Creativity + Education = Happy Kids + Happy Moms

By Mir

May 26, 2008

I have a totally awesometastic (that’s a word, because I say so) contest for you today, courtesy of Education.com, a fabulous resource site for parents. I’d probably say that even if they weren’t offering up some cool toys for the kids, even.

As it happens, though, Education.com wants to give away three cool toys to Want Not readers. All three have already received their A+ seal of approval, and all three will afford your kiddos hours of fun. Here’s what you could win:

Happily Ever Crafter by Alex toys, a kit containing 9 different fabric crafts and recommended for ages 7+
Magnetic Poetry Kids StoryMaker, which gives kids everything they need to write a masterpiece on your fridge, recommended for ages 8 – 14
Zimbbos Elephantastic Pyramids by Blue Orange, a wooden stacking game for kids ages 3+

Any of those sound good? Of course they do! Here’s what you need to do to win: Leave a comment on this post by 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday, May 28th, 2008, telling me which ONE toy you’d most like to win. This becomes something of a game of strategy, because you may only ask for one toy and the first number drawn will get their pick. The second number drawn will only win if their pick is still available, and so on. Pick one and cross your fingers. One entry per person, valid email address, follow the directions, do not pass Go, do not collect $200, etc.

Winners to be determined by random number generation and stacks of elephants. As soon as I find some elephants willing to be stacked, that is.

Go!

Oh, just my luck to be first. #1 almost never wins! But the magnetic poetry would be fantastic for my class. Fourth graders (at least mine!) love playing with words.
Heather Cook on May 26, 2008 at 3:08 pm

Oooh! Definitely the Zimbbos Elephantastic Pyramids because my daughter LOVES any animal. And she can’t quite say Elephant yet.
Helen on May 26, 2008 at 3:15 pm

Elephantine stacking stuff pleassse!
Michele DeMichieli on May 26, 2008 at 3:17 pm

Thanks, Mir!
Jess on May 26, 2008 at 4:02 pm

I would like the pyramids (which, apparently, puts me with the majority; not so great for the numbers in my favor!). Still, that’s what would work best for us. Thanks, Mir!
Debra on May 26, 2008 at 4:03 pm

Sounds great, my girls would love this!

Zimbbos Elephantastic Pyramids for me…I mean my 4 year old. Thanks
Kyallee on May 26, 2008 at 4:27 pm

Stacking elephants just might be enough to keep my almost-4-year-old from stealing the baby’s blocks right out of her slimy little hands… Thanks!
Erin on May 26, 2008 at 4:27 pm

Elephantastic pyramids sound great! I’m glad I’m not the only one who makes up words…mine this week was herocious…it just came out and felt right.

I would love to be able to give my daughter Happily Ever Crafter. My mother taught me to sew when I was 9, and I hope I am able to teach her as well (It seems to be one of those dying, yet oh so useful arts) A Craft kit with fabric projects would be a great way to spark her interest. Thanks Mir for bringing us such great giveaways!
Tiff in OKC on May 26, 2008 at 5:13 pm

Hmm. Happily Ever Crafter. Thanks, Mir!
Tina on May 26, 2008 at 5:15 pm

What cute things…while I LOVE that crafting kit, my kids wouldn’t appreciate it as much (too young), so i’d have to go for the Zimbbos Elephantastic Pyramids. I know both would enjoy them.
Kayla on May 26, 2008 at 5:17 pm

Dren on May 26, 2008 at 5:28 pm

I so have a hole in my son’s closet that’s crying out for a pyramid made of elephants to fill it. Really.
mapiprincesa on May 26, 2008 at 5:32 pm

The Magnetic Poetry kit is great as we are at the exciting Reading time! Thank you.
Barbara on May 26, 2008 at 5:34 pm

man, that happily ever crafter thing would be a dream come true to two parents who’d much rather sit on the deck and look at the lake this summer than find things for their kids to do.

not that i’m that kinda parent, or anything…..

pretty mir is always welcome to join us!
Damsel on May 26, 2008 at 5:40 pm
