Fab Freebie: Crib Your Enthusiasm

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

In honor of our new nephew’s arrival this week (he’s scheduled to come via C-section on Wednesday!) we’ve got the mother of all baby-themed giveaways courtesy of LaJobi Industries. They’re the makers of stylish baby and youth furniture and this week they’re giving away an eco-friendly crib and crib mattress to one lucky parent (or parent-to-be).

LaJobi Crib

The Dakota crib by Graco is their first environmentally friendly crib – it’s made from sustainable woods, the dark walnut finish is water based and all the packaging comes from recycled materials. Plus, it looks pretty darn good. You can read all the nitty-gritty details about it on Walmart.com, since they’re the exclusive retailer of the Dakota line (which also includes a changing table).

LaJobi Mattress

But an eco-friendly crib wouldn’t be complete without an eco-friendly mattress to pair it with. So LaJobi is throwing in a Serta Nightstar Eco Firm mattress, which is made from organic cotton layers. Together that’s a $330 package that should help both you and your baby sleep better!

  • PRIZE: LaJobi’s Eco-Friendly Dakota Classic Crib by Graco and Serta Nighstar Eco Firm Crib & Toddler Mattress
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “CRIB ME” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …tell us what your favorite bedtime story is. Is it a classic like “Goodnight Moon”- or something more progressive like “Captain Underpants?”
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 21st at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: USA only
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    Crib Me!!!

    Our favorite bedtime book to read to our son is “I Love you, Goodnight”. It’s a book about all the cute and creative ways to say I love you. So now my husband and I tease each other…instead of just saying “I love you” we say something like “I love you like I love blueberry pancakes”! Ha…it’s a pretty cute book. :)

    CRIB ME! We’re having twins within this next month and this new crib would be fantastic!

    Around here, we like “Little Pea,” the story of a little pea who has to eat all his candy before he’s allowed to have his spinach.

    As a kid, I loved the Barbapapas. It seemed very practical to build a house using their pear-shaped bulbous bodies.

    And a big CONGRATS to you and your growing fam!

    My favorite bedtime stories are not written out in books. My grandfather used to make up the most fascinating stories and tell them to us when we were growing up. We’d asked him a million times to write them down, but he never did. They were great and a fond memory of my childhood!

    CRIB ME! Zip ties are strong, but should I trust them to hold together the crib?The best bed-time story ever, the one we read a minimum of twice a day, is “The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear.” I have it memorized, and the kiddos have their little actions that come out every time we read it. Something about never actually seeing the bear has them (and me) hooked. Plus, his little strawberry hull hat on the last page is priceless.
