Back to School The Children’s Place GC Giveaway-CLOSED

Today was the first day of school for Shaun and last week before we left on vacation we realized Shaun needed some new shorts and khaki pants for vacation and school so we headed over to The Children’s Place.

We have been shopping at The Children’s Place for years. I remember shopping at Children’s Place for Sabreena who is now 14 years old. One of the main reasons we continue to shop at Children’s Place is it’s affordable plus the styles look great. With three kids to buy for we need to stretch our dollar and we are usually able to find sweet deals on clothes at Children’s Place. Melinda and I also like the selection that they offer. Shaun is a pretty basic boy who usually wears shorts or jeans depending on the season and t shirts and long sleeve tees. Children’s Place offers a ton of different t-shirts graphics, jean colors and styles and they even have uniforms for those kids who need them for school. They also offer sneakers, coats, hat, gloves, sleepwear and backpacks. His winter coat has come from Children’s Place for the last couple year and usually lasts as long at it fits

With school back in full swing be sure to check out there clothing line up and fantastic prices on everything you need to send your kids to school in style.  Win a $25 Gift Card to start fall and school shopping. Visit The Children’s Place and tell me one of the “outfits” you particularly like.

Back to School T.J. Maxx GC Giveaway-CLOSED

School started today for Sabreena and she was beyond excited! It’s still summer here so we haven’t actually done a whole lot of school clothes shopping yet. We are headed out to T.J. Maxx next week though to check out the jeans and sneakers selection. She likes the “already been worn 100 times look” in jeans. Do you know how much those cost? T.J. Maxx has all the latest styles AND designers at normal people prices.

This season is no different. Hit up your local T.J.Maxx or Marshalls stores for the latest in denim styles such as jeggings, backpacks in the coolest colors and patterns and new fall outerwear such as faux leather bombers. It was chilly out this morning as Sabreena was waiting for the bus, she could’ve used something like that.

This season do more than shop with T.J. Maxx; help a child in need. Post a tote to your Facebook wall to help them reach their $50,000 donation goal to Save the Children. For every tote posted, T.J.Maxx will donate $1, up to $50,000, to Save the Children’s U.S. Programs, which provide early education, nutrition, physical fitness and literacy programs to children in need.

Back to School TI-Nspire Touchpad Calculator Giveaway-CLOSED

I remember when I was in high school (which was a very long time ago, LOL) and needing a scientific calculator. If I remember correctly it was a Texas Instrument; expensive and did everything but not like the new TI-Nspire with Touchpad from Texas Instrument.

We recently received the TI-Nspire with Touchpad from Texas Instrument for review and just in the nick of time because on the 30th of this month Sabreena will be starting high school and this calculator will be getting used often. The TI-Nspire with Touchpad has a ton of really cool features like Touch it and Graph it. The Touch it is an easy glide touchpad which allows it to operate like a computer with a mouse. You can install software onto your home computer which allows you to easily create, edit and transfer TI-Nspire documents between computer and handheld. With this software you can save your documents, print out documents and share TI-Nspire documents between calculator and computer – and with your teacher.

The TI-Nspire with Touchpad from Texas Instrument also has a nice selection of accessories like a rechargeable battery and in interchangeable keypads. The TI-Nspire comes with four AAA batteries but the rechargeable battery allows you to easily charge it via the wall adapter or USB to charge it through the computer. Interchange it –When you snap on the TI-84 Plus Keypad, you get all the features of the TI-84Plus – a great added value. Need one? Get it by mail at no added cost – just look on your package.

This is a really hi-tech calculator that your student should not be without. I am glad that Sabreena will be starting off high school on the right foot with the TI-Nspire with Touchpad from Texas Instrument. Win a Math Makeover Kit which includes a TI-Nspire calculator, 60 minutes Tutor.com, and other fun prizes for a student in your life. Tell me who would benefit from this “Math Makeover”

Back to School Bearpaw Shoes Giveaway-CLOSED

With the start of school comes the end of summer. Very soon we’ll have to pack up the shorts and flip flops and trade them in for scarves and jackets. Bearpaw Shoes are Sabreena and my Fall and Winter staple. I’ve literally lived in my Loki slippers and Sabreena is wearing out the toes of her classic Dream boots.

Bearpaw Shoes was founded in 2001 with the intention of providing casual, comfortable shoes using materials that made sense. Sheepskin is a natural material and regulates body temperature; keeping feet dry in the summer and warm in the winter. While most of the styles of Bearpaw Shoes look most appropriate for winter these shoes are meant to be worn all the time.

