The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World represent great works of ancient times that embody the best of mythology, religion, art, power, science and beauty.  They are, in chronological order:

• The Great Pyramid of Giza
• The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
• The Statue of Zeus at Olympia
• The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
• The Mausoleum of Maussollos at Halicarnassus
• The Colossus of Rhodes
• The Lighthouse of Alexandria

Sadly only the Pyramid at Giza is still standing today, the others all having been destroyed by natural disaster.  You can read more about the Seven Wonders at Wikipedia.

I noticed that a lot of the hits on my journal writing prompts lens were coming from Google with search terms like “journal prompts for kids” and “writing prompts for kids”.  There were so many hits like this that I decided to set up a second lens specifically focused on prompts for kids and A Goldmine of Journal Writing Prompts for Kids is the end result. 

Currently there’s only about ten links to prompt resources and a few more links to articles on the benefits of journaling for kids.  The resources listed all have great collections of prompts though and are well worth a visit.  Expect this resource to grow much larger over the next few weeks as I find and add more links.

And of course, don’t forget the original lens if you are after journaling prompts more suitable for adults - A Goldmine of Journal Writing Prompts.

Do you identify yourself as a dog person or a cat person?

Or are you neither?

Perhaps you’re just an animal lover in general?

Was there a specific event or a time in your life that influenced you to prefer one type of pet over another?
