Crayola LIVE Giveaway!ENDED

by Shannan on May 15, 2009

As I posted in yesterday’s review, Crayola is challenging families everywhere to get out side everyday this summer with their Outdoor Challenge. Since Crayola gave me two prize packs to give away, I thought it would be fun to have a live giveaway for one! So here we go!

First, here is what you’re fighting for:

crayons

Sidewalk Crayons offer kids more than pretty pastels to create outdoor masterpieces. Once reserved for bringing coloring books to life, this new technology offers the richest, brightest, boldest colors for creating extraordinary outdoor artwork. The difference is striking, as the smooth, creamy colors lay down on driveways and sidewalks with unmatched brightness. For children 4 and up, suggested retail price is $4.99 for a set of 15 colors.

rake

The Rainbow Rake is a fun new way to create chalk messages and designs! Kids can adjust the arms for close lines or far-apart lines; use the rake to write giant messages and draw swirling, swooping lines! For children 4 and up, suggested retail price is $11.99 for one rake and 5 pieces of chalk.

3dkit

• Kids can watch their art come to life with the 3D Jungle Safari Activity Set. Create a jungle safari, put on the 3D glasses and kids will feel like they are in the jungle! The set includes 1 bottle of sidewalk paint (7 fl. oz.), a paint brush, 1 pair of 3D glasses, 8 dual-ended sidewalk chalk sticks, 4 giant stencils and 1 how-to book. For children 6 and up, the suggested retail price is $13.99.

These have been a huge hit at my house, as you can see from my prior review! Don’t forget to head over there and enter if you aren’t today’s winner!

Now for the fun stuff!

The rules are simple! For your first comment, tell me about your favorite game to play with your kids outdoors. For subsequent comments, you can say whatever you want, BUT anyone with back-to-back comments will be disqualified. Make sure someone else has left a comment before you say something else!! Whoever ends up being comment number 73 is the winner!

Are we ready? Let’s GO!!

LIVE GIVEAWAY has ended! Comments now closed!

My baby is a little too young for outside games, but as a kid, I loved to play freeze tag!

2 Jennifer May 15, 2009 at 12:25 pm

My favorite game to play with my kids is, “Who can knock the ball back out of the tree first.” Well. It MUST be my favorite, since we spend so much time at it when we’re in our yard.

We have been playing a lot of dodgeball lately. The kids seem to enjoy that. (Or maybe they like to see my fat tail running around looking crazy.) Either way….they like it!

4 fidget May 15, 2009 at 12:26 pm

I love getting on the swings with my kids

fidgets last blog post..Wordless Wednesday: Number 5

5 Linda @ My Trendy Tykes May 15, 2009 at 12:27 pm

The swings are always fun too!

6 Daniela May 15, 2009 at 12:28 pm

We like to play volleyball in the backyard.

7 Linda @ My Trendy Tykes May 15, 2009 at 12:29 pm

Oh, tetherball was always fun when I was a kid. I really should find one for our backyard.

8 judy brittle May 15, 2009 at 12:29 pm

We like playing hopscotch.

9 fidget May 15, 2009 at 12:30 pm

fidgets last blog post..Wordless Wednesday: Number 5

10 Daniela May 15, 2009 at 12:30 pm

Hopscotch is another.

11 Linda @ My Trendy Tykes May 15, 2009 at 12:31 pm

Oh, yes! Sidewalk chalk is a must in my household.

Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor

12 Daniela May 15, 2009 at 12:32 pm

15 fidget May 15, 2009 at 12:34 pm

You can’t go wrong with bubbles.

Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor

20 Joy Smith May 15, 2009 at 12:38 pm

What was once a pool is now a giant sandbox and we’ll go outside and play in it. The kids really love using sidewalk chalk to draw pictures. We have nearly an entire backyard dedicated to cement.lol

Joy Smiths last blog post..Tuxedos and premenopause. What a great combination!

