Lunchables: Never Be Bored Again ~ Giveaway

There are few phrases in a child’s vocabulary that make a parent cringe more than the “I’m-bored” whine. (Matched only by its counterpart “Are we there yet?”) In a house full of toys and neighborhood full of playmates, it’s hard to imagine how a kid could possibly get bored.

But before jumping to rash responses, “You’re bored kid? No problem, mommy will give you a load of laundry to do!” we as parents have to teach kids how to play. No, not how to use another new toy, but how to use their imaginations to play with things they have (or around the house); how to fulfill their own sense of wonder and entertain themselves. It is a learned skill that helps make for a well-rounded and fun child.

To fight boredom and encourage children to actively play, Tori Spelling has teamed up with Lunchables to launch the Never Be Bored Again campaign. This campaign seeks to celebrate boredom-busting activities and provide up to $100,000 to Boys & Girls Clubs of America for their sport and recreation programs.

Lunchables Never Bored Again

Lunchables invites families to capture photos of boredom-busting activities and share them by visiting the “Never Be Bored Again” application at Facebook.com/Lunchables.  Every photo that’s uploaded from today through October 15, 2012, will generate a $1 donation to Boys & Girls Clubs across America, up to $100,000, to help amp up the fun.  In addition to making a donation on behalf of each photo uploaded, customers will also receive a $1-off coupon for new Lunchables with Smoothies.

Lunchables Smoothie

I remember eating Lunchables when I was a kid. It didn’t happen often, but when it did it was a treat. Today Lunchables has introduced fruit to the meal in the form of a CHIQUITA® Strawberry Banana Smoothie. The new smoothie addition accompanies three Lunchable varieties:

  • NEW Chicken Strips with CHIQUITA® Strawberry Banana Smoothie and Double Stuf OREO Cookies
  • NEW Deep Dish Pizza with Pepperoni, CHIQUITA® Strawberry Banana Smoothie and Chewy Chips Ahoy! Cookies
  • NEW Turkey and Cheddar Sub Sandwich with CHIQUITA® Strawberry Banana Smoothie and Double Stuf OREO Cookies.

In addition to being about to help the BGCA with a donation made for uploading your photo via the Facebook app, kids ages 6-13 can also enter to instantly win one of more than a million boredom-busting prizes on the Lunchables website. (Yes a million prizes!) Prizes include 25,000 Hasbro™ toys and games and 1,000,000 video downloads plus the three grand prizes are mega-cool hangout spots; a Tree House of You Dreams, a Sport Court® backyard court or an Ultimate Game Room.

So if you are ready to encourage some good-old-fashion playtime fun head over to the Lunchables Facebook page to upload your boredom-busting photo to have $1 donated BGCA on your behalf and snag a $1 off coupon. Then help your kids enter the instant win contest.

    usuaully the standard ham or turkey/cheese and crackers – but its usually the “snack” that makes the final decision! They are going to love the smoothie!

    CJ is not a big meat eater – his favorite thing is fruit. I think he’d like the Lunchables with Fruit Grape PB&J sandwich on flatbread.

    My kids would probably like the Lunchables with Fruit – Grape PB&J Flatbread Sandwich. (Providing there are no tree nut allergy warnings. 😉 )

    We actually like the Bologna ones the best, but nobody in the house will eat a bologna sandwich if I buy a package of Oscar Meyer bologna. Weird huh?

    Nothing to do with it, but seriously the system to win prizes online from lunchables.com/kids never be bored again sucks! tells me over and over I’m not eligible when obviously my child is. Would not try it if not.
