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:
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.
•
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.
• 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!
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.
Jennifers last blog post..This July 4, NYC is the Best Place to Go
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!
I love getting on the swings with my kids
fidgets last blog post..Wordless Wednesday: Number 5
The swings are always fun too!
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
We like to play volleyball in the backyard.
Oh, tetherball was always fun when I was a kid. I really should find one for our backyard.
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
We like playing hopscotch.
we also draw all over the driveway with chalk
fidgets last blog post..Wordless Wednesday: Number 5
Hopscotch is another.
Oh, yes! Sidewalk chalk is a must in my household.
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
Fetch with our new furbaby.
I would love to win this prize pack! My kids love Crayola.
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
Ohh.. I used to LOVE hopscotch!
though once levi snuck (sneaked?) it inside and doodled EVERYWHERE
fidgets last blog post..Wordless Wednesday: Number 5
LOL! Oopsie, huh?
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
My pumpkin is still very small, so we play simple games like I Spy and I’m gonna get you!
Tara @ Feels like homes last blog post..Grace’s Kitchen – Cranberry Lemonade
Pushing my daughter on her wooden swing.
Another thing that my kids love to do : Bubbles!!
You can’t go wrong with bubbles.
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
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!
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.
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
I love to play hide and seek with kids outside! They are so cute about it!
Jingles last blog post..Glittery Graduation Card – Tutorial
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!!!
Our patio is cement painted red. Makes for some hellish looking works of art with the sidewalk chalk.
Danielas last blog post..A sign?
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
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!!!
oooh a red patio? That sounds pretty cool.
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
I LOVE Crayola products!!!
Jingles last blog post..Glittery Graduation Card – Tutorial
I forgot about bubbles! Grace asks us to take her outside every single day to play with bubbles.
Tara @ Feels like homes last blog post..Grace’s Kitchen – Cranberry Lemonade
Our favorite game outside is softball!!
Genas last blog post..Love is Not Selfish
We go to the Dollar Store and stock up on bubbles. They love the scented ones. Have you guys smelled those?? Grape, Cherry and Bubblegum
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
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
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!!!
Oh bubbles are awesome! My girls love them!
Genas last blog post..Love is Not Selfish
So true Tara, why is my face an angry diamond?
Cindys last blog post..It works people!!!
ROFL when I draw for my kids they always say “WHAT IS THAT?” Lil stinkers
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
I’m on it. Gravatar, here I come.
Tara @ Feels like homes last blog post..Grace’s Kitchen – Cranberry Lemonade
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.
My face is a blue vampire block! What do you think that says about me? LOL!
Jingles last blog post..Glittery Graduation Card – Tutorial
I don’t even TRY to draw!
Genas last blog post..Love is Not Selfish
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!!!
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
My brother used to have that water slide. It was so much fun!
Genas last blog post..Love is Not Selfish
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!!!
ROFL @ vampire block!
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
Do I have a picture now?
Tara @ Feels like homes last blog post..Grace’s Kitchen – Cranberry Lemonade
I was happy with a water hose when I was a kid.
Yes, I see you!
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
Yup! You have a lovely photo now instead of a monster!
Jingles last blog post..Glittery Graduation Card – Tutorial
We live across the street from the swimming pool. It’s nice!
Genas last blog post..Love is Not Selfish
LOL! I read that post and thought it said “I was happy with a water HORSE.” I was about to ask what that was??
DUH
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
Thanks for the chance to win!
Hm. I have a picture on the gravatar site, but not here.
Tara @ Feels like homes last blog post..Grace’s Kitchen – Cranberry Lemonade
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!
Jingles last blog post..Glittery Graduation Card – Tutorial
I can see your picture just fine.
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
I don’t see your picture Tara.
Genas last blog post..Love is Not Selfish
Oh.. living across from a swimming pool sounds awesome!
This is going more quickly than I expected.
Tara @ Feels like homes last blog post..Grace’s Kitchen – Cranberry Lemonade
Ooo, Jingle, cool idea!
This is definitely going quickly!
<—–needs a new pic I am tired of looking like a hand model.
Linda @ My Trendy Tykess last blog post..I’m the good neighbor
My cat is driving me crazy, just in case you all wanted to know.
Tara @ Feels like homes last blog post..Grace’s Kitchen – Cranberry Lemonade

We work with the youth group at church – you get LOTS of crazy ideas doing that! LOL!
Jingles last blog post..Glittery Graduation Card – Tutorial
We live across the street from the Tball field, park and pool. We are 4 blocks from the schools and 3 blocks from the pediatrician!

Tara @ Feels like homes last blog post..Grace’s Kitchen – Cranberry Lemonade
My fave game to play outside is “let mommy garden”. She helps me garden, but sometimes I just need her to play with the dog while I get some digging done!
Sarahs last blog post..We have butterflies!
