Well, our giveaway of a $100 gift basket of MILKSHAKE goodies is wrapping up today but our MILKSHAKE news and fun is far from over!

TONIGHT at 8pm CST we are hosting a LIVE GIVEAWAY of MILKSHAKE’s PLAY! CD and Screen Play DVD  set (+$29 value!).  Now, if you have never taken part in a Live Giveaway, they are really easy and so much fun.  Basically you leave comments on the designated post as do others and you all try to reach the magic comment number that I will designate when we begin.  Basically, first one there, wins both the MILKSHAKE CD and DVD.   See, easy!  There are a few other small things to it but we will get to that tonight so set your timers and come on back then!

You know, during this month of having MILKSHAKE as our Sponsor of the Month, I have loved getting to know them better.  They do not look like your stereotypical kids music group but then, they don’t sound like the stereotypical kids group either and I think that is exactly why my older girls love them.  Far from grown up, P1 and P2 love the simple and appealing lyrics and the fun that Lisa, Mikel, Tom, and Brian bring with a rock-style tune.  P3 loves the happy, bubbly tempos.

“Kids don’t seem to have any rules for what music they like … We can write about the silliest things, and as long as we’re real and having fun, kids like it,” says Lisa.

“But we’re rock musicians, so we bring that to Milkshake — and that’s what parents like, I think: beneath the kid-friendly lyrics, the giddy world view, there’s a rock band playing. “

We first heard of MILKSHAKE on Noggin and PBS and like many of you, were immediately left wanting more.  If you live in the NorthEast, boy are you lucky because they have special appearances, concerts and F*U*N scheduled in various cities!  Check out their website for dates and times near you!  My kids will be so jealous.:)

So set your timers and see ya back here at 8pm CST!