Whether shopping for the Classic Sweater or something unexpected like the Kola style with goat fur you’ll be rewarded with ultra trendy and comfortable footwear.

Win your own pair of Bearpaw Shoes(Meadow’s, Emma’s or Knit) to end your summer on the right foot! Visit the shop and tell me what OTHER pair you’d love to own.

Back to School with CLIF Kids ZBaRs and Twisted Fruit Giveaway-CLOSED

Watching what kids eat today with all of the unhealthy options available is more important then ever and with school about to start it is extremely important to send our kids to school with healthy and nutritional snacks. Clif Kid’s Organic snacks are doing just that with their ZBaR’s and Twisted Fruit. Clif Kid’s organic snacks are giving parents a healthy on the go snack that is tasty and will keep kids nourished all day.

Nationwide, the ZBaR is the number one selling kid’s snack with six awesome flavors to choose from: Chocolate Chip, Blueberry, Honey Graham, Peanut Butter, Chocolate Brownie, and S’mores. Kids love the all-natural and organic ingredients including rolled oats, chocolate chips, blueberries and more. Parents love the nutrition value; they include the right blend of protein, carbohydrates and fiber that work together to balance kids’ energy levels without crashing. And there are no processed sugars or corn syrup added.

Another great snack option is the Twisted Fruit which is the equivalent of one whole serving of fruit and is a good source of vitamin C. And they too like the ZBaR, have no processed sugars or corn syrup added. Twisted Fruit also comes is six terrific flavors: Strawberry, Grape, Mixed Berry, Pineapple, Sour Apple and Tropical Twist.

In my house the ZBaR is a hit with Shaun and Sabreena. Recently I had to take a trip to the local bike shop and while I was making my purchase Shaun spotted a section with all six flavors of the CLIF Kid Organic ZBaR’s. Needless to say he wasn’t going to let me out of the bike shop without buying a few of them which I was happy to do. Shaun likes to be like me (I eat the regular Clif Bars) and eat them while he is riding his bike. On another trip to the bike shop Sabreena spotted the same section of CLIF Kid Organic ZBaR’s Shaun did on a previous trip and again I bought a few which I was happy to do. How could I say no to a snack like these? I couldn’t!

If you are out at the grocery store or local bike shop keep an eye out for CLIF Kid Organic ZBaR’s and CLIF Kid Organic Twisted Fruit. You kids will thank you and you will be happy you picked them up. Win a supply of CLIF Kid Organic ZBaRs and CLIF Kid Organic Twisted Fruit snacks from LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too! 2 Winners will each receive a package of 2 dozen snacks.

Back to School ReadingKingdom.com Subscription Giveaway-CLOSED

Shaun is entering the 2nd grade. He’s done well in kindergarten and 2nd grade overall, he’s a really bright and outgoing kid who soaks up everything around him. Where we have some difficulty is reading; he just doesn’t want to. He loves books but he’d rather be read to than read on his own. We were given the chance to try out Reading Kingdom; a new online educational reading tool for kids ages 4-10.

Reading Kingdom is the only program that teaches all six skills a child needs for reading and writing success! A key element of the Reading Kingdom program is that all the teaching is customized to match a child’s unique abilities. Kids start the program with a Skills Survey which shows the skillset a child already has (so there is no need to waste time re-learning something that is already known).

These 6 skills are
Sequencing
Motor Skills
Sounds
Meaning
Grammar
Comprehension

Traditional reading is learned with phonics but after researching Reading Kingdom I’m wondering if maybe that is Shaun’s issue, he’s not understanding that all the rules he’s learned about sounding out letters are going to be broken. A c doesn’t always make a c sound. The breathy h sound doesn’t work with the word “hour”. Reading Kingdom is new to our household, along with a new school year. We are going to work with Shaun over the next 3 months and see the impact Reading Kingdom makes on his learning and progress.

Visit Reading Kingdom and sign up your kids for the program and let me know if it works for you. LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too! readers are able to take advantage of a 25% discount on your subscription, use promo code “LWMF25”.

We also have a full 1 year subscription, $200 value, to giveaway here at LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too! What book are you waiting to hear your child read all by themselves?