21 Tara @ Feels like home May 15, 2009 at 12:39 pm

She is starting to draw, so I think this will be a fun year for sidewalk chalk. We don’t have a sidewalk, but we have a paved driveway. It will be fun.

22 Linda @ My Trendy Tykes May 15, 2009 at 12:39 pm

I just re-posted the giveaway on Twitter. Maybe we will get some more peeps over here to bump these comments up.

Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor

23 Jingle May 15, 2009 at 12:39 pm

I love to play hide and seek with kids outside! They are so cute about it!

Jingles last blog post..Glittery Graduation Card – Tutorial

24 Cindy May 15, 2009 at 12:40 pm

We play with rolley poley’s outside, especially with the rain and all the bugs/worms that have come out to play, my 2 year old thinks that those little rolley bugs are the greatest!

Cindys last blog post..It works people!!!

25 Daniela May 15, 2009 at 12:40 pm

Our patio is cement painted red. Makes for some hellish looking works of art with the sidewalk chalk. :)

Danielas last blog post..A sign?

26 Linda @ My Trendy Tykes May 15, 2009 at 12:40 pm

DIRT…..All kids love to dig in the dirt, right?
My kids make all kinds of mud pies and dirt creations.

Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor

27 Cindy May 15, 2009 at 12:41 pm

We also play in the play kitchen outside like its a fast food drive thru. Does that mean we visit those too much??? probably.

Cindys last blog post..It works people!!!

28 Linda @ My Trendy Tykes May 15, 2009 at 12:41 pm

Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor

33 Tara @ Feels like home May 15, 2009 at 12:42 pm

I need to go get myself a picture. I’m not enjoying this little blue guy as my face.

Tara @ Feels like homes last blog post..Grace’s Kitchen – Cranberry Lemonade

34 Cindy May 15, 2009 at 12:42 pm

We like sidewalk chalk, but my 2 yr old demands that I draw while she dictates what color, shape, and animal that I am supposed to design. Bossy lil thing!

Cindys last blog post..It works people!!!

35 Gena May 15, 2009 at 12:43 pm

Oh bubbles are awesome! My girls love them!

Genas last blog post..Love is Not Selfish

36 Cindy May 15, 2009 at 12:43 pm

39 Daniela May 15, 2009 at 12:44 pm

I plan on buying a slip n slide this weekend. I wish we had a privacy fence so I could do some slippin’ n slidin’ without freaking the neighbors out. :)

40 Jingle May 15, 2009 at 12:44 pm

My face is a blue vampire block! What do you think that says about me? LOL!

Jingles last blog post..Glittery Graduation Card – Tutorial

41 Gena May 15, 2009 at 12:45 pm

I don’t even TRY to draw!

Genas last blog post..Love is Not Selfish

42 Cindy May 15, 2009 at 12:45 pm

Why do I cringe at earthworms now that I’m 28, and when I was 7 I thought they were the coolest thing in the world?

Cindys last blog post..It works people!!!

43 Linda @ My Trendy Tykes May 15, 2009 at 12:45 pm

We were so close to buying that Banzai water slide (The huge one). I just couldn’t bring myself to spend $349 though. The kids would have loved it though.

Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor

44 Gena May 15, 2009 at 12:46 pm

My brother used to have that water slide. It was so much fun!

Genas last blog post..Love is Not Selfish

45 Cindy May 15, 2009 at 12:47 pm

HA HA HA.. Jingle, the blue vampire block face is my favorite- hilarious! Has anyone else tried to do a slip n slide now that they’re older? Kinda hurts! Why was it so fun when I was little?

Cindys last blog post..It works people!!!

46 Linda @ My Trendy Tykes May 15, 2009 at 12:47 pm

55 Jingle May 15, 2009 at 12:49 pm

YES! Cindy – splip and slides are super painful! But you can make an ‘adult’ sized one with trash bags and throw teens down them! They love it! Add some gross stuff like pudding and jello and they are in heaven! LOL!
