As you may have noticed from Thursday’s FAO Schwarz post, I’ve been on a real “customization” kick lately. The idea of creating your own personalized doo dad was once something that only the independently wealthy and well-connected could achieve. Whether you were attempting to record your own album or publish a book, you had to have an entire army of investors, lawyers, and designers to finish with a professional looking work. I’m happy to say that those days are over thanks to the clever folks at blurb…well, for book publishing anyway.

It doesn’t matter if you are a new parent interested in creating a sharp looking photo book, or you are an undiscovered children’s author trying to get your first book to print, you’ll love blurb’s start to finish publishing system. Not only will blurb’s software help organize your text, photos, and design style, it will also help those wishing to sell their books get shelf space in blurb’s online bookstore. If that’s not already easy enough, our friend mod*mom is giving away 5 blurb make your own books worth $800! Visit mod*mom today to learn how to win your own blurb book, and those of you that can’t wait to get started will want to pick-up the $10 coupon code while it’s still hot!

Have a great weekend,

Dr.MOZ

Today we’re celebrating back-to-school madness with two fantastic guides! Our “healthy dose of fun” starts of with a crazy-cool shopping guide from Cool Mom Picks full of tasty discounts on sweet school swank. The “health” portion of today’s post is a survival guide by DIY Life for the other participants of the back-to-school craziness…the teachers!

The Cool Mom Picks Back to School Guide 2007 includes everything from the coolest kicks (Trumpette’s, ADAM, See Kai Run) and backpacks (Pooki and Co, Little Packrats) to school accessories like staplers (magic mini staplers that is) and pencil cases with style (by allerhand)! If that’s not enough for you, perhaps the huge pile of coupon codes or the $200 drawing will do the trick?

DIY Life’s Teacher’s First Week Survival Guide helps teachers prepare for what can be one brutal week. Although preparation for the new school year began when summer vacation began for most teachers, DIY helps ease the transition with “week before school” and “weekend before school” reminders. They won’t leave you hanging there “Teach”, they’ll make sure you find time to relax, exercise, and eat with handy reminders through the entire first week!

Thanks for visiting our blogging friends everyone, and don’t forget to submit your tips and tricks for helping students with their fear of the school bus (see related post).

Have fun and stay healthy,

What do you mean you didn’t know about Parent’s Day? That’s right, the 4th Sunday of each July was proclaimed “National Parents’ Day” by the President of the United States in 2004. Learn more about the history on the official Parents’ Day website here.

It is hard to know what to get every parent in the country for Parents’ Day. Let’s face it…all you really want is more sleep which makes you pretty hard to shop for. Hey I know, how about a free magazine subscription and promotional codes on all online orders at your favorite stores for the rest of your life? Great!

Free American Baby Subscriptions! We’re not sure how long this free subscription will be available, so you better sign-up soon if you would like one!
