Giveaway: Complete Birthday Party from Milk+Bookies!

Bookies Box Giveaway 764x1024 Giveaway: Complete Birthday Party from Milk+Bookies!

Milk & Bookies is a truly amazing charitable organization that I am honored to support! At Milk + Bookies events, boys and girls are provided the opportunity to select, purchase and inscribe books that are then donated to their peers who do not have access to books of their own. The fun-filled events feature music, story time and, of course, milk and cookies. Milk+Bookies combines two essential and worthwhile efforts: literacy promotion and service learning. While book donations are imperative to their mission, just as important is instilling the seed of giving into each host and their young guests, sparking feelings of importance, self-confidence and the desire to give and give again.

An M+B Birthday party is a wonderful idea for parents looking for an alternative for their child’s special day. This type of birthday party is a wonderful way to celebrate with family and give back, exposing your child and their friends to an experience where they can help other children, while still having a great, fun party to honor their birthday.

This M+B Birthday Party giveaway includes everything you need to throw a fun and rewarding party for your tot:

  • Milk+Bookies Bookies Box (includes a party how-to,  ”I donated” stickers, book plates for inscriptions and bookmarks, and balloons of course)
  • Cocodot 1 year membership which gives you access to our Milk+Bookies online invitation and thank you notes
  • 2 Milk+Bookies baseball t-shirts
  • 1 set of Milk+Bookies branded pins for your guests
  • 2 copies of Sweet Pete (the new Milk+Bookies children’s book about giving)
  • 2 Sweet Pete Lollipops
  • 1 exclusive Milk+Bookies/Yo Gabba Gabba! Case Mate for i-phone
  • $100 gift certificate to CPK to bring in food for the party!

      Wow, I have never heard of this. I have been looking for ideas for my daughters fourth birthday and this would be perfect. It is something that would work since there will be kids of various ages attending. I would love to win but even if I don’t I will be using this party idea!
