   I wrote, one week ago, about a giveaway that will be hosted here at BlogFully starting tomorrow. This giveaway is amazing! It will feature some cool characters and a prize pack every day for five whole days.

I just wanted to take a moment and share some information on why this is going on and share my thoughts on the products I received. I know that once tomorrow begins, I won’t have the time to fill you with stories and cover details on the products at the same time. This will be more of the detailed post for the back bone of this giveaway’s festivities.

Let’s begin…

First off, as I told you in a previous post not long ago: General Mills, Target and Chorion have teamed together to create 5 limited edition Cereal boxes, with iron-on transfers, that will each feature a different character from the Mr. MEN Show. Now this, my friends, is where the 5Days-5Prize Packs-5Winners week comes from.

The MR MEN Show;  In case you’re not aware of and/or have never heard of them (this is a 30 year old show by the way); I found some information on the Parent’s page I’d like to share with you.

It states, “Every Show is developed around a familiar theme, selected for its appeal and/or relevance to the lives of young children. Whether it’s a birthday, a day at the beach or a trip to an amusement park, the Narrator sets the scene at the open of each show for the unfolding series of events. The use of themes as organizing principles is a recognized “best practice” in good early childhood programs.”  More details can be read by clicking on the Parent’s Page above.

At the MR MEN show official site; you’ll find animated shorts for every character, games and FREE STUFF. If you have a moment, head over to the Official Website and check it out!

Now, General Mills, Chorion and Target teamed up to showcase these wonderful characters on 5 specially marked- special edition cereal boxes from Oct. 4^th (today) to Oct. 17^th. You’ll be able to find these iron-on characters on the boxes of Cocoa Puffs, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Honey Nut Cheerios, Cookie Crisp and Lucky Charms!

 I received every single box of these great cereal boxes (yes, cereal was included. This was great because every member of my family had their favorite (LOL). I’m in love with Honey Nut Cheerios, Piper loves Lucky Charms, Patience loves Cocoa Puffs, CJ loves Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Dad- well…he loves all of them so we let him claim the Cookie Crisp. I don’t understand though; why he ended up not getting a single bowl out of the box (OOPS!!! Sorry Dad).

The boxes were so cool. Each of them had the iron-on right on the outside of the box’s back. I’ve showed an example…I thought it was so cool how all you have to do is cut it out, place it on your shirt and iron. Just a note though; you have to put a paper towel in your shirt to prevent the picture from going through material. It was very easy and fun to do. The end result was amazing; again, I’ve included a shirt for the character my son picked out. The shirt was awesome and he received tons of praise for the shirt at school from friends.

The MR BUMP medical kit was so neat. It has everything your child needs to pretend they’re a doctor and that is exactly what my girls did. They even played with Mr. Bump- he was the sick patient. When they were done playing; they simply put everything away in-well- MR Bump who acts as a carrying case too. It is a very multi-functional toy and something that I really enjoyed watching the kids with.

The gift card was actually used for my daughter since it was her 8^th birthday. She was able to get what she wanted since everything in the prize pack I received was enough for everyone.

The T-shirt we gave to my daughter fit perfectly. She loved how bright and playful it looked and said it was the coolest shirt she had- Thank you, Thank you for every single item we received. It was all put to good use, everyone received something they wanted and the iron-on transfers are simply perfect for anyone, no matter what age you are!

Last, but certainly not least- Little Miss Chatterbox’s Over-the-top Big Top book; whether you’re young or old, you will love this book. The circus has come to Dillydale and Ringmaster Little Miss Chatterbox is at the center of it all…follow the characters in this amazing book that is sure to make you roll with laughter! We loved it!

Now, before the giveaways get underway tomorrow, I’d like to give you an FYI:

 You are welcome to enter every day of the week and you can earn extra entries as well. I will be using a random generator to pick each winner and I will contact them (as well as a little plug-in on the next day’s post)…

Please, just remember to read the question everyday so that you know how to enter. It’s going to be fun, exciting and I’m sure we’re all going to learn a few things about each other.

So, this is it for now, I hope you enjoyed my pictures, review and information on this great event. Feel free to come back every day and good luck to all!!!!! Oh, and most of all- HAVE FUN!!!!
