***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
In honor of our new nephew’s arrival this week (he’s scheduled to come via C-section on Wednesday!) we’ve got the mother of all baby-themed giveaways courtesy of LaJobi Industries. They’re the makers of stylish baby and youth furniture and this week they’re giving away an eco-friendly crib and crib mattress to one lucky parent (or parent-to-be).
The Dakota crib by Graco is their first environmentally friendly crib – it’s made from sustainable woods, the dark walnut finish is water based and all the packaging comes from recycled materials. Plus, it looks pretty darn good. You can read all the nitty-gritty details about it on Walmart.com, since they’re the exclusive retailer of the Dakota line (which also includes a changing table).
But an eco-friendly crib wouldn’t be complete without an eco-friendly mattress to pair it with. So LaJobi is throwing in a Serta Nightstar Eco Firm mattress, which is made from organic cotton layers. Together that’s a $330 package that should help both you and your baby sleep better!
- PRIZE: LaJobi’s Eco-Friendly Dakota Classic Crib by Graco and Serta Nighstar Eco Firm Crib & Toddler Mattress
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “CRIB ME” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …tell us what your favorite bedtime story is. Is it a classic like “Goodnight Moon”- or something more progressive like “Captain Underpants?”
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 21st at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: USA only
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

How perfect this crib would be…we’re expecting our first baby November 13th. We have a bassinet, but no crib. Although there is not much text, I’ve always loved “Pat the Bunny” I’ll definately be buying one for our new baby.

I remember my grandmother teaching me the Lord’s Prayer when I stayed with her. We would recite it together before I went to sleep every night.
Christina says
Crib me!! I would love a stylish crib like that!
In our house we don’t do goodnight books but rather we sing songs together before saying our goodnight prayers. Our 3 year old has all the songs down pat and now insists on singing them by herself. Too cute.

Ashley H. says
** CRIB ME! PLEASE :) **
Hello Young House Love and LaJobi Industries!
My husband and I love following your blog as we have been designing our first home and first nursery!
My favorite bedtime story is “The Little House” by Virginia Lee Burton.
I love “The Little House” book because it is a classic story about a pretty Little House built in the county that is later surrounded by the tall buildings of the city. The story draws you in by the whimsical, detailed drawings. Readers are saddened to see the Little House become broken and not so pretty, but are happy in the end when a woman whisks her back to the country to be renovated. The story also communicates awareness to Burtons implied troubling effects of urbanization.
This book inspired me to become the designer I am today and helped me appreciate our environment and sustainable practices.
Sincerely,
Ashley H.

Kristina Deutsch-Brown says
CRIB ME! (I almost typed “crim be”!) My husband and I are trying to conceive, and I’d soooo love to start a nursery as “green” as possible! With no children yet, I don’t think I’ve EVER read a bedtime story! (And I don’t remember any that I may have been read, as a child.)
