Are these cute or what? These "constructive eating" utensils add just enough fun to meal time to encourage your little guy to eat his food. These utensils also help him unleash his imagination as the food on his plate transforms into snow, rocks, boulders, mud...the sky's the limit. They would also be perfect for turning ordinary days into special occasions like "Friday Night Food Fun". They are also BPA free!

My boys have always loved for me to read them stories at night. They especially enjoy stories about LOVE. I have selected some books that would be great for Valentine's Day or any day of the year! Check out these books by clicking on the image. We have Fill a Bucket: A Guide to Daily Happiness for the Young Child
and it is just a wonderful story about how people "fill invisible buckets" with love by doing kind things for one another. It is a great way to encourage the boy in your life to be kind and compassionate to others and is a great resource as a reminder throughout the day, for example "Are you filling your brother's bucket by treating him this way?" It allows boys of all ages to put a visual reminder to an abstract idea and it works for us :)

In addition to using Dinner Games at home, we also plan to use Family Time Fun Gather Round Dinner Game
when we go out to eat with the boys. This game requires batteries, but we think that it will really make eating out more fun!
Just click on any link to buy one of these games for your boy!

While looking for unique gifts to give my boys for Valentines Day, I discovered this plush beating heart. After reading the description of this little pillow, I knew at once that it is the perfect gift for boys of all ages. Hugging this pillow will remind them of their deep connection to animals and humans by internalizing the rhythm of the heartbeat. The great thing about this pillow is that the heartbeats are modeled after human heartbeats during meditation, so your boy will unconsciously sync his heartbeat into a more relaxed state of being. The soft, fluffy cover is washable and it comes in a heart shaped box (shown below). Click this link to learn more about this unique pillow or to buy one for the boy in your life: My "Little" Beating Heart, the Soothing Heartbeat You Can Feel. Sage Green, Washable, Small Child Safe
*Go to Valentine Gift Ideas for Boys for more heart centered gifts that are guaranteed to warm the souls of boys everywhere.

First Aid Kit

This first aid kit is different from all the others.
Everything come in a box shaped like an ambulance and the kit includes:
- animal shaped bandages
- anti - ouchy ointments
- a pretend stethoscope
- stickers to make everything all better.
Boys are often given the impression that it isn't ok to cry even when they are hurt. They need to be able to feel free to express emotion and communicate all of their feelings. This little kit, along with positive encouragement will help them grow into emotionally, strong boys who will also be empathetic to the pain of others. Combine this kit, with this Soft Hug First Aid Cool Pack (shown below) and the boy in your life will be feeling better in no time. There are also some Sesame Street latex-free bandages and Peanuts latex free bandages
available for those boys who are allergic to latex (like my youngest boy).
About The Souls of Boys
I am the mother of two boys. I have an MA in Education and a BS in Psychology. After completing research for my Master's thesis in graduate school, I was dismayed to discover the horrific, detrimental effects that violence (in all forms) has on the human brain, especially the brains of children. Violence (in all forms) literally causes brain damage. As a result of violence, violent play, violent video games, violent T.V. shows, stress hormones are released and the brain starts to rewire itself to form coping mechanisms that result in the numbing of certain parts of the brain associated with emotions and memory.
It is imperative that we take the souls of boys into consideration as we guide them along the path of living, learning and loving. As we look outward onto the world today, we can see violence in every direction and the majority of this violence is being perpetrated by boys and men of all ages. It is time to make a change and take a stand for our boys.
Being mindful and conscienteous about the stimuli that our boys are being exposed to is essential for the betterment of the future of humankind. They are BIG souls in little bodies that deserve to remain innocent for as long as possible. Violent toys, video games, T.V. shows and other forms of media, steals their innocence and teaches them (in small, subtle doses) that this is who they are on the inside and has a negative impact on their brains.
Boys have also been removed from nature, activities that instill a sense of purpose are nearly non-existant and toys that promote cognitive skills have been replaced with violent and/or nonsensical toys. Essentially, boys have been stripped from all avenues to connect to their own sense of curiosity and wonderment, leaving them with a false and superficial view of the world around them.
My vision is to help others nurture the souls of the boys in their lives. My hope is to help bring back the natural balance that boys deserve. I spend hours researching the best toys, books and media for the souls of boys. At "The Souls of Boys", every product is handpicked by me. I do not get paid to review products, nor do I get products sent to me to review. These are products that I believe in and would personally buy for my own boys. Check back often for more non-violent, non-toxic, soul centered toys, books, media and resources.
