Jess — Sun, 22 Apr 2012 14:53:10 +0000

Due to some family and personal problems I was unable to finish getting up the Princess Dot Bday giveaways! But I am finally back and things are hopefully back in order and I can get these next giveaways rolled out.

The continue to listen to us customer and grow and expand the new products that continue to roll out and the latest product to ROLL on out of the headquarters is Little Tikes Pillow Racers, it’s a PILLOW and a RIDE ON!

Race around on these soft, cuddly characters! The four caster wheels allow these character ride ons to easily turn in any direction and the easy to grip handles help little ones hang on for a fun ride! The Pillow Racers are sure to be nothing but a rollin’ fun time! The Pillow Racers are sure to be nothing but a rollin’ fun time! Product Features: Soft, washable character – Dino, Turtle, and Lady Bug available; Each character cover easily detaches from the base and can be used as a cuddly friend; Four caster wheels allow easy, quick turns; Easy grip handle attaches to the base to provide extra stability for riders; Ages: 18 to 36 mos.

The kids at Princess Dot’s birthday party absolutely LOVED the Little Tikes Ladybug Pillow Racer. Princess Dot loved that when she went to bed that night she could take it to bed with her and snuggle with it. It is her absolute favorite ride on toy that we have, she spins it all over the house and when the weather is nice she drags it outside with her. The older boys are always trying to take it from her, the weight limit is 50lbs which all of my kids are under but the age limit is about 3 which means the older boys are much too big for it so they look kind of funny trying to roll around on it. I absolute LOVE that it is soft and stuffed so my walls do not get dinged up with the constant rolling into them…why do kids think it’s so fun to ride into walls?

Win it!

One lucky MSM reader will win a Little Tikes Pillow Racer of their choice!

Win & Give promotion! Win a XO Laptop and Betty Crocker Fruit Flavored Snacks!

Jess — Sat, 21 Apr 2012 15:13:09 +0000

Last year I had the awesome opportunity to help promote Betty Crockers Win & Give campaign where you all had the chance to win an XO Laptop and some of my kids favorite fruit flavored snacks from Betty Crocker. This year they are at it again!

The Win & Give campaign provides an opportunity for kids in the US to win an XO laptop AND give a laptop to a child in Africa, for every 100 UPC’s entered from the Betty Crocker Fruit Flavored Snacks, a XO Laptop will be donated to a child in Africa! I have already started entering our UPC’s and since we go through fruit snacks like crazy having 5 kids (and a sister with 6 kids) I bet we will be able to come up with 200 UPC’s before the promotional period is over…that means we get to help 2 children in Africa receive a XO Laptop!

Parenting expert Dr. Michele Borba is working Betty Crocker Fruit Flavored Snacks and the “Win & Give” campaign, a partnership with the non-profit One Laptop per Child (OLPC), not only to make it easy for moms and kids to give to others, but also to show that giving to others can be fun.

Dr. Borba recently traveled to Rwanda with Betty Crocker Fruit Flavored Snacks and OLPC to help give XO laptops to kids in schools. For her thoughts on the trip and the program itself, please visit www.MicheleBorba.com. For more information, you may also check out www.WinOneGiveOne.com to see first-hand the incredible impact these laptops have had on the kids in Rwanda along with additional tips from Dr. Borba and videos of her speaking about the positive impact giving back has on the lives of children. **An excerpt from 2012 new release**

Like last year, I get the opportunity to give one of you lucky ducks a XO Laptop and some Betty Crocker Fruit Flavored Snacks!
