It is Tuesday and I am having a give-away blow-out this week. Kind of a count down until Thanksgiving to show how thankful I am for all my readers!
Today's give-away is thanks to a company called
Peter Rabbit...Naturally Better!
Peter Rabbit...Naturally Better!
This is super cool because not only is it the classic Peter Rabbit (and book) that EVERYBODY loves to give to a new arrival, it is also "Green!" That's right - this rabbit is learning to be environmentally responsible. (Now if we could only get him to stop stealing from Mr. McGreggor!)
Peter Rabbit ... Naturally Better is a group of companies including EcoNatura, Kids Preferred, Penguin Young Readers Group, and Peter Rabbit Organics that have all decided to market organic products around Peter Rabbit. These products include books (such as the classic story I have pictured), soft toys (such as the Peter Rabbit you see here - there is also ones of Peter's sisters, Floppsy, Moppsy, and Cotton-Tail), toiletries for infants, and food - marketed under Peter Rabbit Organics!
These products aren't just "green" because of what they are made of, these companies have also signed a "Corporate Social Responsibility Charter" designed to guide the manufacturing, marketing, packaging, and business ethics of the initiative. These companies are recieving oversight by the Foresty Stewardship, Sedex, and the USDA to ensure that they are meeting specific standards and that they are engaging in fair labor practices - putting them on the forefront of the "green" and ethical manufacturing movements.
Penguin Young Readers will introduce a new series of books to celebrate the launch of Peter Rabbit...Naturally Better all with a "green" footprint. The books will include a baby record book, two board books, a cloth book, and a special edition FSC version of the hardcover Peter Rabbit classic. These books (with the exception of the cloth book) are all printed on recycled paper and have been printed with the best available vegetable-based inks.
You can see some of the products mentioned here on the Peter Rabbit... Naturally Better website HERE. You can also purchase some of the products there. You'll also see some of these products cropping up in stores around you since they will be sold nationwide.
Wanna Win One?
You're in luck! This company has been so kind as to allow me to give-away one of these cuddly characters to one of my lucky readers. The stuffed animals are made of 100% certified organic cotton and eco-friendly materials. They also come packaged in recyclable, reusable, PVC-free packaging... AND, you get to pick which character you want!
Just leave a comment about one way (it can be a small - itty bitty way) you are trying to be environmentally responsible. AND, don't forget to tell me which one you want to win (Peter, Floppsy, Moppsy, or Cotton-Tail).
Want an extra entry? Blog about this post and leave a second comment.
You have until Saturday at Midnight to enter! I will pick a winner through random.org and announce the winner here on Sunday (November 18).
*Don't forget to also enter my other two give-aways going on this week...
The Internet Password Organizer HERE and
The Mattress Protector - or Pillow case protector from Protect a Bed HERE
And don't forget to check back - at least once a day because the give aways just keep comin'

I'd love Peter.
Donna
I'm in the process of changing out all my light bulbs to CFLs.
We use a little floor heater when we are all in the living room instead of running the forced air heater. That way we are not heating the whole house.
I have many ways that I am environmentally friendly...but a new one I am trying is teaching my 3 year old to recycle his old drawings and pictures...by coloring on the back or using them to wrap gifts!
Amy

This is a wonderful giveaway!
I use reuseable grocery bags, cloth diapers and I recycle.
We would love to win Peter.
This Peter Rabbit is ADORABLE! My son would love him.
I take my own shopping bags to grocery stores & CVS, instead of using more plastic ones.
We only take what we need, we cloth diaper, keep the heat low, wash in cold, hang our laundry, kicked the paper towel/plastic bag habit, and recycle three times as much as we throw away.
We're not picky- our kids would love any of them!
Thanks for the chance!
Katy
I gets paper bags from the grocery store and then use them to cut out patterns for the sewing projects I have - next up making grocery bags out of old bed sheets.
Peter Rabbit please.
I love that Peter Rabbit is becoming "green." We have started going green by recycling our paper/plastic/glass and we are trying to use less energy in our house by turning off lights and running our dishwasher only when completely full.
We love Peter Rabbit in our home!
We recycle all of our plastic shopping bags.
My DD would love Moppsy.
We recycle anything and everything possible and always keep our vehicles tuned up and in best shape possible!
I'd love any, surprise me!
-Tamara
Cotton-Tail please.
We recyle
We try to buy all of our produce from the local vendor, use our own tote bags to shop, and recycle as much as possible. I think that Peter would be a great addition to our family!
We wash in cold. I use paper instead of plastic. Every little bit helps. Only run dishwasher when full and limit shower times.
We have no preference on which one... I have my fingers crossed

To be a little greener I have bought drying racks for our laundry,so we can line dry our clothes instead of putting them in the dryer.
Thanks for this giveaway, and thank you for blogging your heart out with all these savings and deals.

