Yes, I could sit here all day long and debate whether or not this is criminal, and for the record, I do not condone or support this in any way, but all I can do is laugh until I cry. The expressions of the bystanders are priceless! The “squeaky shoes” part is where I absolutely lose it.
Apparently, this is called “gallon smashing”. Where do kids these days come up with this stuff?
If you have a child in school, chances are you are probably familiar with Box Tops for Education, the nation’s largest school fundraising program. To date, this program helps over 90,000 enrolled K-8 schools earn money for the things they need like computers, library books, playground equipment, and more. Thanks to Box Tops for Education, $525 million has been raised for our nation’s schools. That’s quite an impressive number!
EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS
My sons school collects Box Tops for Education and it has afforded them several extras that aren’t normally provided for in the school budget. Most recently, the school used their collected Box Tops to purchase some much needed P.E. equipment. The kids love the new equipment and I love the fact that my son is being exposed to sports we don’t normally play where we live, like field hockey.
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Collecting Box Tops is very easy. Simply look for them on the back of over 240 participating brands, like Cheerios, Pillsbury, and Kleenex. Just clip them and turn them into your school’s coordinator. This short video explains how it works.
You can also earn Box Tops for Education by shopping online at more than 250 retailers. Just sign up under your participating school at the Box Tops for Education website and help your school earn even more.
BUT WAIT!
Don’t have a school-aged child who participates in Box Tops for Education? You can still support your local schools that do. Just enter your zip code at the Box Tops for Education website to see what schools around you participate. I know for a fact that they would be grateful for any that you clip and donate or if you sign up to support them by shopping online. It’s so simple and really supports some great things going on in our schools.
You can learn more about Box Tops for Education by visiting the website and connecting with them on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube.

The past few months have brought little bundles of blessings to some of our extended family members. It’s been fun shopping for just the right baby shower gifts and spoiling the new arrivals rotten. Natural products for babies and moms make such great gifts, and Amber Pumpkin carries a full line of eco-friendly products sure to be appreciated.
Right after I had my own son, teething necklaces became all the rage. I never tried one with my son, but they seem to be such a practical thing to have on the go for a fussy little one that’s teething. The Teething Bling line of teething necklaces from Amber Pumpkin are very stylish while offering your child a safe way to teeth. Be sure to check out the teething bibs, which are super cute and a must-have for a teething child. If you’re a breastfeeding mom, they also carry a stylish line of breastfeeding necklaces to keep your child’s attention while feeding.
Amber Pumpkin also carries a few lines of natural skincare products for your baby that you can feel great about using. Little ones can have very sensitive skin, so it’s important to use the right products to avoid rashes and other unwanted skin conditions.
From the website, I’m impressed with the variety of natural products for babies and moms at Amber Pumpkin. I definitely think it’s worth checking out if you are looking for great, eco-friendly things for your baby.
