the case for Ninjabread Elf on the Shelf man, we used an Elf prop stand. We masked them behind the Elf costumes and under the wooden board.

What is Elf on the Shelf?

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD.
