Kohl’s Goes Green Review & Giveaway

We love shopping at Kohl’s and we love Dr. Seuss!  There is a new theme for the Kohl’s Cares For Kids Program and it surrounds going green and Dr. Seuss!  Plus, they are only $5 each – what a deal!  $5 will get you a classic children’s book, a huggable Dr. Seuss friend, a New York Times best-seller on how to live a greener life, and a great feel of giving back!

This year, the Kohl’s Care for Kids program is celebrating it’s 10th anniversary!  It is a program that features $5 merchandise with 100 percent of net profit benefiting children’s health and education initiatives throughout the nation.  This spring, the Kohl’s Care for Kids program is featuring four Dr. Seuss books and coordinating plush toys for just $5 each:

- The Lorax – Lorax plush
- The Foot Book – Orange “Foot” Character plush
- Oh, the Thinks You Can Think! – Yellow “Thinks” Character plush
- If I Ran the Circus – Whale Plush

According the Newsweek’s 2009 ranking, Kohl’s is the number one green retailer is pleased to offer The Lorax at such an amazing value to help kids learn the importance of caring for the environment.  Plus, all four Dr. Seuss books are printed on 60 percent post-consumer recycled paper.  Adults can find a similar message in The Green Book, a book about how to take steps to be more environmentally responsible.

As the number one green retailer, according to Newsweek’s 2009 ranking, Kohl’s is pleased to offer The Lorax at such an incredible value to help kids learn the importance of caring for the environment. Also, all four Dr. Seuss books that are offered as part of the Kohl’s Cares for Kids® program are printed on 60 percent post-consumer recycled paper. For adults, that message is found in The Green Book.  This book is a handbook on how to take steps to be more environmentally responsible.

MY THOUGHTS

My kids love listening to me read Dr. Seuss to them.  It’s even more magical with a plush that’s relevant to the story!  Plus, The Green Book has some great ideas that you can incorporate into your life to live more environmentally responsible.  Thank you Kohl’s for a great product and program!  I think these are great products for a great price going to a great cause!  Check them out today!

Items can be found at more than 1,000 Kohl’s locations nationwide!  Check out Kohl’s online for more details.

    I do alot of little things…. separating garbage and recycling, energy saving lightbulbs, minimize the heat loss in my home, taking my grocery bags to the store. I firmly believe that if everyone will contribute with the little things, we help the world out as a whole.

    I use vinegar instead of fabric softener in the rinse cycle of the laundry. It works better and is much cheaper.

    I try to be green to set a good example for my kids, but the most impressive thing I’ve ever done to be green was last weekend when we were volunteering at the Food Bank. We were putting bulk rice into smaller, zip-loc bags. I asked the guy in charge if he was going to throw away all the “boxtop for education” labels. He said yes!! So after the shift was over, I ripped them all off to donate to one of the smaller schools in our district. Then I asked if he was going to recycle the boxes. He said no. So I brought ALL of them to the recycling center. We bagged 31,000 pounds of rice that day, so that’s A LOT of zip loc bag boxes!
