A Super Awesome GIVEAWAY, right here at The Superhero & The Princess

I am SO excited to be offering my VERY FIRST Superhero & The Princess GIVEAWAY!

ONE lucky winner will win not one, not two, but THREE prizes from three GREAT companies!

So, without further ado...here is what the lucky winner will receive...

1)

Paul from Kid Safety Band is offering my lucky winner THREE personalized bracelets!

These bracelets can be personalized with any information you choose. With THREE bracelets, you are sure to have one on your kiddo at all times! (Or if you have multiple kids, you can create one for each of them!)

We have used these bracelets since right after The Superhero was dx with T1 Diabetes.

I chose this brand for several reasons, but mainly because of the small sizing they offered and the affordable price. They were one of the only ones that went small enough to fit my little man at such a young age.

Paul created the Kid Safety Band after frantically searching for his lost child in a park. These bands can keep ANY kid safe by providing your contact information to those who find the child.

You can have 2 lines of information printed on the band. We chose to have The Superhero's name and T1 Diabetes on one side and around the other side I have my phone number as a contact. The Superhero wears his orange bracelet whenever we leave our house.

(side note: There is a warning on the site stating these are not for children under 3, as they can be a choking hazard. This is a personal choice and The Superhero has always been supervised when wearing his band.)

Here is a picture of The Superhero sporting his orange Kid Safety Band on his first day of school...

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Kid Safety Band!

2)

When we made the decision to put The Superhero on an insulin pump he was barely 2 years old. We needed to have a way to keep his pump with him and out of the way (to keep his hands off!). We were extremely fortunate enough to have been directed to KPP.

We ordered several of the toddler pump shirts with the pouch on the back. The Superhero has been wearing his since he started pumping in February 2008. He does get the choice to wear his pump in a pump pack on his waist or on his back in his KPP, and he often still chooses his tanks with the pump pocket. He and I both love that the tubing is out of the way and tucked in under his shirt.

There are items for children and also some items for adults.

The winner from this giveaway, will receive ONE item from KPP of your choice!

And, even if you don't win this giveaway, you can shop from the KPP store and know that Kangaroo Pump Pockets™ donates 2% of each sale to JDRF!

Here are a couple pictures of The Superhero sporting his KPP toddler pump shirt...(wearing 5T's, they are stretchy, so we bought them big and they have lasted and fit him well since we bought them.)

SO IN LOVE WITH KPP!

3) EVERYTHING SQUEEDLE

When I was first searching for items to giveaway I searched "Diabetes" on Etsy. One of the first sites I came across was Everything Squeedle.


Everything Squeedle's bio from Etsy...
"As a lamp work artist, I made the first Squeedle for my son who has Type I (auto-immune) Diabetes. It was just a fun little character for my son to enjoy. Who knew this would become a way to make contributions to a cure?! The octopus design evolved from the feeling that there are multiple "arms" of this disease which constantly have to be dealt with. My son didn't really see the metaphor in the octopus -- he just thought it was fun and cute! He called the little creation, "Squeedle," and the name stuck. When others wanted their own, the Squeedle© evolved into a fundraiser for Type I Diabetes research. All proceeds from sales go toward finding a cure via the Children's Diabetes Foundation of the North Bay, Inc., a non-profit which contributes to the wonderful UCSF Diabetes Center! Each individually crafted Squeedle has its own unique character."

Sue has provided me several Squeedles. I have been wearing an adorably cute periwinkle Squeedle pendant around and he is just the cutest thing!

My lucky winner will receive ONE Squeedle Lanyard (color may vary from the one shown in the link/below since each Squeedle is unique).

Isn't he cute?!

And since Sue was SO generous, I will also draw 2 RUNNERS UP in this GIVEAWAY who will each receive a Squeedle lanyard of their own!

I wish you all the best of luck!
