Giveaway: Halloween Quality Time!

Help me celebrate my first giveaway! I believe that spending quality time with your children helps them to not only feel loved but I sincerely believe that if you spend quality time with your children they will grow with a high self esteem, do better in school and life, and your relationship will remain forever strong!

Some of the best ways to spend some quality time with your children are to 1. let them cook with you, and 2. Read, read, read to them (and with them)! Hence, my first ever giveaway!

3 people will win 1 of my 3 favorite Halloween Books: The Cheerios Halloween Playbook, Scratch and Sniff Halloween, and Touch and Feel Halloween.







To enter, just add a comment to this post by Friday, October 10th, 2008! One comment/entry per person, but if you want an extra entry you can e-mail me a favorite kids snack (with a picture) recipe to preschoolsnacks@yahoo.com, and if you want yet another entry you can post a link on your blog to this amazing giveaway (which means you write a post about the giveaway and link that way)! That's up to 3 entries per person! Wow! Good Luck!

The winners will be chosen using Random.org and posted here on Saturday, October 11th, 2008.

    I'd love to win! I would send you a fav snack of my kids, but I don't have a picture of them. I will just tell you. You don't have to enter me twice, but it is fun to share. My kids love it when I cut a hot dog (cheese at our house) in half and roll it up in a crescent roll. Bake the same way the package instructs and then serve with different things to dip in. I guess these are pigs in a blanket, of sorts.
