This handy book is like a play manual for couples! The book teaches couples the importance of couple play, how to discover what sort of types of things you and your partner enjoy and how to make it happen.
The book is an excellent source of play ideas, everything from taking a trip together or cooking an ethnic dinner together to telling each other jokes or play footsies under the table while at a restaurant!
The aim is to bring play, humor and fun into your marriage to help develop a closer, more enjoyable and intimate relationship.
I also like the fact that the book discusses what isn't play, even if one partner calls it play, using it as a cloak for acting or speaking hurtfully. It also clearly draws the line between what is destructive teasing and what is truly playful teasing that both partners enjoy.
The book also has a section on creating a playful, cheerful atmosphere in your own home, recommending you think of your home as a "mood-shaper".
The book includes many fun, playful suggestions to help you get into the creative mind set so you can turn your own home into a place of cheerful play.
A fun and challenging book for any couple to explore! Packed full of ideas and inspiration you'll be sure to glean many new ideas and tools to improve and enhance your marriage! A book I'd recommend to anyone searching to put more fun into their own marriage.

"Right From The Start" by Mike Schaffer, a book review
"Right From The Start" by Mike Schaffer
This is a great book! It walks you through training right from the start to produce a relaxed, balanced, soft, straight, responsive horse. The book is clearly written with detailed line drawings and has many clear, color photos of the exercises.
The book is a wonderful guide showing you how simple it is to teach your horse everything it needs for a solid foundation to move and carry you properly with greater ease and joy. It simplifies the process and keeps to what is important.
I highly recommend this book!

" Why Mars and Venus Collide: Improving Relationships by Understanding How Men and Women Cope Differently with Stress" by John Gray
" Why Mars and Venus Collide: Improving Relationships by Understanding How Men and Women Cope Differently with Stress" by John Gray
This book is a wonderful read! It clearly and simply describes the many differences between men and women.
Everything from how our brains are hardwired differently, to our hormonal differences and how we each handle stress.
After thoroughly informing the reader of the many extensive differences between men and women, the book then goes on to address how these differences can lead to misunderstandings and augments, then how to properly handle those misunderstandings.
The book also goes through in great detail the differences between men and women's needs, how to meet each others needs, as well as many ideas to help women meet their own, more extensive social and nurturing needs.
This book is a must read for all married couples but is also an excellent read for anyone looking to gain a clear, easy to apply understanding of the opposite sex.
I have read my fair share of marriage and relationship books but found this one to be an unique, highly educational book that brings more to the table than usual.
I highly recommend this book!