We cloth diapered my son for 2 years, used cloth wipes, we use family cloth, cloth momma pads, we try to use very little paper towels, recycle. You name it.
We like Peter.
We try to keep the lights off and the blinds open during the day. Plus (when I remember) we use our own bags at the grocery store.
My son would love Peter! Thank you!
We have been working harder at recycling. We do not have curbside recycling in our town, so we have to take everything to the site. It is not always convenient, but we try.
We like Peter.
pscole3467@gmail.com
I wash almost everything in cold water and air-dry lots of our clothing. I have switched to cloth grocery bags and am loving the benefit of how easy they are to carry. We would love Peter.
danadee75@hotmail.com
I am wrapping all of my childrens presents this year in comics! They only care whats inside
We recycle, compost, use paper on both sides, wash in cold, and reuse whatever we can! Plus I have 4 girls, so clothes get a LOT of use! :-) Peter looks cute--I tried looking for the others but couldn't find them.
We are trying to be more responsible by using all natural household cleaners, reducing our water use and electrical use in the house, and by using cloth groceries bags rather than using the paper or plastic.
Thanks so much for your posts! We would love Peter as well!
Love this giveaway!
We dont use paper products, we dont use paper towels or paper napkins or disposable products. It was a surprisingly easy switch!
oops (and Im not trying to enter twice) I forgot to say I'd like Peter!

We compost! Would love a Peter Rabbit.
We recycle as much as we can- even though we have to pay extra for recycling pickup.
Probably Peter.
I use a canvas bag when I go grocery shopping. I also unplug appliences and other electrical equipment (e.g microwave, tv etc.) to save on energy.
I would love either Peter or Flopsy. I actually have a cute & cuddley 9 year old bunny at home "Mr. Peanut" who looks just like Peter. **He makes his own contribution to the preservation of the enviroment through creative recycling methods --- Many a times have I caught him chewing on my valuable coupons :(
When I run errands, I park in 1 lot and walk to all of shops from there. I also take along my cloth bags
I unplug all appliances not in use and I've adjusted my a/c and heat so that I save energy.
Peter Rabbit please
We wash on cold, we keep our AC higher or lower depending on weather to keep costs down, and we recycle.
Thanks so much, we'd love Peter:)

We have recently just started donating all the magazines we get to our local nursing home. So, we are somewhat recycling all of our magazines, and we know that someone else sure appreciates the thought!... and our kids really have fun in the doing!
I just blogged about this fabulous giveaway on my blog. Here is the link:
http://savingmoneyideas.blogspot.com/2008/11/fellow-bloggers-want-to-win-prizes.html
Well, we are keeping the thermostat set so that the heater doesn't come on, or the AC (here in Florida.

Shooting for Peter Rabbit...
I have started taking my own grocery bags to the store.
Shooting for Peter Rabbit again...
See where I blogged about it here & contact me at my email-- couponwilsonwithkids@gmail.com -- Thanks for the chance!
We recycle our cans, use canvas bags when we shop( but I always have to have a few plastic bags on hand because our younger two get car sick a lot),use paper on both sides and continue using until it's practiclly nothing and the list goes on.
I'm sure my little girls would love any of bunnies.
Thanks!
We don't use plastic bottles, we recylce EVERY piece of paper, plastic, styrofoam and aluminum. All of those mistakes I make when I print on the computer are now for lists. We reuse glass bottles for projects. No more paper plates for us. We have twin nephews who would love Peter!
I would love to win Cottontail!
We have in the last month started recycling. Plastic, cans and paper we put in different trash cans and take them to the recycle center I never knew we had until a month ago!
I'm environmentally friendly by (a) recycling all soda cans and bottles; and (b) using own bags at grocery stores.
I was a Peter Rabbit fanatic as a kid and would love to give one to my 10 month old son!
thanks!
Kimberly
i try to use my own bags for grocery shopping...we also mill and make our own bread and baked goods.
my dd would love moppsy@
We wash all of our laundry on cold, and I have been *trying* to buy only free and clear ultra concentrated detergent.
As a frugal coupon clipper, I put my newspapers in the recyling bin! Peter Rabbit is so darling!
We keep our a/c at 81 degrees, even in the Texas heat! It's mostly to save money, but I guess it could be considered "green." I haven't fallen for the political driven "save the planet" hoax, but I am aware of the environment and do what I can to help.
We use canvas bags at the grocery store every time we shop. Even better we save money doing it while helping the environment because the grocery store gives us 5 cents for each reuseable bag!
I like to use reusable grocery bags.
I like the Peter Rabbit. Thanks for a great giveaway!

