In the book Making A Family Home, the book's author, Shannon Honeybloom, describes her home and family life. The room-by-room guide gives you hints on how to turn your house into a home. And includes beautiful photographs by Skip Hunt.

Inside "Making a Family Home," readers will also learn:
• How to make your home warm and cozy
• How to support your child’s development at home
• How to involve your children in homemaking – cooking, crafting, cleaning, and so on
• How to create routines that support difficult transitions (bedtime, mealtime, and so on)
• How to get more play and leisure use out of your yard
• How to create a community of support for your family life

I also have three copies of Making a Family Home by Shannon Honeybloom to give away to three lucky Fairy Blog Mother readers.
