The Marvelous Toy

This giveaway is now over. The winner is Carol Lawrence! Congrats!

toyI’ll be honest, I had never heard off Tom Paxton before I came across the book The Marvelous Toy.  Now, that I have some experience with him, I want to get my hands on everything he’s done, because I am so impressed with this book.  Not only do you get an awesome book, but it also comes with a 4 song CD recorded by Tom Paxton!

The wonderfully bright colors is what first draws you into the book (at least it did for me).  Madison kept saying “mommy it’s so pretty” when she checked it out.  I can’t describe how awesome the illustrations in the book are.  You pretty much don’t need words on the pages to tell the story.  However, the story is about a cool toy that moves and marches, bops and stops, zips and whirrs (I’m not going to give away what it is).  I guess this is a classic song (I don’t remember it).  The books is short and sweet and perfect for my kids attention span.

Since my kids and I love this book so much, I have arranged for one lucky winner to get a copy of this book too!  Here’s what you need to do:

To enter, tell me what your favorite toy was as a child. Did it zip?  Did it bop?  Or did it whirr?

Maghound Review and Giveaway

This giveaway is now over. The winners are Amy and Tammy.

logo_maghound_allEven hear of Maghound before? I hadn’t either, but when they offered me a year membership, how could I turn it down? That being said, all my opinions are true and my own.

Now, Maghound is a magazine subscription service. However, it’s not like any one I’ve seen before. Already have magazines coming? Then you can add your subscription into it. Don’t get any magazine but want to? You can pick from 100s of choices. They really have every a magazine for everyone. Seriously.  Like a magazine that comes bimonthly or less?  Here’s where Maghound outshines everyone else:  the months that magazine doesn’t come — you get to pick another magazine to get!!!  Have a magazine like Parents that you don’t want anymore?  You can change your magazine choices whenever you want!  As you are picking your magazines, you can also see which ones are premium titles too (as they will cost you a tad more a month).

I know you’ve got to be wondering how much this costs.  It’s actually pretty affordable at $4.95 for 3 magazines (and you can add more magazine whenever you want — it’ll just change your monthly price).  At my house, we chose People for me.  I got National Geographic Little Kids and Disney & Me for the kids.  The other really cool thing is that I have the kids magazines addressed to them and mine addressed to me.  Madison always complains she doesn’t get any mail, so this is right up her alley.

I have teamed up with Maghound to offer two of my lucky readers a membership to Maghound for one year (so you too can get 3 magazines of your choice sent to your house). To enter, just let me know which 3 magazines you’d pick.

Back To School Giveaway!

This giveaway is now over. The winner is Sharon Harmon. Congrats!

Box_ThumbsUpWe’ve been in school for about three weeks already, but I know a lot of schools just started this week. It’s amazing, but Madison’s class has already had kids out sick! As moms, we also all know how when our kids bring their sickness home that the entire family tends to get sick. At least, that is how it works in my house! That is why I was happy to see that Kleenex Anti-Viral Tissues actually kill viruses in the tissue, so your family can stay healthy! Here’s a new video for back to school:

Hopefully, none of our kids will get sick this fall. However, just in case, I’ve teamed up with Kleenex to offer one lucky reader Kleenex Anti-Viral Tissues as well as a $50 Visa Gift Card to help with your back-to-school shopping list. To enter, let me know in the comments section below how you plan on Battling the Bug this season!

productTissuePrintCouponI am all about saving the planet for my kids.  Actually, I used environmentally safe products when I could before I had them, but I definitely search them out now.  SCOTT is brand we have used before, so it’s nice to see that they now have joined in on making the Earth a better place.  The bath tissue, towels and napkins include a blend of recycled and virgin fiber.  For example, the bath tissue includes 40 percent recycled fiber, towels 60 percent and napkins 80 percent. Scott Naturals flushable wipes are made with 100 percent of fibers derived from sustainable resources and natural Aloe Vera.

I’ve teamed up with SCOTT Naturals to offer one lucky reader a Green Gift Bag – a reusable tote filled with SCOTT Naturals™ product coupons, a reusable water bottle, green light bulbs, and cleaning products from Clorox Green Works.
