{giveaway alert!}

I personally very much enjoy a nice chewy Fruit Roll-up®, and when I get my special custom-designed Valentine’s Day Fruit Roll-ups® on Feb. 8, 2008 (est. date of arrival dontcha know), you can bet that at least, at least, 10 of the 30 that come in the box will be having a party in my belly (jeez, too much Yo Gabba Gabba.. can you tell?) by the end of that day. They’ve not even going to make it to Valentine’s Day… though should definitely make an effort since I did make a New Year’s resolution to be healthier..

Anyway!

littleQ (my son) is just turning two years old at the beginning of next month (Feb.), and he doesn’t go to a nursery school or any set “class” that would call for the parental distribution of equally kick-butt Valentines’s Day cards/favors to each child, but when he reaches elementary school age, these FRU® rolls will definitely make a great alternative to the standard card-and-candy-hearts deal.

In the convoluted world of 1st grade politics, I would imagine that in the week following V-Day, the kid(s) giving away FRU® rolls as their Valentines would definitely get picked first in dodgeball…. or um, whatever it is your 6 1/2 year old child’s phys. ed. class is into nowadays.

FRU® rolls are fruit roll-ups® that can be customized to fit any holiday, occasion and theme… or you can just customize it with a special message for a loved one… or for yourself, lol. A great use for them would be to include your customized FRU® rolls as part of birthday and special occasion party favors. littleQ had a pretty big 1st birthday party last year, so this year we’re not going to be going all out, but for next year’s party (because it’s never too early to start planning a shindig!) I’ve already decided that these HAVE to be part of the goodie bags and favors. In my opinion, they’re so much more unique than what is usually found within your average goodie bag.

Now regarding Valentine’s Day: I know that by now you’re bound to be as intrigued by this new product as I am, and and since V-day is right around the corner, what better time to test it out than now, as a replacement for your child’s regular Valentines. It’s probably a given that your child will be jumping at the chance to design her own Valentines at the cool My Fruit Rollups® ~~website~~ Factory. To receive your order by Feb. 13, 2008, your order must be placed by Feb. 3, 2008. (Use promo code BEMINE at checkout to take $10 off your FRU® roll Valentines)
