It's my first giveaway on my blog! I am so excited!
The lovely folks at
MomSelect sent me the second book in the Precious Girls Club series, Operation Kindness, as well as two stickers, one ink pen (pink!), and one of the new mini plush paws dogs! They also sent me a set of the same items to give away to one lucky reader of my blog!
My daughter has enjoyed reading Operation Kindness. This book is at the perfect reading level for a girl just getting into reading chapter books. The story revolves around Katie Bennett and her friends. They are trying to cheer up kids in the Shine Community Hospital and are running into many obstacles in the process, but nothing they can't overcome!
We have also been visiting the
web site quite regularly. From the site: "Girls can sign up to learn and play in a safe, wholesome environment. Girls create their own characters (or "avatars"), decorate their rooms, explore the town, socialize, play games and even shop "virtually" using the points they earn on the site. PGC games reinforce such virtues as helpfulness, kindness, responsibility, loving and caring. In addition to points, many activities award "virtual" virtue charms. And, it's all fun!" I also send "email" to my daughter there and can send her "rewards" based on her behavior in the real world, which help her earn points on the site. She loves this and I feel great about rewarding her for good behavior in this way. Points are also earned by entering codes found on Precious Girls Club products (including the books).
Some people argue that the value of being "precious" and innocent is being lost in our culture today. Little girls are growing up too fast all around us. The media seems to enjoy pointing this out! I often have trouble just going to the bookstore and finding age-appropriate books for my daughter to read that aren't all about finding a boyfriend! She's only 7 years old, for goodness sake!!!
Moms can feel confident in the fact that this is a safe, fun book their daughters will enjoy. We have been trying to find the first book in the series but with no luck. Hopefully we will find it soon! Go
