NOW CLOSED: Spoonful of Cheerios Giveaway Ends 5/15

May 7, 2009 By: Briana Carter

cs_spoonfuls_logo

Recently, Cheerios sent me a package of 4 cute books! My 8 year old son loves to read to his little sister. He would read to his little brother but he isn’t as into like lil sis is!

Just this past week, I was telling my kids how I used to love spending summers in the library. My mom worked there when I was younger and I would tag along in the summers and it was the best place for a book worm like me to be!

So, I was pleasantly surprised to learn about Cheerios Spoonful of Stories program. Over the past seven years, Cheerios has given away more than 35 million children’s books by distributing them inside cereal boxes for FREE and nearly $3 million to non profit First Book, which provides books to children from low-income homes.

Cheerios is also looking for potential writers for children’s books. The $2/1 Got2b Ultra Glued Styling Gel or Any Got2b Smooth Operator Product (IE) encourages unpublished up and coming children’s book authors. Entries are being accepted from now until July 15, 2009. Winner will receive a $5,000 cash price and have the opportunity to have their book reviewed by Simon & Shuster Children’s Publishing.

You may have already found “The Great Dog Wash” inside a box of Cheerios as they are in 1.5 million boxes!

In addition to the book set I received, I have a set of 4 books to giveaway to one of you!

    I am an email subscriber as well, love the blog, you’ve saved us a lot of money. My faves have to be the free magazines though, our mail box is full now too. And I recycle them by taking them to our local library where they sell them on for 50c for their charity, which goes to buying new books for the library.

  32. Rebecca says

    May 11, 2009 at 9:29 am

    great giveawy, my son loves books, his fave at the moment is anything Walle and the Giving Tree (Silverstein), he even calls a local neighbourhood tree his and asks to go and climb on there.

    We go the library all the time as well, out local library is doing reading sessions and the kids go and can get free books if they attend a certain amount.

    I honestly have two favorite books that I grew up with, and now read to my own kids.

    The first is The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein. I’m always on the edge of tears when I finish the book. One of the best stories ever.

    The second is Where The Wild Things Are. When I heard there was going to be a movie, I was all about it! I have Moeshe sitting on my bedroom dresser. If I could, I’d have every single one of the Wild Things lined up on a shelf in my room!

    It’s hard to pick just one….
    Hush, Little One will always be a fave because I read it to my baby daughter every night before she went to sleep.
    Goodnight Moon will always be a fave because whenever I read it, she would giggle at the three bears sitting in chairs.
    Llama, llama, red pajama is really fun to read out loud, so is Dinosaur Roar. Hmm, I’ll add Silly Sally to the fun-to-read-out-loud list.
    Moo, baa, la, la, la is SO funny and easy to memorize.
    We love to read!
