***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!

Not necessarily just for bedtime, but my favorite children’s book was “The Big Orange Splot” – it’s all about decorating your house to reflect your hopes and dreams, as well as celebrating individuality :)
April Johnson says
CRIB ME!!
My favorite when I was younger was probably “The Lorax”. Now that I’m “older” I love reading Harry Potter because I can read a few chapters from any of the books and not be lost or have to choose to pick it up again.

CRIB ME, please!
We’re thinking of a number 2 and this would be a beautiful set to have.
I was a bit of an odd duck… I loved a lot of the traditional books like “the Pokey LIttle Puppy”, but it was my Mom’s old beat-up copy of “Grimm’s Fairy Tales” that I really liked. If it was Christmas time though, it was hard to pry the “Sweet Smell of Christmas” out of my hands.
Anne says
CRIB ME!!!
When I was little my two favorite books were “Goodnight Moon” and “Where the Wild Things Are.” I can’t wait to see the movie!
Tenille Gates says

Blair says
CRIB ME!
My favorite bedtime story as a child was actually a book with just pictures. My parents would make up the story as they went along, with the sound effects and all. The best part was that the story changed a little bit each time they told it!

Megan says
CRIB ME!

Sherrie says
CRIB ME, please?
What a blessing this will be to someone. Hopefully us. The timing would be amazing.
For a bedtime story I like “You are Special” by Max Lucado, but that was not around when I was young, so another one would be something from “The Giving Tree.”
lisa says
CRIB ME!! My favorite story is Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. What could be better than giant pieces of pie falling from the sky?
Lauren says
CRIB ME!

I am due this week as well! I just got back from the doctor and she said our son could come at anytime! Yay! We have a ahnd-me-down crib, but I love the one you are giving away!
I love to read Good Night Moon to my older son. He also loves any books about Elmo or Thomas the Tank Engine!
Sarah Johnson says
CRIB ME! My best friend is having a baby and needs some furniture! They have had one previous miscarriage and so it would be such a blessing for her! My favorite story- definitely Mary Poppins!
Jen B. says
Please, oh please crib me! Our kiddos really like The Cat in the Hat and Green Eggs and Ham. And though our littlest little gal seems to be in to the same rhyming tales, I’m sure she’d love a non-hand-me-down crib of her very own. I know we would!

Thanks for the opportunity to win a crib for baby #2 due in Feb!
Jocelyn says
Crib Me…I can’t think of a specific bedtime story from my childhood. Even my kids don’t have a “favorite”. They love to be read to, though…I think they like reading a book to themselves even more!!
Treva says
CRIB ME!!! I have a friend who is expecting her first baby in Feb, and my girlfriends and I are flying from around the country to help her set up the nursery around New Years. My favorite bedtime story was my Nana Ruth’s version of the Three Little Pigs, which thankfully she recorded on a cassette since she is no longer with us.
Kate says
CRIB ME! My husband and I are expecting our first child in March 2010!
My favorite bedtime story growing up was “The Berenstein Bears and the Spooky Old Tree” mostly because my dad would read it to me and he did voices, etc. and was the best bedtime story reader ever!
