Fun Alternatives If You Dont Celebrate Halloween!

Hey jammers! graciepopstar91 here with a semi-AJ related blog post! Today I will be talking about fun alternatives if you do not celebrate Halloween!

1. With parents permission (and help if needed) put a few Christmas items in your house, or if you have a Christmas village house set, place that out, make hot cocoa, listen to christmas music, and your good to go!
2. Decorate your den on Animal Jam with Christmas stuff!
3. If you have some money saved up, go to the store (with your parents or with parents permission) and buy a little bit of on sale Halloween candy!

If you do celebrate Halloween, I respect that. And I would just like to say stay safe if you go trick-or-treating! 

As you may or may not know I do not celebrate Halloween. And a tradition me and my mom started is putting up our Christmas village! Getting on sale Halloween candy and setting up our Christmas village is my favorite fall tradition! Comment below on what your favorite family tradition!

Heres todays Bible verse :).

Romans 12:2

2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

This verse is a really good verse! This verse teaches us that we shouldnt act like the world meaning, dont be involved in the junk that you may see on some TV shows, not wearing clothes with things that may say bad things or dont have a nice picture on them. Thats what it means to not be conformed to the patterns of this world :). 

Remember, God made YOU! And also stay safe tonight!

New Item!

Hey Jammer's!  CoolCat here with another post!  And today I will be telling you about a new item in Coral Canyons!  There is just one item.  And it is the members only Epic Steampunk Contraption.  It is for sale for 1,000 gems.  I personally don't quite know what to think about this item!  I don't have the inventory space to try it out. But anyway, here is todays verse!




Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Ephesians 5:16

New Poll, Old Poll!

Hey jammers! graciepopstar91 here! Just a little bit ago I put up a new blog poll! But first I will talk about the old one. It was called, "Whats your favorite sport?"

As you can see, cycling won! (Which is my favorite sport!) If you didnt get to vote, feel free to say what your favorite sport is in the comments down below. The new poll we have up now is, "Whats your favorite season?". 

I havent voted yet, but my favorite season is Winter! I love the cold whether and seeing all the Christmas decorations, opening Christmas presents, spending time with family, and celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ! 

Fun fact about the birth of Jesus: 

1. No one knows exactly how many wise men there were. Just because there was 3 gifts doesnt mean there was just 3 wise men. 

Heres todays Bible verse.

Luke 2:11

11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you. He is Christ the Lord. 12 Here is how you will know I am telling you the truth. You will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth and lying in a manger

Remember, God made YOU!

God is Amazing!

Hey jammers! graciepopstar91 here with another non-AJ related post. Todays post is about how amazing God is!
Today me and my mom went to a farm. And they had a pumpkin patch! Near the pumpkin patch they have a sign tell people how pumpkins grow. It said how they start out as a seed then turns into a FLOWER! Then if bees pollinate the flower it turns into a green pumpkin! Then turns it turns orange. When you think about this its just mind blowing to to think how a flower can turn into a pumpkin! This is so crazy and amazing it just couldnt have happened all by itself. And it didnt. God made the flower like that so it can turn into a pumpkin! That alone just proves that God is real and that he is bigger than anything and he is so amazing! Another thing that is mind blowing-ly awesome and proves this is God, is the amazing life cycle of the butterfly! It starts out as a tiny tiny blue egg then turns into a caterpillar, then the caterpillar hangs itself onto a plant and forms a chrysalis! And then a few days later a beautiful butterfly comes out! Like the pumpkin, that shows God totally is real! Because how could that happen out of nowhere?
When the butterfly emerges, you would think that the butterfly would be like what is this straw like thing near my eyes and these wings on my back... And have no idea what to do! But that isnt true. God gave the butterflies knowledge to flap their wings and put the straw like thing (the proboscis) on fruit or flowers! Pretty amazing!

Heres todays Bible verse.

