Enter to Win 4 Boxes of Lunchbox Love

Ah it is a lot more quiet around the house during the day now since your child went back to school at least a few weeks ago. Right? While we're on the subject of school I bet that if you've been sending him/her to school with lunch every day, boredom with the same-old lunch staples you pack may be setting in already.

As the mom of 4 kids born within a year, I've written about How to make creative food for kids lunch boxes before -- simple things like cutting out fun shapes + letters made with American Cheese using cookie cutters. So, I know from personal experience that keeping children's lunch boxes exciting and appetizing all year-round can definitely be challenging.

I've found a product that takes an old-fashioned concept that's perfect for today's kids from Kindergarten through 12th Grade. One that can help brighten your son or daughter's day and their lunch box. It doesn't involve food or drink, either, and you can buy them ready-made online.

Introducing Lunchbox Love by Say Please -- a series of pre-printed positive messages, love notes and trivia cards for you to surprise your kids with something new each day. Inspired by their own children and family, this unique product concept was created by moms Judi Willard and Mary Fuller who both believe that positive words can change one's day, life and eventually the world.

If I were you I wouldn't limit these clever notes to a kid's lunch box. I'd suggest keeping some on hand for those times when you just want to show them some appreciation and positive reinforcement for a job well done to kids and grownups of all ages. Perhaps you might even send one of these little cards with your child to give to their teacher at school once in awhile. Why not pop one in your hubbie's brown bag lunch each day, too, to put a smile on his face?

A huge variety of Lunchbox Love Original Lunchbox Notes are available for $2.99 each or you can save by purchasing one of the many sets to buy multiple boxes of notes at one time. In addition to Lunchbox Love Sets, choose from Lunchbox Love for Kids, Lunchbox Love for Teens, Lunchbox Love for Everyone and Seasonal Lunchbox Love. There is something for everyone here for every ocassion -- each packaged in a cute little snap-close plastic box -- including Camp, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah and more.

Toyota 100 Cars for Good - Public Invited to Vote for Non Profits to Win New Vehicles


Community



I can't believe it's been over a whole year since the 2012 Toyota 100 Cars for Good giveaway campaign wrapped up. But the 250 finalists who will have a chance to win a new car for their non-profit through Toyota's 2013 Toyota 100 Cars for Good vehicle donation program have finally been announced.

Now it's up to the public to vote and help choose the two most worthy organizations to receive new Toyota vehicles daily for the next 50 days, from October 1 through November 19, 2013. Additionally, Toyota is giving each of the three daily runner-ups a $1,000 grant to help them continue their noble efforts. So, every one of this year's 250 finalists is already a winner.

Watch this clip to learn more about how this Toyota effort is helping organizations that really need some extra help to serve the community...




Started in 2011, this corporate Toyota USA community responsibility program is now in its third year. Winning organizations get to choose between a car, SUV, mini van, and truck --ranging from the Highlander, Prius, and Sienna to a specially-equipped Sienna Mobility or Tundra. A six-year, 100,000-mile warranty is included with each vehicle prize that will be awarded.
