My Son Graduated Kindergarten!!

2010-06-03T19:34:00.000-07:00

This Poem is dedicated to my 6 year old son, Logan, that graduated Kindergarten today!

All I Really Need To Know I Learned In Kindergarten
by Robert Fulghum

Most of what I really need
To know about how to live
And what to do and how to be
I learned in kindergarten.
Wisdom was not at the top
Of the graduate school mountain,
But there in the sandpile at Sunday school.
These are the things I learned:
Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.
Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush.
Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life -
Learn some and think some
And draw and paint and sing and dance
And play and work everyday some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out into the world,
Watch out for traffic,
Hold hands and stick together.
Be aware of wonder.

I Could Use A Massage!!

General Mills Reduces Sugar!!

2010-02-05T11:45:00.000-08:00

General Mills announced their commitment to further reduce sugar in cereals advertised to children under 12 to single digit grams of sugar per serving. The company has already been reducing sugar in cereals while increasing key nutrients, such as calcium and vitamin D, and providing whole grain.

The maker of Big G cereals reminds you that ready-to-eat cereal eaters consume less fat, less cholesterol and more fiber than non-cereal eaters. Cereals also deliver important vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients, making cereal a top source of key nutrients in children´s diets.

Other cereal benefits:

Ready-to-eat cereals, including presweetened cereals, account for only 5% of sugar in children´s diets.
Ready-to-eat cereal is the No. 1 source of whole grains in a child´s diet today.
More frequent cereal eaters tend to have healthier body weights and lower Body Mass Index measures.

Studies also demonstrate the benefits of eating breakfast. A 1998 study showed that children who eat breakfast tend to perform better at school. Compared to children who skip breakfast, children who eat breakfast score higher on tests, are less likely to miss class or be tardy, have fewer reported discipline problems, and make fewer trips to the office.

Right now if you visit HERE you will find a $1.00 off coupon for one of four General Mills cereals.

General Mills & My Blog Spark were extremely generous and sent me VIP coupons for General Mills Cereal. My children loved eating TRIX cereal and it does my heart good to know that it has all the vitamins and nutrients my children need with less sugar!

Thank you General Mills & My Blog Spark!!

Marshmallow Shooter Giveaway at Mommies With Cents!

2009-10-02T19:21:00.000-07:00

Hurry on over to Mommies With Cents to enter for your chance to win a Marshmallow Shooter! One type of marshmallow shooter holds 25 rounds of "ammo" (mini marshmallows). Just load it up and fire away! The best part about about these toys is that since they were designed by parents, safety was extremely important in their designs. The lung-powered blower is designed so that a child can’t inhale a marshmallow from either end. The shooters won’t blast anything that can’t compress and then regain its shape, like a rock, stick or stale marshmallow, only something soft like a marshmallow. Finally, they designed the blaster so that the air bursts out of the muzzle’s sides and not just the front, so kids can’t hurt themselves by shooting at close range.

This giveaway is open until October 8, 2009 at 11:59 pm CST to US only.
