We're going to take a brief break from vacation gloating and host a giveaway! Because who doesn't love a giveaway?http://www.boomkids.com/index.html
A couple of months ago, Blair offered me a free episode of Boomerang Kids, which is an audio program best described as "NPR for kids." I loaded onto my laptop, tried to talk it up a couple of times, and met resistance. So, I shelved it until we were on vacation because I knew it would be perfect rainy day material. Thursday, that rainy day came our way. The kids were busy with embroidery while it blustered outside. I quietly started playing it without saying anything. The kids listened, they pulled closer. There was talk of Michaelangelo and dinosaurs. Silly jokes, fun facts. All delivered by kids. My phone rang and I paused it. I was met with "hey! you turned it off!" and pleas to turn it back on. Despite their initial resistance, the kids were sold. Now we've signed up for the monthly new episodes. It's really that great. And I wouldn't say that if it weren't. My kids give Boomerang a double thumbs-up.
Here's where it gets even better. Three of you get to win a free episode too. Here's how to win. Go to the BoomKids site. Poke around and see what you think. I'll wait. Then come back here and leave some feedback about the site. Is it informative? Easy to navigate? What could be improved? Three commenters will be drawn for a free episode.
And here's the best part. Since I don't have to mail anything, you will get your prize promptly. It just doesn't get any better than that. So go take a look. Leave a comment. Win!
btw, I have actually mailed things out this week. Twelve Square and Busy Little Quilting Bee packages are out the door. Whee! It's amazing what can be accomplished without regular internet service.
We have actual blue sky, so it's time to head to the beach and jump some waves and find a bench. Happy Monday, friends.
