You Can Stay Home With Your Kids Book Review

You Can Stay Home With Your Kids is the latest book from blogger and author Erin Odom. As a stay at home mom, I truly appreciate this little book and recommend it to anyone looking for simple ways to trim their budget. This book is highly beneficial in content and design as it is divided into chapters with short sections that don’t take much time to read. Erin is a stay at home mom with four children so she has experience when it comes to finding unique ways to save money.

Unlike many books on finance in which the reader is offered tips that will require much time to pass before receiving a return on their investment, this book is very practical and many of the tips can be applied right away. One of my favorite tips was about using Swap.com, an online consignment store for all ages and genders. I had never heard of Swap prior to reading You Can Stay Home With Your Kids so I decided to give it a try and I was ecstatic to purchase 16 items of clothing for under $100. This example is one of many offered in the book. Erin also includes DIY ideas for making household items using ingredients you probably already have on hand. I was excited about this portion of the book since I make some of my own household detergents.

Another aspect of the book I truly appreciate is the aesthetic appeal. The cover design is beautiful as are the pages inside. As the mother of a toddler who is constantly getting into my books, I really appreciate that the book includes a ribbon bookmark. You Can Stay Home With Your Kids is just under $15 on Amazon and I truly believe that the small investment in purchasing your copy will reap large dividends in the long run.

You Can Stay Home With Your Kids will be available at all major booksellers on April 10th but you can preorder today and take advantage of the preorder bonuses!

I received You Can Stay Home With Your Kids compliments of Zondervan in exchange for my honest review.
