This time of year, the tale of the three wise men arises, and with it the typical interrogatories. To answer these questions is And When They Were Come unto the House by David Lee Crites.

San Francisco, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/10/2016 -- With Christmas just around the corner, the tale of the three wise men is bound to be retold. Towns around the world will put on their local rendition of the story in a play, and with this newfound exposure, people will do what they always do: question. They will sit and ask themselves about the origins of the three men and their ability to travel so quickly. Sadly, these inspective wonderers will be disappointed to find no concrete answer. This is where David Lee Crites' latest book titled And When They Were Come unto the House fills its niche. With a fictionally-framed, but historically-based narrative, he remains unimposing while detailing the answers to the troubling questions raised by the tail of the three wise men.

This style of writing leads to a variety of interesting qualities. The book itself is written as a narrative and is easily digestible, separating And When They Were Come unto the House from the dull and weighty analysis that plagues written religious theory. Instead the novel keeps the reader enthralled through a cast of relatable characters paired with brilliant imagery. Even though the argument put forth by the book is not as formal as others, it provides a plot which could easily be the truth, allowing readers insight into the real story of Christ's birth. Within the book, readers will find every question from "Why December 25th?" to "Did the men even exist?" answered.

Unfortunately, there is one resource holding And When They Were Come unto the House back from enlightening every household this Christmas: funding. To remedy this issue, Author David Lee Crites has launched a crowdfunding campaign. Patrons will be treated to anything from a spot on Crites' website to a club/group book discussion via Skype. With the support of readers Crites hopes to bring the invigorating true story of the birth of Jesus Christ to every home.

About And When They Were Come unto the House
David Lee Crites was set on a path to write And When They Were Come unto the House since a presentation he gave in 1980. The chat was aimed at "The Real Story of Christmas", and fans demanded a full written version. So Crites got to work; unfortunately, he was discouraged by the criticism he feared he would face. Eventually he pushed through his fears after accepting a family member's suggestion that he frame it as a historical fiction. Thus, And When They Were Come unto the House was born.

At an early age, little boys seem to have trouble remembering to sit to pee. To remedy this issue, the Potty Protector allows them to stand to pee without any fear of missing.

Blackfoot, ID -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/08/2016 -- Mothers everywhere struggle with getting their child to use the toilet without making a mess. As a result hundreds of guidebooks for how to potty train a child have spawned. Many mothers ever result to the common solution of telling their sons to sit down and urinate instead of stand up. Unfortunately, this only delays the issue and these children are more likely to miss once they start having to stand up. Additionally, this sitting to pee can be emasculating, especially for older gentlemen or mentally disabled adults who cannot be accurate enough to stand. This is where the Potty Protector fills its niche. By vertically extending the toilet bowl, boys are able to use the bathroom with confidence and toilet train effectively.

The Potty Protector sits atop the toilet and acts as a funnel to give its users a wider target area. In this way a child can be taught to aim better and stand to pee without having those slip ups that douse the bathroom. As a side benefit, mom no longer has to come clean up the all too typical mess. With a single piece design, the Potty Protector requires no assembly and is incredibly easy to install. Additionally, the vast majority of toilets come in just a few standard sizes and the Potty Protector effectively covers all of them.

The one of a kind product is also easy to clean with a simple spray down, ensuring that the parents have a minimal part in bathroom duties. As a side note, the Potty Protector team wants to keep manufacturing in the United States to produce jobs; sadly, this is an expensive ontaking. To remedy the issue of cost, Potty Protector has opened pre-orders early in a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign. Patrons will be rewarded with anything from a set of dinosaur stickers to a pair of Potty Protectors. With the help of readers, everyone from elderly men to toddlers can use the bathroom with confidence and mess-free.

About Potty Protector
Potty Protector was founded by Cindy Covington, mother and loving wife. Tragically, Cindy experienced a pain no mother should: the loss of a child. Her dinosaur loving four-year-old was killed by an SUV, and his two-year-old brother was traumatized by the event. As a result the brother, Conner, started making a mess in the bathroom. To help this, Cindy's husband attached a cut out bucket to the toilet, and the Potty Protector was born.

