July Cookbook Giveaway: Packing up a Picnic and Simple 1-2-3 Kids

by Claire on June 30, 2012

Alright, I am changing this out a bit from last month. First, I am changing the dates around to allow me to notify the winner before announcing them, but after the giveaway is complete. The current giveaway will run from July 1st to 15th. After that, contests will run from the 16th of one month to the 15th of the next month.

Given the short time period of this giveaway, and my budget, the two books I am giving away are from Amazon's Bargin Books. This is a great reminder that books don't have to be expensive, and you can find some great deals. The next contest will be back to normal, and a sneak peek at the next two books can be found at the end of this post. But before we get to that, the two books I am giving away in this giveaway are:


Packing up a Picnic: Activities and Recipes for Kids (Acitvities for Kids)

Simple 1-2-3 Kids Recipes

Second, I wanted to make it easier for you to know how to enter. So, from here on out, there will be two ways to enter:

  1. Be a Challenge Taker by taking the Your Child's Food One Year Challenge. The Challenge Taker Winner will get their pick of the cookbooks, but will be randomly selected.
  2. By entering the Rafflecopter giveaway below. This winner will receive the other cookbook.

The titles of the books from the next giveaway are "Dinner, a Love Story" and "Twist It Up". But those will have to wait.

Over the next two weeks, I will review the cookbooks for this giveaway, and update the Win a Cookbook page with links to them.

Which book, Packing up a Picnic or Simple 1-2-3 Kids, looks more interesting to you and why?

I'd like to win PACKING UP A PICNIC because we frequently pack up picnics when we go to the playground or the beach.

Thanks Marianna,

I love this aspect of the book. While food is important for our children, so is being active. This book includes activities with every picnic, and encourages fun games.

Thanks,
Claire

About Claire

My parents raised me right. Food has enriched my life from childhood. Now that I am a mother, I am taking a one year challenge to enrich my daughter’s life through food. I invite you take this challenge with me, for your child.

When I decided to share this challenge, I decided that if a single activity was not appropriate for children 6 months to 18 years, I would break it into several sub activities, each targeting a different age group.

What are you waiting for? Take the Your Child’s Food 1 year challenge today!
