Grab your pencils and mark your calendars because I have some dates for you!!

From April 25th – May 1st I’ll be hosting a curriculum ‘giveaway’ of sorts here. Everyone loves to win things and giveaways are fun ~ so lets do it all together! Many of us have been {or will be} starting up our school years, and you may have come across some materials in your piles that you would like to pass along and share with another family.

This isn’t a sale, but a way to bless another family with an item {or items} that could use a new home. You can give away something on your blog and/or you can visit others giveaways and enter to win some great stuff!

To find out more, you can visit the Curriculum Clean-Out Details post ~ or read some of my responses in the comments below to better understand how it will work. If you don’t have a blog but have something you would like to give away, we will have a way for you to participate using my Blog Frog community forum! The giveaways will not start until April 25th.

Feel free to grab the html for the button up above and start spreading the news to your friends! Here’s the code:

Seeds Family Worship Giveaway

I am so very excited to be able to share this giveaway with you all!!!! Last week a package of 5 cds arrived in my mailbox from Seeds Family Worship and we have been listening to them ever since.

Can I just say I love them????

Haven’t heard of them? You can read much more about them in my full review, but let me give you a quick overview so that you know all about the fun worship cds that FIVE of you have a chance to win.

IMG_4006

It all started when a worship pastor was asked to write songs to help kids remember Bible verses during VBS…now 5 cds later, those seeds are being planted into kids hearts and being memorized. In all there are over 58 portions of Scripture set to contemporary music for you and your kids to enjoy and learn ~ and they are definitely adult friendly {trust me!!}.

There are five different cds in the series, each focusing on Scripture verses of a different theme:

~ Vol 1. Seeds of Courage
~ Vol. 2 Seeds of Faith
~ Vol. 3 Seeds of Praise
~ Vol 4 Seeds of Purpose
~ Vol 5 The Power of Encouragement

The coolest feature {well, aside from the amazing music}, when you purchase a cd from Seeds, each package actually comes with TWO cds ~ one for you and one to share with a friend. You simply tear the packaging along the perforation and share.

Which is exactly what I’m going to do with five of you!!

Ready to Win?
