Sam's Club has partnered with Box Tops for Education to offer bonus box tops on select General Mills products. Until the end of August (which is three days away) you can get a total of six box tops. If your children are as adamant as mine are they are serious about cutting and collecting the boxtops that they find on our grocery store purchases. Their schools make it even more fun for them by offering them incentives throughout the year for bringing in a certain amount of boxtops. They are allowed to attend special events, as well as get extra ...

Congratulations to comment number 6! Deanna U you are the winner! I'm not sure how many families who have small children let their children watch television. I will readily admit that I do, to a certain extent. The show has to be colorful, educational, and make my children want to get up and move. Here comes Yo Gabba Gabba! (And mind you, my three year old son Tooty first got addicted to the show because they have a character named Tooty. So when they would sing to Tooty he thought they were singing to him.) Yo Gabba Gabba! is now m...

I like to feed my family healthy food as much as possible. I use to only incorporate healthier foods in our dinners, and settle for something quick and easy in the mornings for breakfast. That usually resulted in lots of sugary cereals or quick fixes that they could pop in the toaster or microwave. Their breakfasts were full of extra sugar, fat, and basically a bunch of empty calories. I was recently given the opportunity to have my family taste test some healthy, organic breakfast options by Cascadian Farm and we are hooked. In my package ...

I am always looking for family friendly movies to watch with my sons. There aren't many movies that I can find playing on tv that I approve of. (Only because I like to watch a movie beforehand if I can.) Sometimes children movies have adult innuendos in them that I just don't like. I was really excited to learn that Wal-Mart and P&G had teamed up to start creating the exact type of movies that I was looking for. I was really happy to see that not only would the be placing these movies on tv, but they would release them for sell to be sold ...

As our children grow and learn to get around by themselves, we begin to think about the footwear that we buy and what is best for the baby. We all want to help our babies along in the process of learning how to walk.  There are several types of baby shoes and shoes to help them walk easily. There are several differing opinions as far as what type of shoe is best for baby.  I do believe that baby shoes that have a soft sole are best.  The soft baby shoes are more natural for baby.  Others believe that hard soled shoes are best and help bab...

I LOVE Italian food. When I moved from a a fairly small town in Alabama to a bigger city in Florida I was really excited about my restaurant choices. (I know that this may sound weird, but I love to eat good food.) We didn't have a good Italian restaurant in Alabama so when I had a friend tell me about Carrabba's a few days ago I was beyond excited. Carrabba's has a new promotion called Viaggi del Gusto Passports. This is a coupon booklet that comes with a few recipes and some interesting culinary history. Inside the passport you will find ...

I was really excited when I was given the opportunity to work with Macy's to spread the word on the Go Red for Women campaign that is being led by the American Heart Association. "The Go Red For Women campaign is the American Heart Association’s nationwide movement that celebrates the energy, passion and power of women to join together and wipe out heart disease, the #1 killer of American women and men."  Macy’s Go Red for Women campaign is celebrating National Wear Red Day on February 5th. How great is that? Heart disease is something...