Genesis 1:11

11 Then God said, "Let the land produce plants. Let them bear their own seeds. And let there be trees on the land that bear fruit with seeds in it. Let each kind of plant or tree have its own kind of seeds." And that's exactly what happened.
12 The land produced plants. Each kind of plant had its own kind of seeds. The land produced trees that bore fruit with seeds in it. Each kind of tree had its own kind of seeds.
God saw that it was good

Remember, God made YOU and loves YOU!

Butterflies!

Hey jammers! graciepopstar91 here! As you may or may not know, Animal Jam is FULL of Halloween items. And Halloween kinda creeps me out and I dont celebrate it. So I'm going to do a post thats not related to Animal Jam. Its going to be about.. Butterflies! About two or three weeks ago me and my mom ordered caterpillars online! So on October 15th I got them! When I got them they didnt do anything expect eat and eat and crawl around! But then a few days later they went into a sleeping bag like chrysalis! (ch-ris-a-lis). Now lots of people know thats just what they do. But did you know that while there in their chrysalis if another caterpillar gets close near it, it shakes like crazy because they think its a enemy to them? Pretty awesome! Then a few days later they all of the caterpillars came out of their chrysalis's!

 The kind of butterfly I got was a painted lady butterfly. Heres a picture!

If you have seen monarch butterflies before, you can tell they look a lot alike!
 You know why? Monarchs are poisonous to most animals, so God made the painted lady to look like the monarch so animals wont eat them i guess!

If you would like to buy caterpillars and experience this for yourself, go to insectlore.com  with your parents.

If you do get these caterpillars i have a weird tip but it helps. Do not name your caterpillars! I did this once and got attached to them and got really sad when i had to let them go.

Remember, God made YOU (and caterpillars!)

Heres todays Bible verse.

Matthew 6:34

34 "So don't worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own

This is so true. I have trouble with this, but just know God knows what tomorrow has in store and you cant change it. So why worry about tomorrow? :)

Beta Of The Week!

Hey Jammer's!  CoolCat here with another post!  And its time for another Beta Of The Week post!  And todays Beta is going to be Moon Dirt.  Moon Dirt is a members only flooring.  It was sold for 150 gems in Jam-Mart Furniture.  It was released during an unknown time during the Beta Days.  It goes very well with the Arcade style den.  I hope you enjoyed! Bye Jammers, and Jam On!

I'm sooo sorry!

Hey jammers! Im so sorry not many posts have been going up lately. I promise more posts will go up probably after Halloween. Before I go im going to put up a Bible verse :)

Psalm 37:7 

Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act.

Remember, God made YOU!

Sorry this post was short!

Beta Of The Week!

Hey Jammers! CoolCat here with another post! I'm so sorry I have not been keeping up with my posts, I have been so sick lately. So I'm going to keep this post short. Todays Beta is the Orange Gecko Plushie. It was sold for 100 gems in Jam-Mart Furniture at an unknown time during the Beta Days. There are six white spots on its back. It is also a non-member item. And there you have it! I also want to say sorry if I have used this one before. Bye Jammers, and Jam On!

Hey Jammers!

Hello Jammers! Hope you're having a great weekend! Ok so, there are some new halloween den and clothing items, and a weird one came out today, and that is "the bread hat"

I think AJ is running out of ideas.

Ok, moving on, there are some new items in epic wonders, like halloween decor and other things, like the phantom mask

This is cool for anytime you want to dress as a phantom. Next we have the cool flaming crown and tiaras.

I think they're cool, and of course, if you are a member, you can change the color.

Then we have some items leaving epic wonders:

Also there is a new party, pet tarantulas are back, new animal is coming,(the clue in mt. shiveer leads me to think it's an arctic fox), and if you redeem any animal jam gift card, you get a polar bear, and polar den items.

Well that's it for today. Have an awesome weekend! Jam safe!

Today's verse:

Hey Jammers!

Hey jammers! graciepopstar91 here! Today i dont have anything to post about sadly. I know today is RIM (Rare Item Monday) but it is a Halloween item. Im very sorry their hasn't been many posts on the blog. I will try harder to do posts more often.

Heres todays Bible Verse!

James 1:19 

Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.

