Twitter Party Time! Win a Vacation to Orlando Florida (and more) with #DiamondResorts

It’s summer time, and we all know what that means- time to take a family vacation.  With everyone always rushing to and fro, there is no better time to take advantage of the school break (and for some, the slow down at work) and take some time together in a fun location.  Nothing like a different location to freshen your perspective and increase bonding time.

We all know that Have Sippy Will Travel extols the benefits of travel loudly and often- there is nothing like DOING for a child’s education, retention, and social skills.  Not to mention mom and dad need a minute to get out of the house now and again  🙂  Whether you travel often or only once or twice a year, make it as enjoyable as you can and spend the time you want to with your family.

That’s why we are giving away a 7-day vacation for four at Diamond Resorts International®’s Orlando Grand Beach property!  What’s not to love about that?  So head on over to the Twitter Party on 6/19/14 at 9 PM EST and join in the fun.  Make sure you RSVP to be eligible, and follow ALL the hosts and co-hosts- if we try to DM you and you are not following, we will be forced to choose a new winner, and who wants that?

The New York International Auto Show is coming upon April 17th (opening night), and I will be there to give you all the details.  I will be attending as a guest as well as attending a party with Girls Night Out, learning more about style, health and organization in cars while seeing the many new and exclusive cars on the NY Auto Show Floor.  I will be a guest of SheBuysCars, and sponsors Toyota and Dr. Oz Magazine.

Cars aren’t just for guys.  With as many road trips as we take, me and the kiddo spend a whole lot of time in the car.  As some of you may have read, late last year my Mazda and I joined the 100,000 mile club, which we are very proud of.  I keep up with it’s maintenance, regular oil changes, and am a real jerk about things like THE SECOND I hear any noise at all from the brakes, it’s in the shop.  Yes, my mechanic knows me by name, and once even came to check up on me when my car was acting up locally.  (It’s a small town, and with a car in the 100,000 mile club, I give him a lot of business, LOL.)

R&R Games Twitter Party 3/12

R&R
Got the winter blahs?  Looking for something fun to do with the kids, the family, or in your homeschooling group?  Stop by the R&R Games Twitter Party at 9 pm EST on March 12, 2014 to win games and prizes.
R&R Games is a great company that makes all sorts of games- from classic style board games to stuffed animal games (a new one for me!) they really have something for everyone and every age group.  The mission statement of R&R is to “produce high quality family board games so that we can play around all the time. Fun games. Challenging games. Big games, little games, games that climb on rocks… (Oh wait, that’s something else…) Anyway, that’s our mission.”
They have a wide variety of educational games that would be great for the classroom or homeschooling, and have won more then 30 awards (including the MENSA Select Honor) so you know they have a proven track record.  But more important?  These games are just plain fun!

This is a sponsored post as part of my being asked to host this Twitter party.  Opinions are my own.

Halloween is nearly here!  While the kids are off at school, stop by the #MonstersMixer twitter party at 11am EST to win games and gift certificates.
Monsters Mixer is not only an Ebook, but also a kids creative app.
This app is a monster builder where players can edit their own monster by choosing among plenty of different options.
Players can give their own voice to the monster by recording it, feed the monster and make it grow, play jokes like splashing a cake on his or her monster’s face, take a picture with their monster, save their favorite monsters into a photo gallery, and more.  Who says monsters need to be scary?
