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! My favorite bedtime story was probably “The Monster at the End of This Book” where Grover begs you not to turn the pages, only to find out that HE is the monster at the end of the book. I LOVED that book, it always made me giggle!

    CRIB ME!!!!

    My favorite was always “Mother Mother I Want Another!”

    The story is this:
    “Trying to get baby mouse to go to sleep, Mrs. Mouse enlists the help of her friends in response to his cries of “Mother, mother, I want another,” thinking he wants another mother, until he tells her he wants another kiss. ”

    Such a cute book!

    My all-time favorite (closely followed by Goodnight Moon) is Where the Wild Things Are. Seeing the movie previews bring back sweet memories and fuzzy feelings, but I fear actually seeing the movie will taint my love of the book.

    CRIB ME! My favorite bedtime story is “I’ll Love you Forever” about the mom and her little boy..makes me cry almost every time. There are so many good ones out there! I just hosted a baby shower for my sister and put together a My Publisher book for her with quotes from children’s books and pics of her and her husband and our entire family for her to share with the baby when he arrives. I loved looking up all of the quotes!

    My daughter’s favorites right now are Goodnight Thumper and Go Dogs Go, so those are my favorites for the moment as well. Both are short and sweet so the bedtime routine does not get too long for our little one.

    My mom had a book of bible stories that was read to her when she was a little girl. She would read a story every night to my brother and I. Now I have the book and read the stories to my children. I hope it’s as nice a memory for them as it is for me.
