Having four children, three of which are in school, the topic of bullying and ultimately bully prevention, comes up quite often. I'm lucky in that, for the most part, my children haven't dealt with much bullying and aside from the occasional run-ins with some kids at school, they've managed to make it thus far in school without much incident. While my children may not deal with being bullied themselves very often, I do make it a point to discuss with them my expectations for them with regard to how they treat others, in our house, there's a strict Zero Tolerance Policy in place for bullying and we enforce it to the letter.
I love companies who do their part to make children's lives better and I've worked with a number of great ones lately and I'm happy to add Green Giant and their Raise a Giant campaign to that list.
About Green Giant's Raise a Giant Initiative.
I love companies who do their part to make children's lives better and I've worked with a number of great ones lately and I'm happy to add Green Giant and their Raise a Giant campaign to that list.
About Green Giant's Raise a Giant Initiative.
At Green Giant® we know it takes a lot more to raise a healthy child then just getting them to eat their vegetables. Kids these days live in a world that is bigger and scarier than the world we grew up in, and they need help and encouragement to navigate that world with confidence and pride.
Unfortunately one of the hardest things kids have to deal with is bullying. When a child is bullied by a peer it can turn his or her life into a daily gauntlet of fear and anxiety.
Unfortunately one of the hardest things kids have to deal with is bullying. When a child is bullied by a peer it can turn his or her life into a daily gauntlet of fear and anxiety.
That’s why Green Giant® is partnering with PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center and We Day Minnesota to help parents Raise A Giant and put a stop to bullying in their community.
What Does it Mean To Be A Giant?
Being a giant isn’t about being the biggest or the best. Being a giant means standing up for others. It means lending a hand to those who are in trouble and speaking up for those who sometimes find it hard to speak up for themselves.
Studies show that an effective way to stop bullying is for kids to simply speak up and say, “That’s not okay” when they see bullying happening.
But asking kids to have the courage to stand up to bullying is a tall order and that’s why they need our help.

How Do You Raise A Giant?
We’re asking parents to write a letter to their kids telling them how special they are and encouraging them to be part of the bullying prevention solution by being a giant.
To get started parents can visit our community at RaiseaGiant.com and read the letters others have written.

I took the time to write each one of my children a letter letting that know how proud I am of them for always standing up for and speaking up against bullying. I know that it may not always be as easy as writing a letter to get through to them, but I honestly believe that the simple act of letting them know in writing, not only how proud I am of them, but how important it is to be the voice for those who can't speak for themselves, will go a long way. I encourage each of you to write a letter to your child(ren) letting them know how proud you are of them and how important it is for them to be a giant!
For this campaign a $25 donation was made in my name to the Pacer’s Center for Bully Prevention and I can't think of a better incentive to be part of a campaign!
WIN IT!

My kids eat…a lot. And if there’s one thing they eat more of than anything else, it’s cereal. Not only do my kiddos enjoy a big ole bowl of crunchy cereal goodness every morning (and more often than not as a bedtime snack), but my husband is also a huge cereal fanatic. It seems like I’m constantly buying cereal and we’re always trying something new, like recently when we had the chance to check out Hershey’s new Cookies ‘n’ Crème cereal thanks to Hershey’s and MyBlogSpark!
I’m not a huge cereal fan, but I do love me some Hershey’s so I was interested to see what this new cookies ‘n’ crème cereal was all about, here’s the scoop (haha) on Big G and Hershey’s new breakfast offering…
Who knew yummy could also be full of so many good things for you? As I mentioned above, my children and husband love cereal and since they do love their cereal, they’re also a little picky when it comes to what they pour into their favorite cereal bowls (yes, they all do have a favorite cereal bowl). I knew that the chances of my family not liking a cereal from Hershey’s was slim to none, but I wasn’t prepared for them to like it as much as they did…they demolished the entire box by breakfast the next morning! They LOVED it! My husband, who is one of the pickiest people I know (especially when it comes to his cereal) liked it so much that he now asks for it nearly every time I go to the grocery store, I’d say that’s a success! If you’re family are big cereal eaters then I definitely suggest picking up a box (or 3) of Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Crème next time you head out to the store, they’ll be so happy that you did!
If you’d like to try Hershey’s new Cookies ‘n’ Crème cereal for yourself, keep reading and find out how you can win the Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Crème prize pack below! And don’t forget to “Like” General Mills on Facebook and Follow @GeneralMills on Twitter. And don't forget to grab a coupon for $1.10 off of one box of Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme cereal...great coupon for a great cereal!

