I am so excited to be telling you more about the Little Free Library and how Jumpin Beans Blog will be working together.  If you read my earlier post - about Alpha Bits Cereal and Little Free Library, you knew something was headed this way... Now to tell you more!!!

We were sent a Little Free Library (that Marc put together for me!) and we will be putting it up soon, for the community to enjoy!    I am so lucky that I will be working with our local Harley Davidson on this!  
You see, long story short- Little Free Library is all about sharing the love of reading!  
Say you are on a road trip (or visiting friends) and your younger one needs a book to enjoy.  You can just visit the Little Free Library and see if there is one near you... Swing on by (they are in public places) and grab a book.  It is sort of like the "need a penny, take a penny / have a penny, give a penny" approach - BUT WITH BOOKS!    So, you can leave a book you finished and grab a new one... leaving it at whatever Little Free Library you find along your journey.  If you have kids that are getting older, you can take your older books there and donate them so that others may find a love of reading as well!  


The plans for our Little Free Library?  It will be geared more towards the younger kids, but that does not mean that if you have older aged books you would like to donate that we will say no, we would love them all, as we want to PROMOTE reading!
The great thing, I mentioned our local Harley Davidson Dealership.... Well, many people don't really associate kids and Harleys.. Truth be told, many people have bad images of 'bikers' and I hate to say it... but they are normally the farthest thing from the truth... Some bikers are some of the most caring and compassionate people you will ever meet.  (Keep in mind there are good and bad in ALL sorts of people!)
Well, we will be placing the Little Free Library at our local HD dealership... and the grand "reveal" will be at their kids day!  Yes.  You read that right!  They have Kids Day and for June - it is June 21st.
We would love to have you join us... and maybe grab a book - or leave a few!



WHEN:
June 21st, 2014

WHERE: 

501 Thorton Rd
Lithia Springs, Ga 

Hope to see you there!!

We would also love it if you brought a book or two to donate to make this library a huge success!!

PowerMat - Review and Giveaway

Image
Please let me go ahead and just say... I think/KNOW that the PowerMat will be one of the HOTTEST items this year! Have you heard of this? I mean, seriously! This is Awesome and I am using that since I can not think of any other way to explain it... (Are there really words that would explain something this cool?!) Okay, let me just cut to the heart of it... The PowerMat is just that... A MAT full of POWER! It is a little bit longer than an average book... Thinner than a cell phone. It looks like a skateboard (in my opinion.) and it charges 3 different technological gadgets at once! Do you know what that means? You NO LONGER need 3 cords, no more messy tangles... Just one cord to plug the mat in and you are done!!!! I was sent the PowerMat for review and I am so very impressed! The PowerMat can charge 3 different items... Marc and I have blackberries... (They can now BOTH charge on here AT THE SAME TIME!) We also have several IPods ... The docking station for the IPod can charge my...

Fire Fly Toothbrushes - #giveaway

Image
Is it a hassle to get your younger kids to brush their teeth? Broxton loves it and asks throughout the day if he can go and brush his... Now that he has a new toothbrush!!! We were sent a couple toothbrushes from Fire Fly Toothbrushes and I just love the concept! With Fire Fly, they light up! You just press the button and they light up for a solid minute. What we do here is a little system. First, Broxton brushes his teeth for the first minute. (just a teeny bit of toothpaste) Then, I brush the next minute (once again, minimal toothpaste.) Finally, he gets to brush them a final minute (no toothpaste.) The system is working and his teeth are clean! During the day, when he wants to brush them.. He can, but with no toothpaste. He really just likes the way it lights up. Doesn't hurt that the toothbrush is a hot wheels car!!! He also has one to leave at my parents house.. It is a snoopy one and lights up blue! Talk about a cool item to show the grandparents!!! Not only c...

Hurry Up! Review & Giveaway

Image
The Holidays are getting closer and closer! Some may want the days leading up to them to "Hurry Up!" So, with that in mind... I want to kick things off with a pretty cool giveaway!!!!!!! Hurry Up! The Dice Game is kicking things off for us... Check back daily to see what is in store!! Hurry Up! The Dice Game, by Random Line is a hit around here already! True enough, Marc and I did not follow the directions, exactly as we were supposed to, but that was because I did not read them all the way! In our defense, we just wanted to see how much fun it would be to prepare for when the boys are here again! (Note, it will be a big hit! I can see it already!!) This game is super fun and as the name says... Hurry Up!!!! You have 6 die and 6 challenges... One dice is blue... and that adds for lots of fun!!! You only have 30 seconds to complete the challenge... and you might think that 30 seconds is a long time, but in actuality, it is NOT as long as you need it for some challenge!!!!...
