Ultimate Toy Giveaway
Ho! Ho! Holla! It's time for our totally cool–dare I say "legendary"?–giveaway of our favorite playthings of the year from the massive toy guide in the November issue, on newsstands now. Each and every week through November 14th, we're sending one lucky reader home with an entire category of toys, ranging from Baby to Big-Kid. So stay tuned for your chance to win all of your child's Christmas gifts in one fell swoop!
Update: Just FYI, to win our new giveaway, don't post a comment here—click this link to enter for the amazing toddler toys.
I love this give-away because it allows us to give more than one gift to the other children (relatives) in the family whom we don't get to see very often!! We're here in California and ALL of our blood relatives with children live in Illinois. My two boys, Charison (8) & Cryton (3), love giving gifts to their cousins, writing thank you notes to each other, and talking on the phone about how they play with the toys. I love to hear how excited they get when they figure out their cousin plays the same way they do with a common toy!

My 3 year old daughter would LOVE, LOVE these! I know my two other daughters would too.

Being a great grandmother of 2 very active and lively young boys, ages 5 and 1 year, I am not up on all the great new toys. Babysitting them daily keeps me busy entertaining them. These cool toys would help greatly with that. Who ever does win will truly enjoy all the neat toys being offered. Love Parents Magazine and the goodyblog web.site.

These toys really caught my eye! The fraction teaching toy is a brilliant idea for my 7 year old son who is deaf and has a hard time learning conceps such as fractions. The medical kit is a perfect toy for my 8 year old daughter an aspiring doctor herself. Keep up the good work.

This is a really cool idea. The idea of Santa is not gone, especially during these hard times. My 2 year old daughter would just faint if she had these many toys under the tree. There are so many I could give her some on Christmas and the rest on her birthday 2 months later. I will keep watching. Thanks for this chance to make our kids eyes light up for christmas.

These would be perfect for my 2 1/2 year old for Christmas! If we win we'll be able to give him these toys for Christmas and be able to buy for our newphews this year since we weren't able to last year!

I would have one less person to shop for during the holidays/if I was picked.
Posted by: Ty | October 16, 2008 at 03:16 PM
I was thumbing threw my Parents magazine and stumbled across the goodyblog. I decided to take a peek and thought why not try my luck. I've never won a thing in my life ... and now being a mother I figured if i'm going to try my luck why not let it be something for my son. Christmas is right around the corner ... it would be great to have a few extra presents under the tree from "santa."
Good luck to all contestants ... Happy Holidays!

I got some great gift ideas from your magazine! My 4 yr. old daughter was in heaven looking at all the neat toys! Even if we don't win, I'll be scoping out these toys for our 2 yr. old and his big sister for Christmas!
Posted by: Julie | October 17, 2008 at 10:49 AM
Can't say I had any toys this cool when I was young.
Posted by: Annie VanHouten | October 17, 2008 at 12:42 PM
Hello! These toys are amazzzzing and my daughter would absolutely love these toys. She is six months old now and is getting into everything. These toys would help develop her mind and eye and hand coordination which she has a little bit of problem with right now. LOL. Anyway the point being we thank you for this opportunity and would love to, I can't stress this enough LOVE to have these toys.
Posted by: Jessica Sinclair | October 17, 2008 at 11:38 PM
Would love this giveaway i have a 2 yr old daughter and an 6yr old son i kept all his toys for her but he seems to still be a bit jealous so toys just for her would be great..( she would share them though) i also love this mag i have been reading it since i was preg with my son and he is six now so many things that are good inside of this mag. Thanks again for a chance to give my daughter some of her own mine things...

Can we say no more Christmas Shopping this year!
Posted by: Katrina | October 19, 2008 at 10:28 PM
I have a 2 year old who loves toys, and she will be sharing them with her friends and family.
Posted by: Olivia | October 20, 2008 at 12:36 AM
Wow!! That's a great bunch of toys. Perfect gifts for all the kids in my family for Christmas!!!
Posted by: Bonnie | October 23, 2008 at 08:28 AM
This would be such a wonderful gift. If we win, we would teach our two girls 1 & 2.5 what sharing means and helping others. My husband is a police officer and always have a Christmas toy bin that they hand out to needy children. I would love to teach my girls the power of a helping hand and hand out gifts to needy children. Its more important to show giving than to receiving. It would also make Christmas a little more exciting since Daddy will be at work all day, and we can bring the toys to help hand out.

I read about this in my Parents magazine & waited until Dec.1st. I had a little post-it note on my desk to remind myself. This is fun! I have never done it before. :)
