win-it wednesday

Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday, with 24-hour giveaways just for you!

The Nomad Digital Paintbrush is the very first paintbrush stylus available for touchscreen devices. The Nomad Brush is the only paintbrush stylus that blends natural and conductive fibers with other highly conductive materials to make painting on digital screens feel as authentic as using canvas or watercolor paper. They work with any touch screen device and glide smoothly and effortlessly on touchscreens.

I was lucky enough to receive a few of the brushes to test out, and let me tell you, these things are SO cool! Though I was a Fine Arts major in college, I rarely have time to indulge in any artistic endeavors these days. But the Nomad Brush makes it easy and mess free! I can take a short break to “paint” any time on my iPad, and they’re perfect for kids as well — just be sure to remind them not to mash the bristles.

Three lucky Deal Seeking Mom winners will each win a Nomad Digital Paintbrush!

Meet Bailey, a dog who surprises and charms his fellow human classmates with his irrepressible antics. In this funny new book from the bestselling children’s illustrator Harry Bliss, school proves to be an unexpected place for Bailey to do all sorts of things he loves: reading, fetching, painting, digging, singing — and making friends!

Bailey was a hit with my younger children, especially my 3-year-old who is just starting preschool. He got a huge kick out of the thought of a dog going to school alongside children and loved reading about Bailey’s antics throughout the school day. The illustrations are rich and colorful, and Drew loves to page through the book to look at them all and describe what he thinks is happening.

Today, four lucky Deal Seeking Mom readers will each win a Bailey prize package, including:

• a copy of Bailey by Harry Bliss
• a Bailey Lunchbox
• a $50 Visa Cash card
  

To enter, tell me about your favorite children’s book to read with your children — or from when you were a child.
