Lunchables has teamed up with Tori Spelling to launch a national campaign that will fund up to $100,000 to Boys & Girls Clubs of America and their sport and recreation programs.  They want kids to “Never be bored again.” Spelling and the Lunchables team invite families to capture photos of boredom-busting activities and share them by visiting the “Never Be Bored Again” application at Facebook.com/Lunchables.  Every photo that’s uploaded from today through October 15, 2012, will generate a $1 donation to Boys & Girls Clubs across America, up to $100,000, to help amp up the fun.  After uploading their photo, consumers will receive a $1-off coupon for new Lunchables with Smoothie, while supplies last.

The Lunchables team wants all kids to share inLunchables-style freestyle fun, and have the opportunity to “Never Be Bored Again.”  Now through February 2013, kids ages six to 13 can enter the “Never Be Bored Again” Instant Win Game* at Lunchables.com/fun for a chance to win one of over ONE MILLION boredom-busting prizes.


The three grand prizes are mega-cool hangout spots including a Tree House of You Dreams, a Sport Court® backyard court or an Ultimate Game Room. Other prizes include 25,000 Hasbro™ toys and games and 1,000,000 video downloads.

My kids got their “boredom busting” pack and took off in several different directions with the toys they sent. I couldn’t even get pictures! (The above picture is a sample prize pack from Lunchables.) Buddy took that BopIt Smash and played it for over an hour. We also got twister which I’m waiting for a rainy day to break out. Monkey got a Littlest Pet Shop that quickly disappeared into her room. She absolutely loves little toys. We’ve been spreading out our Luncables coupons and getting one or two a week. I’m saving up that Fandango gift card to take the kids to see Wreck It Ralph when it comes out. You can enter below to win your own Never be Bored Again gift pack. (estimated value of $150.)

Don’t forget to check out the Lunchables website, Facebook and Twitter.

    My boys LOVE to play board and card games. I think they could sit and play Monopoly for HOURS, which absolutely kills me. Fortunatly Dear Hubby loves to play too, so I pop the popcorn and bring a good book to the table to enjoy the conversation. I don’t know what I’d do some days without Chutes and Ladders and Uno!