Remember, God made YOU!

Beta Of The Week!

Hi Jammer's!  CoolCat here with another post!  And its time for another Beta Of The Week!  Todays Beta is Planet Walls!  It is a members only den item.  It was released at a unknown time during the Beta Days in Jam-Mart Furniture.  It was also sold for 150 gems.  Some jammers call it the Planet Wallpaper instead of Planet Walls. I hope you enjoyed! Bye, and Jam On!

RIM: Rare Mammoth Tusks, and Daily Explorer News!

Hey jammers! graciepopstar91 here with todays RIM! Its called Rare Mammoth Tusks!

Item worth

Beta: Most likely never.

Rare: Maybe in a few years. Not 100% sure though.

Price: 550 gems

Location: Jamaa Township, Jam-Mart-Clothing (11th page) 

Item scale: 4/10

I dont like this item too much. But if you like it thats fine :)

Its kinda strange, in Jam-Mart-Clothing theres Mammoth Tusks but they are not rare. But they are strangely more expensive than the rare ones..

Kinda weird the non-rare one is more expensive! 

Okay, our next topic is.. AJ is updating for some people? My friend (who is an author for AJFC) CoolCat is having this problem as well. For some reason, some people are getting this warning.

Photo credit for warning picture: Daily Explorer

If you do not read the Daily Explorer you probably dont know whats going on with you account and how to fix this problem. In the blog post AJ put up on the Daily Explorer  it said to email AJHQ your username if you have this problem. Im not sure if you still have to email your username because i believe AJHQ is fixing this. But if you still are having this problem you can email AJHQ. For more details on contacting AJHQ click here. 

In the mean time while AJ is fixing this problem, you may be kinda down that you cant go on AJ. If you are looking for some fun things to do, you can go to AJ Academy  (which is Animal Jam science stuff that is connected to AJ) and download some science projects!

(But before doing any experiments be sure to get parents permission!)

Heres todays Bible Verse.

John 11:25 

Jesus told her, I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying.

Fall update!

Hey Jammers! Aj has updated for fall! With an awesome new den, a new party, cool den items and clothing accessories, and an adventure for the pets! The pet adventure is a fun way to get a lot of free stuff, like candy shop den items! I think aj should have more pet adventures. And the pet bats are back! I think they are cute. :) And if you are having trouble finding the bat, its in the spooky party, and you click the bat in the wallpaper next to the open door that leads to the basement thing. There is also a new game where you try to keep the phantoms from taking your piece of candy.
Also in epic wonders, they have the October birthstone, or Opal as it is called. I think it is very pretty. :) It's sparkly and can be different colors.
Well that's pretty much it for now.

Today's verse comes from 1st Chronicles chapter 16, verse 34

Have an AWESOME weekend! Jam safe! And remember, God made bats! :)

New update!

Hey jammers! graciepopstar91 here with yesterdays update! Most of it is Halloween stuff, like how Bitter Sweets is back, the Halloween den is back, etc. But because i dont celebrate Halloween im going to skip over that stuff. The part that doesnt have to do with Halloween is on page 4.

On the first half of the page (left) it says that theres a new icon at the top of your screen! And if you click on it you can play games!

On the second half of the page (right) theres a new shop! 

And the stuff you can buy isnt what you would think! You would probably think brand new smile and sad masks and more. But actually.. Its a den item set AJ had in there den item contest! The theater den set!

I love the movie screen! Its really cool! 

Okay moving onto the next page!

On the left side, it says that its Wolf Awareness Week! I wonder if you buy a wolf if the gems go to real money for wolves! What do you think? Comment below on what you think! On the right side, it says how October 4th is world animal day! All around Animal Jam theres banners that say World Animal Day.

Then finally on the last page...

Is an ad for the pet ferrets. Theres only two weeks left to redeem an Animal Jam Gift Card and get a pet ferret! (After two weeks you can still redeem your gift card but just wont get a pet ferret.) 

Heres todays verse.

Colossians 4:2

Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart.

Remember, God made YOU!
