{CLOSED} Giveaway: Hallmark Back to School Gift Pack

I have a really fun little giveaway for those of you with little ones. Hallmark is providing a package of their newest products to make the transition back to school a little more fun.

The giveaway includes:

Recordable Hallmark Storybook (in your choice of Counting Kisses, Guess How Much I Love You or All The Ways I Love You.)
These books can be recorded and as you turn each page, the child will hear your voice reading them a story. These books are priced at $30.00 and there are tons of titles to choose from from Cars 2 to Princess to Thank You God for Everything.

We received the Counting Kisses book to check out and I really do love these books.  I recorded this one for my little Maya for when she is “helping” me make dinner.  She always wants me to read books and well.. that isn’t condusive with cooking so this comes in handy.  These are absolutely perfect for those of you with loved ones that are far away, on business trips or deployed because the children can still hear Mommy/Daddy/Grandpa etc.. reading them a book every night.

I have the “I Love You Grandma” book on my list to buy this year.  It is a book that your child can record as a gift for Grandma.  My mother in law lives in Seattle and she only gets to see the girls once a year so I think having this kind of thing for her to hear their little voices is totally worth the $30.

Lunch Notes for Kids. So this is a little packet of notes that you can tuck away into a lunchbox for the kids to be surprised at school.  Now I thought two things when I first heard of these- 1. I should really do that and 2. Those are kind of expensive.

These are priced at $6.95 which in my head I was thinking- well I can make those myself for free.  I will tell you after actually looking at them- these little notes are seriously cute.  You get 50 in a pack and they say things that I would never come up with on my own like:

“Be Good. Be Nice. Be Yourself. Nobody Does You Better Than You.”

So I tend to be a very sappy person when it comes to my kids and I think this kind of thing is fantastic.  I think these are cute for school aged kids or I think those of you with teenagers that can be less than delightful from time to time might consider taping these to the mirror for them as a surprise.  Those of you that have kids that recently left for college might like these too for little care packages throughout the year.

 

You also get 3 of the new Kid’s Collection greeting cards to use throughout the school year.

Finally, there is one more thing for the winner and that is Mabel’s Labels coupon code for a free set of colorful sticky labels with free shipping ($21 value).

I don’t know anyone that can’t use labels- if you don’t have little ones these are still very handy to put your last name on and stick them to DVDs, CDs, books etc…  anything that tends to get legs and walk away.
