So Smart Contest!

1:42 AM, Nov. 27, 2007

This Contest is now CLOSED!

Please note the corrections below for those of
you who have already entered this contest.
I apologize for the error.

We know you love DVD's so this contest will please you!  Especially those of you who have smaller children.  So Smart Productions is sponsoring this contest and there will be SIX winners!

First, let's take a look at what you can win.

From the award-winning producers of So Smart!, King Otis DVD’s teach preschoolers important lessons through fun, imaginative, artfully animated stories--specially developed for their level of learning. With a gentler pace that allows time for contemplation and interaction, children learn about Patience, Sharing and Differences through catchy songs, and a funny cast of characters that includes Phoose, who is part fish and part moose. And the best news? Parents love King Otis too!

“King Otis provides children with a one-of-a-kind television experience that is more sensitive to their emotional needs,

and more understanding of their intellectual abilities.”  

--Alexandra Tornek, M.S., Co-Creator of the King Otis series

Winner of Parenting Magazine’s “Parenting Picks” and Dr. Toy’s 10 Best Vacation Products 

Ages 3 to 6 Years.

Our six very special winners will receive one copy of one of the following King Otis Learning DVDs (sponsors choice):

A Tale of Patience
A Tale of Difference
A Tale of Sharing

Each video is worth $16.98!

So that's six winners, receiving only 1 DVD, chosen by the sponsor.  There are two of each title so two winners will receive A Tale of Patience and so on.

You must be at least 18 years of age to enter and live in the U.S.  Read full official contest rules HERE.  Two winners will be chosen at random.  To enter all you have to do is leave a comment on this post! Don't forget to leave some way to contact you, i.e. link to your blog or e-mail address, otherwise your comment will not be included in the random drawing.  Of course we would love it if you would tell all your blogging friends!  

This contest ends Dec. 3, 2007. 

Tia Linschied
Senior Editor of HSB

One of your contest rules is "living in the U.S." - do you mean physically residing in the U.S. We are missionaries and although we do not physically reside in the U.S. we do consider ourselves still living in the U.S. Please clarify if missionaries such as ourselves are excluded. Thanks.