Magic has always had a special ring to it. Who does not want to do the impossible? To help normal people (of any skill level) perform David Blaine's street magic, is the Ellusionist How To Be A Magician kit.

San Rafael, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/08/2016 -- Magic is an amazing medium in which performers adapt their own artistic style and use it to wow onlookers. Today a new brand of magic is taking over. No longer is it bunnies and top hats, but coins, rubber bands, pens, cards and other typical object. This brand of magic is the phenomenon known as street magic. And while many people want to pick up street magic for its social benefits or simply the desire to make a stranger smile, magic can seem like an exclusive inner circle open only to those with lightning fast hands. This is a common misconception that Ellusionist is here to disprove. The company has trained over a million novice magicians, so nothing truly holds to common man back from magic. The How To Be A Magician kit by Ellusionist proves just that. By constructing a digestible guide alongside any needed props, anyone can bewilder an audience.

There are a variety of benefits to picking up a few skills in this field. Kids who perform magic often find it confidence building. Parents who perform magic become the center of attention and surrounded by mystery in the eyes of their children. And everyone can find a bit of passion in adapting and creating their own tricks. But worry not, for the How To Be A Magician kit comes prepacked with thirty-eight tricks in the tier one package including teleportation, disappearance, and mind reading tricks. In the tier two package, students are taught nine additional tricks that coincide with a set of professional props provided. As a side benefit, the kit is designed to do more than just perform, but teach. To achieve this goal, the kit starts students off on easy-to-perform tricks and slowly scales up, giving clients a true sense of mastery and teaching some the same tricks used by David Blaine. To garner funds for the kits, the Ellusionist team launched a Kickstarter campaign, which was funded in just one day. To pre-order visit the campaign page, and as a Kickstarter campaign there are a variety of other rewards. These rewards range from a thank you to a delivered-to-you live performance.

About Ellusionist
Ellusionist is the same company that launched the Pyro Mini Fireshooter that went viral last holiday season and was founded by Brad Christian, a lifelong magician. He was inspired to become a magician at the young age of six when he was presented with a novice magician kit. Unfortunately, the kit had its flaws and only allowed Brad to perform mediocre magic, so Brad had to work hard to come back into the world of magic. Today Brad is happy to be helping other budding magicians with a real magic kit that will save users from the embarrassment of a trinket-based low-quality kit.

Every parent values the entertainment and development of their children. Unfortunately, the typical mediums can get stale. Here to help is Get Qurious, an augmented reality storyteller.

New York, NY -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/08/2016 -- The early years of childhood development are vital to allowing any child to achieve his or her full potential. The key to keeping a young mind entertained is interaction, a value that the traditional medium of reading lacks. This lack of interaction is part of the reason that so many children stop reading for pleasure altogether. On the other extreme, toys and video games alone are too chaotically interactive to properly teach any coherent set of morals. This is where the Get Qurious Maker Box kit comes into play. By merging the structure of reading and the engagement of games, the Get Qurious Maker Box kit is able to effectively gamify education through an augmented reality system.

The kit itself is perfect for kids aged four through nine and works using the nascent technology of augmented reality via an iOS app. Augmented reality allows a camera to be pointed at a specially marked paper and bring drawings on the paper into motion, creating a surreal and animated effect. This industry is currently just in its early years but already projected to surpass eighty billion dollar in market value. (*) With augmented reality the Get Qurious Maker Box kit can actually bring age-old fairy tales to life, providing the needed aspect of interaction.

To complete the experience, the kit includes four main parts. First and most prominent are the story cards that breath life into classic stories. Next are the masks, which allow children to act as characters in the story. On an even deeper level of interaction, there are stickers that enable users to alter and customize the animated stories. And to round out the learning experience there is a set of related puzzles that activate when they are completed correctly. Sadly, this breadth of material requires a non-nominal amount of funds to produce. To remedy this issue the Get Qurious team has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. Donators to the cause will be rewarded with a Get Qurious Maker Box kit from the first production batch. With the support of readers Get Qurious will be well on its way to transforming learning and entertainment with augmented reality technology.