One of the hardest decisions that I have to make on a daily basis is what to have for dinner, most of the time it’s not even an issue of “what do I want?” it’s more of an “I’m not even sure where to start” kinda thing—I’m sure I’m not alone in this!

I received two different varieties of Progresso Recipe Starters; Creamy Parmesan Basil and Creamy Roasted Garlic with Chicken Stock as well as a few other goodies, including a very helpful recipe booklet, to help me turn a busy week night meal into something special.

My kids love yogurt—they could seriously eat it every single day and never get tired of eating it and their absolute favorite is Yoplait Trix yogurt!

I’ve mentioned before how much my whole family loves cereal and while they would eat cereal for breakfast, lunch, dinner they often choose cereal’s that are too sugary sweet for my liking. That’s why one of my top picks for cereal for my kids is and always has been Kix! 
Kix was actually one of the very first finger foods that all of my children ate; between the sweet (but not too sweet) taste and the fact that it’s made with whole grain corn and loaded with Iron Kix seems like a natural choice to me! I love that my children love eating it and I feel good that I’m giving them a cereal that’s packed with lots of stuff that’s good for them—it’s a win-win!
Kix Cereal is proud to say they are still kid-tested, mother-approved®. This go-to favorite is made with whole grain corn and is an excellent source of iron. It also is a good source of calcium, fiber, and Vitamins C and D, providing your family a wholesome breakfast with nutrients they need to grow.
With slightly sweetened and fun-to-eat, crunchy corn balls, Kix cereal eliminates the need for silly airplane noises to land the first bite. Low in sugar and with no artificial color, flavors or preservatives, Kix cereal brings the same great taste kids have loved for more than 70 years to the table.
Visit Kix online for background history, nutritional content, and special offers. We hope you’ll join in on the conversation and tell us why Kix cereal is “approved” in your household! You can visit the Kix website for more information about Kix how great of a choice Kix is for your household!
We recently received all kinds of Kix goodness (6 boxes of Kix goodness to be exact) at our house thanks to General Mills through MyBlogSpark and one very lucky winner is going to receive a prize pack of the same!

If you’re a parent (and even if you’re not) you probably know all about the Box Tops 4 Education program. Well, starting this month you can head over to Walmart and find over 70 products that each have 4 Box Tops…all of those extra Box Tops will definitely go a long way for your child’s school this coming school year!
Whether you’re shopping for a summer barbeque or gearing up for back-to-school, Walmart makes it easier for you to find everything for every list. And while you stock up on your family’s favorites, don’t forget you can earn cash for the participating school of your choice with Box Tops for Education products.

I was given a $25 gift card from Walmart through MyBlogSpark to head over to my local Walmart and stock up on some much needed products and I was surprised by how many products I found that offered bonus Box Tops! I picked up some of my kiddos favorite General Mills brands including Cheerios and some Yoplait yogurt and started my Box Top collection for this school year. I have to admit, it feels great to be able to give my family the brands that they know and love and still be able to help out their schools at the same time!

I love playing games with my kids, but with the internet, cell phones, and PS3 at their disposal its not often that we get to enjoy a good old fashion board game. For me, watching my children play games that I grew up playing brings me a sense of nostalgia, I love that they enjoy some of the same things I did when I was their age. Candy Land has always been one of my favorite games, and it is so cool to watch my kids playing the same game all these years later. I remember playing Candy Land with my sister (and always letting her win…or maybe it was the other way around) and now I sit and watch as my kids accuse each other of cheating or stealing their turn…I guess some things never change!
Sundae bar complete with enough candy to cause a major sugar rush!
Her perfect sundae included gummy worms and chocolate syrup!
Does it get any better than ice cream?
This past weekend we had the opportunity to host a Candy Land party! With Halloween (and Trick-or-Treat) this weekend as well some of our guests were no shows, but the kids were troopers and had a blast regardless! We decided that the best way to celebrate a Candy Land party was with LOTS of candy…so we set up a Sundae bar complete with all of the candy toppings a kid could want! I had a few reservations about all of the candy, especially since Trick-or-Treat was the same night, but I figured…ah what the heck…they deserve to have a little fun after all it was a Candy Land party!
Time to play!
Even the babies got in on the act!
Guess what? I have a Candy Land game to give away to one of y’all! And FYI this would make a great Christmas gift for a little lady or gent!
Win it: Mandatory Entry!
