This Morning Sam Went to Mars: A Book About Paying Attention

Paying attention starts to come easier for distractible Sam once he learns to harness his powerful brain. Particularly helpful for young kids with ADHD.

In This Morning Sam Went to Mars (written by Nancy Carlson), it tells a story about an eight-year-old boy named Sam who is always daydreaming about exploring space and the deepest seas, which is awesome — except when he’s supposed to be focusing on schoolwork or stuff at home. It seems like all he hears is, “Focus, Sam!” and “Pay attention!” The doctor says Sam is lucky: He has a very powerful brain! But he does need some help focusing. She gives Sam and his dad lots of strategies to try to improve focus, like staying organized, eating better food, and asking for help when he needs it. Sam’s favorite strategy? Make time for imagination!


The book offers strategies to help all kids who are easily distracted, including those with ADHD. For me, I wish Brandon would pay attention to his teachers at school. I'm constantly reminding him. This is a fun book and I hope it will help him improve.


At the end of the book, the author offers extra tips to parents and teachers for helping kids with attention challenges:

• Make sure they get enough sleep
• Help them eat a healthy diet
• Provide structure
• Reduce distractions
• Make time for physical activity
• Encourage creativity

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:


Nancy Carlson is an accomplished children’s book author and illustrator who has published more than 60 books. A lifelong Minnesotan, Nancy graduated from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design with a major in printmaking. She believes that life should be fun for everyone, but especially for children. This optimistic message permeates her picture books and provides a positive counterpoint to much of what children are influenced by in today’s society. Her characters convey positive messages without being “preachy.” They gently remind children what is right.

Nancy is also a guest author and illustrator at over 150 school classrooms each year and has touched the lives of thousands of children across the country. She lives in Minneapolis.


WHERE TO BUY: This Morning Sam Went to Mars is now available for purchase at your local book retailers, FreeSpirit Publishing, and on Amazon.com.

Disclosure: I received a complimentary copy of the mentioned book from the PR Firm/Publisher in exchange of my honest review in this post. My opinions are my own and may differ from those of other consumers.

Preschool Graduation Celebration 2013

It was the last day of preschool for Brandon. Can't believe it's already finished. And also can't believe that Brandon is going to Kindergarten. Time flew by quickly. We had a wonderful celebration plus a goodbye party. The kids performed for the parents and that was really adorable. Here are a few photos of Brandon in his preschool grad gown.

Monster Truck at ImportFest

Last weekend we attended a carshow called ImportFest. Brandon loves cars so we had free advanced tickets and took him to see the event. The most interesting was the monster truck and I had Brandon pose in front of it to show the size of it. All of us took photos of cars with our own cameras.

Recess Music Helps Kids Deliver a "Gratitude Attitude"

With an enthusiasm sparked by the praise showered on its 2012 Parents' Choice Gold Award winning album, Someone Else's Shoes, and its March 2013 album, SHARE!, Recess Music turns to the concept of thankfulness with the August 27 release of Gratitude Attitude, the fifth in the company's "Best Foot Forward" series of CDs ($12.99, for ages 4 - 11, run time 46 minutes).

The aim of Recess Music's "Best Foot Forward" series is to entertain while educating children and to provide families with a springboard for dialogue. The music on Gratitude Attitude was chosen with an eye to helping children understand that their attitudes are just as important as their actions in bringing harmony and understanding to their classrooms, neighborhoods, and homes. The album's 15 tracks showcase contributions by some of today's most gifted kids' musicians, including Bill Harley, Cathy Fink, Red Grammer, Nick Cope, and Debbie and Friends.

From the very first note, Gratitude Attitude invites the listener into a special world of thoughtful consideration with the easy swing of Debbie and Friends' "I'm Glad You're Here" and continues with Red Grammer's funky, humorous, laid-back blues number, "Gratitude." Other album highlights include Bill Harley's kid-pleasing "There's a Pea on My Plate" (a song guaranteed to bring a big smile or two), and Cathy Fink's folkish waltz, "Thank You." Kathy Kallick's "Use Your Napkin Not Your Mom" points to the past with music that could sit at the Carter Family table and hilarious lyrics that do justice to the memory of Homer and Jethro. The album wraps up its message with tuneful encouragement from Nick Cope, who declares, in his song "Best Foot Forward," that, "You put your best foot forward, and you'll be there soon."

The 2013 installment of Recess Music's "Best Foot Forward" series is a set of CDs that, together, define in music the precepts of generosity and gratitude. Recess Music's founder/producer Nancy Doan explains, "The two Best Foot Forward albums for 2013 are, in a sense, 'bookends' to the concepts of giving and receiving. SHARE! centers on the actions of sharing and generosity: 'What can I give to others?' Gratitude Attitude expresses the flip side of sharing: feeling grateful for the basic things of life like a beautiful, sunny day or a warm blanket to cuddle under at night, being gracious at the dinner table with good manners, or skipping technology occasionally and sending a thank you note to Grandma by 'snail mail.' Gratitude is an attitude."
