I have five boys.
Two teenagers, one 10 year old, and a set of soon-to-be-nine twins.
I love having sons.
They are fun to be with and quite adventurous. They are not high maintenance and all you really need to do with them is make sure they are fed and clean for the most part.
They keep me busy and on my toes--I love them to pieces and so glad that I get to be their mom. One of the things that I always try to keep in mind is that these young sons of mine will become men one day. They will be husbands, fathers, and hard workers one day so what I sow into them now will play an important role in the future.
I want them to be growing in the Lord, growing in learning how to work hard, and growing in their character. I want them to be well equipped for whatever the Lord has planned for their lives. This is such a precious time, to have them every single day of their childhood and be able to mold and shape them.
So I am grateful for helpful tools that help me to teach them as they grow and as I homeschool them. And that is why I am sharing about the Boy Curriculum Bundle from the Build Your Bundle Homeschool Sale today.
It contains all kinds of exciting fun goodness for your sons. Here is what it includes:

Celebrating Manhood: A Rite of Passage Guide - Retail $14.95
His voice deepens. Soft whiskers sprout above his upper lip. That sweet baby boy you once held in your arms is becoming a man.
How will you celebrate?
"When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways" (1 Corin. 13:11.)
Extensive research asserts the importance of acknowledging a young man's entry into adulthood. However, most of Western culture does not mark the transition from boyhood to manhood in any meaningful way. Sadly, an important opportunity is often lost.
Is there a simple way to celebrate this significant milestone?
Celebrating Manhood is a blueprint for hosting a special evening that will acknowledge your son as an adult and welcome him into the world of men.
If you're a mom who wants to celebrate her son's journey into manhood—but recognizes he needs men to mark the moment, be encouraged! Celebrating Manhood shows you how!

Of Knights and Fair Maidens - Retail $5.95
Jeff and Danielle Myers were determined to do things differently. So, before the era of "True Love Waits" or the writing of I Kissed Dating Goodbye, they interviewed married couples to discover the keys to a successful courtship. They applied these principles in their own relationship and later, wrote this humorous, heart-warming book. 15 years later, they have re-released an updated version of this classic, which has given tens of thousands of young couples honest and straightforward counsel about the best way to prepare for marriage.
Note: This book is for everyone, not just boys, but we see value in training our boys to be men of character and this is a great book for that!