Cotton Tail! I try to reuse all that I can and recycle when i can.

I give anything that is still usable to the goodwill instead of throwing away.
I would be happy with any rabbit I get.
We turn the lights off in rooms we are not using, turn the faucet off when brushing teeth, we bought an HE washer, and we are slowly but surely replacing our bulbs to the HE's.
I would love Peter Rabbit for Graham! How cute is he!

I use my city's recycling program and also replaced all of the bulbs in our house (that would fit) with compact electricity saving bulbs. I also only wash undies, towels & sheets in hot water. Everything else gets the cold treatment at our house, and lots of stuff gets line dried.
I recycle plastic grocery bags as "poop bags" for my dog. Have also replaced regular lightbulbs with energy saving CFL's
Would love to win Peter

I recently started washing all of our laundry with cold water and I honestly haven't noticed a difference, so I'll be continuing with that. It's not a huge jump on the "green" bandwagon but it's a start.
My son would love to win the "Peter" rabbit. Thanks for the chance!
georgyct@aol.com
I take my own reuseable bag when doing ll of my shopping, reuse containers such as wipes, coffee and others for storage and use vinegar for most of my cleaning.
My son would like any one of the rabbits but I guess if we need to pick we'll pivk Peter. Thanks!
We all take less than 5 minute showers. (I shower only every other day, but I think that's more laziness than water conservation!)
We wash our clothes on cold, use our dishwasher when the load is full, and we cut down on our paper towel usage.
My son would love Peter Rabbit!
Thanks,
christina.mba@cox.net
We do lots of things to be friendly to the environment, we use reusable shopping bags, wash in cold water, air dry many of our clothes, recycle, have a garden in the summer, eat as much locally.

Thanks for offering this giveaway!

At our house we make most of our own food thereby not buying any extra boxes/bags/plastic that food normally comes in. I also use only homemade or natural cleaners as well as homemade or natural body products.
We've been changing all of our lightbulbs to the eco-friendly ones... I use my own bags when I go to the store, and we recycle everything that we possibly can! :-)
I would like to have cotton tail!

tchalk_22@yahoo.com
Oh, how adorable! When our oldest son was a baby he screamed everytime we put him in his car seat. The only way we could make him stop crying (other than take him out) was to sing "Here comes Peter Cotton Tail hopping down the bunny trail, hippity hoppity Easter's on it's way"over and over and over........ So I would love to have the Cotton Tail one for the grandbaby!
We save our cans and newspapers and take to the recycling business usually once a month.

I would like Cotton Tail.
charlenegale at yahoo dot com
I've been collecting my co-workers recycables.
I would love Peter.
we use cloth diapers to cut down on the disposal waste an we also wash almost everything in cold water. we also unplug every major electronic item in the home. just a simple cell phone charge will increase your electric bill. we would love Moppsy,
I use cloth bags and make my own cleaners. Peter!
Peter Rabbit of course! ;) I just started using reusable shopping bags about 4-5 months ago, and I love them. I also love knowing that I am cutting down on waste!
I've started a collection of reusable shopping bags and strung a clothesline in the backyard. We are also trying to be more careful about energy and trying to make good decisions about when we really need the heater, and whether we really need the back porch light on when we leave the house. Lots of small steps...
And Peter is definitely the one I'd like to get. I love Peter Rabbit and all the Beatrix Potter characters!
My husband rides his bike to work instead of driving (when it's not snowing).
Peter Rabbit, please! :)
All the rabbits are so cute. I like all of them. There are so many things we do to be green. Make own cleaners, laundry with cold water, recycle plastic, soda cans, cardboard, mulch grass, compost pile, energy efficient light bulbs, unplug any thing electrical we are not using, wash dishes by hand, use "Nothing Goes to Waste" site, where my local area offers free items. All items must be free... Have my own garage sales, and shop at garage sales and thrift shops...it's all part of recycling. Be kind to Mother Earth. : )
We reuse plastic ziploc bags.
I would love to give Cottontail to my daugther.
Marcie
We reuse every scrap of paper possible and then recycle them.