Back to School Lindsay-Phillips Scarf Giveaway-CLOSED

It’s all about fashion; well at least to teenagers. Sabreena is a cool kid with a unique style; she doesn’t take herself or others too seriously. This laid back attitude allows her to experiment with trends that I’m pretty proud of. This Lindsay-Phillips Lola Green scarf has just been added to her wardrobe (but I’m borrowing it for the cruise). At the age of 14 she will add fun accessories to her outfit to make a statement rather than trying to blend in.

Lindsay-Phillips is the woman behind SwitchFlops; the uber popular flip flops with interchangeable straps. While SwitchFlops may be the bread and butter of the business her delicate and colorful scarves really make a statement. With the addition of handbags and shoes, Lindsay-Phillips is a company women should know about.

The Lola scarf is super lightweight, but brightly colored. It’s weight makes it perfect for warm weather; don’t expect it to keep you warm in the winter.

Win a Lola scarf here at LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too! Visit Lindsay-Phillips and tell me what other item would flatter your wardrobe.

Back to School 1154 LILL Studio Design Your Own Bag Giveaway-CLOSED

The idea is simple; make handbags in lots of shapes and sizes and let the customer customize the patterns, colors and trim. 1154 LILL Studio does exactly that.

In 1999, Jennifer Velarde started 1154 LILL Studio – the original custom handbag company in her small studio apartment at 1154 W. Lill Street in Chicago. She had signed up for her first street fair and decided at the last minute to bring her fabric swatches along with her bags to take custom orders in the booth. She loved pairing fabrics, colors and textures together in interesting ways, and thought others would enjoy this creative outlet as well. She was right. Women were drawn to this unique concept and the framework for 1154 LILL Studio’s original “design your own bag” concept was born.

Today there are so many styles of handbags, totes, clutches and travel bags to choose from that no one should ever walk away empty-handed. If you’re like me and can never decide there are plenty of already designed options to choose from. Luckily we were sent an already designed LEXI from the new Links Collection. I took it out of the bag, arranged the straps as a backpack and Sabreena immediately asked if she could have it. As much as I wanted to say “NO,MINE” I couldn’t deny her, I mean she’s never really showed an interest in purses so this is officially her first handbag, and a stunning one at that. She’s going to start off her high school career in style.

1154 LILL Studio is treating a LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too! reader with a bag of their very own. Head over and Design Your Own Bag, in your comment’s leave the complete description of the item you just designed; example: Brianna, exterior Gigi’s Flowers, interior Tweetie Bird.

Back to School New Balance Fierce Trax Sneakers Giveaway-CLOSED

School will be upon us in two weeks which means new clothes and shoes for the kids. Shaun is a sneaker kind of kid so I always try to get him the most comfortable and durable pair I can because after all he is 7 years old which means he destroys everything. My first choice for Shaun is New Balance because that is all I wear and I find them to be extremely comfortable and durable. We were lucky enough to receive a pair of Kids KJ910 New Balance Fierce Trax Lace-Up Shoe in Grey/Lime for review.

I must admit the KJ910 in Grey/Lime is a slick looking sneaker. I was impressed with its look and design right out of the box and when Shaun put them on for the first time they really looked good. Shaun loved how they looked and after he put them on he ran from the living room to the kitchen. I wondered what he was doing and he said he wanted to see if they were comfortable to run in and he said they were. Not sure how much a 20 foot run is going to tell him but if they are like the other 4-5 pair of New Balance sneakers Shaun has had these are going to be perfect for him. The KJ910 have a mesh upper which will keep Shaun’s feet cool and they also have a non-marking outsole making these perfect for gym.

From the new kids’ NB Fierce Trax Collection, this aggressive cheetah-inspired running shoe features N-ergy in the heel and NB GRIP technology on the outsole, bringing you a durable, fashionable and functional treat for your child’s feet.

Another reason that I really like New Balance is because they are more then just a shoe company. They are into awesome causes like being the national sponsor of the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure for the 6th consecutive year and Girls on the Run which is a non-profit prevention program that encourages pre-teen girls to develop self-respect and healthy lifestyles through running.

Be sure to check out New Balance for your next pair of sneakers or if you just want to read about the awesome causes that New Balance is a part of.  Or win a pair of boys or girls Fierce Trax sneakers here at LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too!  Girls will get their choice of grey/purple or silver/blue (shown below) and boys will choose grey/lime green (shown above) or black/silver.  These are grade school size shoes, sizes 3.5-7.  Let us know which pair you would prefer if you won.
