Review and Giveaway: Shushybye

This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations, Debbie!

I was reading posts on The Product Review Place one day when I saw a notice requesting reviewers of a new book intended to help young children look forward to bedtime. You only have to look at my goal posts from last year to know that bedtime at our house can be an ordeal, and while I was a little dubious as to much how green, purple, and orange creatures could help I figured it wouldn’t hurt to try.

We were sent a copy of the book (which comes with a CD of the book being read out loud and a couple of songs), as well as the new “Close Your Eyes” CD by the Shushybye band (see cover photo below). Emma enjoyed the book, and has asked to listen to it with the CD and for me to read it aloud several times since we first received it. The book makes me feel sleepy, which might be appropriate for a bedtime story. And bedtime at our house has been going smoothly, for a change.

The biggest hit, however is the band CD – although it does NOT help the kids sleep! Emma asks me to put it on so she can dance around the living room! I don’t mind – the music is fun, and it’s a good way to get Emma up and moving.

I’m hosting a giveaway of the “Shushybye Sleepover Surprise” book with CD and the “Close Your Eyes” CD for one of my readers with an address in the US or Canada. To enter, visit www.Shushybye.com and tell me one thing you found interesting on the site (mandatory entry). You can get extra entries by sharing your favorite bedtime tip (one entry), following this blog (one entry), or subscribing to this blog via email (one entry). This giveaway ends March 22nd at 9am US Eastern Time, and a winner will be drawn using random.org. Please make sure you include a valid email address in your comment form so I have a way of contacting you if you win.
