{GIVEAWAY} National Geographic Kids {Book Review}

National Geographic has always been a loved and trusted brand in our house as well as in my classroom! So we were thrilled when we were given the opportunity to review The Weird But True Book by National Geographic Kids! At last, all those weird but true facts my kids and students love so much are collected into a fun-filled book!

Weird But True is based on the hugely popular magazine page of quirky, fun facts that many readers of National Geographic Kids magazine turn to first.

Some of those FUN facts:

•Peanut butter can be converted into a diamond?
•The world's oldest pet goldfish lived to be 43 years old?
•The world's longest soap bubble was as long as four school buses?
•On Neptune, the wind blows up to 1,243 miles an hour?
•An elephant's tooth can weigh as much as a bowling ball?


All of the facts in this handy book just totally amaze my kids and they can't wait to share these facts with friends and family! I appreciate the adjacent pages for each fact that presents a one-paragraph explanation of how that fact is possible or why it is so. I also like how these wacky facts, fascinating information, and lively art are combined into an easy-to-browse, reference book for my little ones. We highly reccommend that you check out this fun book that is sure to give your young readers hours of fun.

GIVEAWAY:

We have a copy of Wierd but True for one lucky reader!

To Enter:

Just let me know who in your life would be thrilled to find this fun book in their Easter Basket!

New Entrees from Healthy Choice

Healthy Choice has always been a favorite of mine so I was excited when I learned that last month, Healthy Choice introduced 11 new entrées to its Café Steamers, All Natural Entrées, and Select Entrées product lines. Nutrient-rich and preservative-free, the new entrées provide even more options for those busy days when I just don't have time to prepare a meal from scratch but still want something that's delicious AND good for me.

I have always felt confident about including Healthy Choice in my diet because it is the only major brand in its category FDA-approved to call its products "healthy." To be labeled HEALTHY a meal must have low fat, low saturated fat, controlled sodium and 10% of the daily value of three beneficial nutrients.



We received a couple of the new Healthy Choice Mediterranean Inspired Café Steamers to review. Some of the new flavors include: Grilled Vegetables Mediterranean, Balsamic Garlic Chicken and Lemon Garlic Chicken & Shrimp! I love the fresh new look of the packages! With deliciously modern recipes, these meals have never tasted better. We really enjoy these new Mediterranean Inspired meals! For more information about these new entrées, visit http://www.healthychoice.com/.

We highly suggest Healthy Choice for those busy days when you want to satisfy your craving for sophisticated flavors and fresh-tasting ingredients but can't spend hours in the kitchen!

Did you know that laundry rooms are among the most frequented areas of the house for Moms? Unfortunately, they tend to also be some of the most uninspired rooms in the home when it comes to design. Luckily, Wisk® Laundry Detergent understands and wants to help!

If your laundry room is plain and boring or a downright dungeon, you just might be in desperate need of a laundry room makeover. Wisk® Laundry Detergent is teaming up with TV's Designing Spaces to pimp-out one laundry room in dire need of a face-lift as part of the Wisk® Pimp My Laundry Room video contest.

Together, they'll take your laundry room from drab to fab in no time thanks to a laundry room makeover complete with a new Whirlpool® High Efficiency (HE) washer/dryer set and a year's worth of Wisk® HE Laundry Detergent. Even better, she'll get to star in her very own episode of Designing Spaces!

The top Finalists will be featured on LaundryHE.com from April 12 - 19 and the Grand Prize Winner will be chosen by popular ballot so be sure to get your friends and family online and voting! Even better, a vote is an automatic entry to a sweepstakes for a year's supply of Wisk HE Laundry Detergent.
