On Fridays I host Family Fun Friday so you can meet all my blogging friends and get great ideas.

Thanks to all my blogging friends for linking up last week at Family Fun Friday. So many great ideas, crafts and things to do! If you link up, you permit me to use your pictures/ideas as part of future posts. As always, for every 50+ ideas I will select a winner of some FREE jewelry. We had over 1oo bloggers link up last week. You all are amazing – you bless my socks off with your awesome posts!

The winner of our latest contest is: Brenda at Triple Braided Kids for her post on how to create a children’s home library. Congratulations Brenda!

Our winner was selected using a random number generator. Please contact me to let me know what jewelry you’d like. 😉

LINKING GUIDELINES

1. Link your blog post. Posts need only be family friendly and/or fun. To increase your chances of being featured at next week’s link party, link a post that is fun for two or more members of your family to do together. Things like preschool activities, homeschool ideas, fun in the kitchen, things to read, games, and crafts. Outings and family traditions are great too!

2. Please follow Happy and Blessed Home on Facebook – I post updates for FREE books and other giveaways there that you’ll miss otherwise due to their time-sensitive nature. Please leave a comment if you’re a new follower so I can follow you back.

3. A NEW “Like My Facebook Page” party is at the bottom of Family Fun Friday link party. Link up your Facebook Page – this will help bloggers increase their Facebook likes by following each other online. Last week almost 500 people stopped by this link party so this is a great way to make new friends.

4. Help other bloggers find this link party by either adding a link to your post or placing a button on your site. This is not required but very helpful.

5. Visit as many blogs in the HOP as you can! Don’t just link and run – make new friends and help build community. Try to leave a comment on posts for at least two other bloggers.

6. Win Jewelry! Posts qualify for five entries and comments with an idea for family fun counts as one entry. After we have 50 ideas for family fun, I’ll use a random number generator to pick a winner of FREE jewelry.

7. Tweet, pin, Facebook, and help spread the word about this link party HOP. The more successful the HOP, the more potential followers you’ll have!