I'd like Peter Rabbit. Great giveaway, thank you!
We set our thermostat to reduce energy - we turn it off completely when the weather allows at all and open our windows. We also wash in cold ONLY & recycle cans and plastic. I think I'd like Cotton Tail.
I wash our laundry in cold water, reuse the printer paper for my grocery lists and five year old class, turn off lights not in use in the house, and recycle! I have a "green" friend who is having her first baby soon and I would love to give her the Peter doll. :)
tampa, fl. i'm on disability and my wife is on social security. by living on so much less now then when we were working, our carbon footprint is getting smaller. much to the dismay of the greatgrandkids who are not in this years xmas budget for presents. the cars are parked most of the time and we don't consume like our president says is good for the economy. maybe as more people lose their homes and jobs they will see live in a different prospective with having to do less and without. me, i sign up for freebies and give them away.
I am going to be a first time grandmother and what a lovely baby gift Peter would be. This is one of my favorite children's story that I would love to share with a grandchild.
I've ordered some re-usable grocery bags. I would love Cottontail for my girl!
Oh how adorable and a learning tool,what else could you ask for.
We recycle and re-use our grocery bags. My boys would love the Peter rabbit.

if we are picked my daughter would love to have her first Peter Rabbit. thank you so much!
I wash all laundry on cold. I recycle EVERYTHING! Nothing goes in my garbage that can be recycled at all. Thanks for the chance. My little boy would love Peter Rabbit.

My family washes our laundry in cold all the time, we take our own grocery bags to the store and when we end up with the plastic ones I always take them back to the store and put them in the recycle bin.
My little boy would love Peter Rabbit.
Thanks,

We have a compost heap, which reduces the amount of trash going to landfills.
I would like to win Peter Rabbit!
Thanks!

We recycle, and try cut down on our energy usage by dialing back the heat, keeping off the lights, and washing all but our dirtiest laundry on cold water.
I've always loved Peter!
Thanks!

One step closer to Peter Rabbit! lol =)
We turn off the water while brushing our teeth and recycle all of our cans.
Thanks!
We recycle, use a brita pitcher vs. buying water bottles, use cloth bags (if and when I remember), only turned on the AC 5-6 times this summer, and I live in So Cal, use tupperware vs. plastic baggies for my daughters lunches, and make my own laundry detergent.
I would really love Peter, thank you.
I am full-time cloth diapering mama!
My son would LOVE Peter Rabbit!
Thanks!
How cute! We recycle, but I think the most important thing we do is teaching my 4 year old about turning off the lights, not playing with the water in the sink, etc.
All of the bunnies are cute, but Peter is a classic!
Peter was always my favorite.
We are switching out the lightbulbs, recycling at out school and dropping magazine subscriptions.
I just blogged about Peter Rabbit for a second entry ~ http://ctgirlinks.blogspot.com/2008/11/peter-rabbit.html Thank you!
I am trying to be environmentally responsible by not using
plastice bags.

We recycle, wash our clothes in cold water, live within 5 minutes of work.
would love Cotton-Tail!
I'd have to pick Peter since my son's name is Peter.
I wash and reuse ziplock bags, recycle newspapers and egg cartons, we walk to the grocery store, and really just try to reduce, reuse and recycle whenever possible.
Thanks, elizachallis@hotmail.com
To do our small part, we bring along our environmentally friendly grocery bags when we go shopping, forgoing the paper or plastic. We also recycle newspaper, cardboard, plastic and glass.
I would love Peter, he's so cute!!!
It's a small part, but I don't bag the tons of leaves we get in the Fall(saves using ALOT of those black garbage bags, believe me) - I put them all in my vegetable garden as winter cover and then in the spring we turn it over. Naturally aids the soil!
I would love to win this Peter Rabbit! My friend's daughter just had a girl and it would make a great gift!

How adorable! I think I want one for myself ;)
We've been trying to switch out our old regular light bulbs with CFL bulbs and I've been trying to talk my husband into paying more for biodegradable trash bags (it isn't working though). I'm also looking to get into composting (sad how excited I am about it lol)

I bought the cotton bags for all the different stores and use those instead of using the plastic ones.
This would be for my new nephew, my favorite was always Moppsy
Thank you- JMHirsekorn@gmail.com
I cut my thermostat completely off during the day while no one is home. This also saves a ton on my power bill each month. I would love to win Peter. he would make a wonderful Christmas present for my new sweet nephew.

We use reusable bags for groceries and for produce too! Peter is wonderful - they are all wonderful! :)
I would love to adopt Peter! I am trying to be more environmentally resposible by hanging all my clothes even int he winter on a clothes rack and then fluff it for a couple of minutes so it is not "crunchy" as my children say!
