The contest is open to all elementary-aged and pre-school aged children. Just specify what grade level your child is. Prizes will be awarded by grade level. Where it asks for school phone/address, etc., just include your home information. The organizers of TV-Turnoff Week and Bubblegum Books work with a lot of schools, so the form is probably geared more for schools. We hope you'll be able to enter and show what makes you shine when the TV is off. Brad Hauber - Bubblegum Books Homeschoolers can definitely join in the fun too.

Let's spread the word! Summer- Great question. I have emailed Brad at Bubblegum Books to confirm, but I would think that the contest would be open to all. I will email you his answer, and post it here also, for any other interested people to read. No problem Jenny, the more the merrier! Let’s spread the word!

The rules say for elementary aged kids, but do they have to be enrolled in school to participate? Can homeschoolers join in the fun too? I'd love to pass on the info on my blog if they can!

Bubblegum Books contacted me (they got my information from your blog!) and asked if I'd be interested in a signed copy of the book for a giveaway/ review. I wanted to make sure you didn't mind first since you're the one spreading the word about all this great stuff!

It is SO nice to know that people are enjoying the blog. It makes all the hard work worthwhile and really lifts my spirits! Good luck with reducing your son's TV time. I hope you'll find some good ideas here, and I look forward to having you join in with the Unplugged Project! Hi Jeanette,
