PositivelyProud “Make Kids Special” Review (& Giveaway Ends 10/12)

ABOUT:

PositvelyProud is a mom-created company that features a collection of products and books geared towards families supporting their children. Their mission is to “Make Kids Feel Special.” The products features all are carefully selected for its positive messages.

MY THOUGHTS:

Both of my boys are in preschool and while they don’t read yet I do send little notes with stickers on it now. When they get a little bit older, I definitely think it will be nice to put little handwritten notes in their lunches. I know when I was a kid I would have loved little notes from my mom. I love that PositivelyProud has products that make it easier and nicer for me to not only send notes to school with my kids, but just reward and encourage them in general.

I got a chance to review a variety of PostivelyProud products including:

Lunch Mail

Send your children off to school with a piece of love tucked inside their lunch, backpack or pocket. What a great feeling to discover an inspiring little greeting card from you! Each miniature pop-open card conceals a secret message of love, encouragement and self esteem hidden inside. Personalize the back with an extra dose of encouragement. Each collection contains 30 different miniature “pop-open” greeting cards. ($4.95)

These are little cardboard pieces of mail that you can personalize on the back and when your child opens it they will read a note of encouragement.  They are super adorable!  Kids can keep these too for when they need a reminder of kind words when school days get tough!

Lunch Box Letters Book

Lunch Box Letters contains 75 sheets of colorful notepaper, ready for you to tear out and use. These pages are bright and cheerful, and some have jokes and riddles – making it easier to get started. Just add a few words and tuck the finished letter into your child’s lunch box or backpack. With this book to guide you, the letter takes almost no time at all. ($8.95)

This is a book full of 75 sheets you can write notes on, like a pad of scrapbook paper, with brightly colored paper. They have fun illustrations and notes at the top like “Let’s Have Fun,” “Almost the Weekend,” and “Good Luck.”  There is even a section with notes you can use as examples and ideas.  These are about half the size of a sheet of paper and there is plenty of room to write a nice note!  I love the ideas section as it has some great note examples, since sometimes moms need a little help too! 

Positively Proud Packet

Keep these tools at your fingertips, and you’ll be prepared for any moment that calls for encouraging word or loving message. An award for a great report card. A star incentive chart to encourage a clean bedroom. A lunch mail note that contains a joke and a personalized message from you.

This packet has all the encouragement tools to make it easy for you to connect with your child and let them know that they are Special and Loved! A list of ideas on how to use the packet is included.

Rewards, Stickers, Incentive Charts, Tokens, Notepaper, Lunch Mail, Postcards, and more are all included in this Awesome Positively Proud Packet. ($14.95)

This holder has so many great items inside I don’t even know where to start!  It is perfect for rewarding any occasion or good deed!  I am using it right now for potty training and my boys get so excited to see what I will pull out – but don’t get me wrong, the rewards are not babyish.  It is the perfect size to keep in the kitchen drawer, car or where is handy spot for rewards.  There are so many great reward ideas in here that I would have never thought of!  It would even make a great teacher gift! 

Kids Table Topics To Go

 

Great questions for young, curious minds that help pass the time quickly. A most-welcomed gift for families on-the-go. Learn more about each other and cherish the memories that the answers create. You could also pop a card in your child’s lunch bag to provide something new and positive to talk about at recess or lunch. ($9.00)

Sample questions:

•would you rather see a movie, a parade, or a magic show?

•what makes you feel better when you’re sick?

•if you wanted to earn $50.00 how would you like to earn the money?

Even though my boys are not really good at conversation yet, this is great to start with as it is for ages 4 and up.  The questions are great to get kids thinking and learn more about your family in general!  There are 40 questions and at about 2×2 inches only it is a perfect set to keep in the car, kitchen drawer, purse or where you want.  I like that it comes in a case to keep all the cards together.
