A Very Veggie Giveaway!

This month, I am sharing giving ideas and special giveaways as part of The 30-Day Giving Challenge.

I am sure you are all familiar with our next well-loved sponsor! I had the opportunity to connect with a Veggies Tales rep directly while at The Relevant Conference a few weeks ago. As I told her about our vision for the Giving Challenge, she enthusiastically came on board!

VeggieTales, created by Big Idea Entertainment, is a Christian animated kids brand featuring Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber and other friendly, silly, singing and dancing vegetables. VeggieTales shows teach Bible-based lessons to kids in a fun and engaging way, such as helping others, the joy of giving, and thankfulness.

VeggieTales has generously offered a set of six DVDs and one music CD to donate to the charity of our choice, and of course a duplicate set for one lucky reader!

Starting with Saint Nicholas: A Story of Joyful Giving, you will find VeggieTales’ theory on giving in the lyrics of one of the show’s songs, “I can love because God loves me, I can give because God gave. Jesus’ love is why I’m smiling, why I’m giving everyday.” In addition to Saint Nicholas, the gift pack includes Sweetpea Beauty, A Silly Little Thing Called Love, It’s A Meaningful Life, Pistachio, Heroes of the Bible, and Bob and Larry Sing the 80’s CD!

Enter to win 1 Veggie Tales Gift Pack for your family to enjoy or share:

    I like that they teach Biblical principles and I don’t have to worry whether or not it’s appropriate for my child.

  14. Stefanie says

    I love how Veggie Tales teaches my kids Bible stories in a fun way that keeps their attention! The music is great, and they are such great movies that I watch right along with them!

  15. Jenny says

    I love the Christian moral message and the humor in all of the veggie movies…and my kids do too!

  17. Tracie S says

    What do I love most about Veggie Tales? EVERYTHING! They are wholesome, and they teach wonderful lessons to kids in a way they can understand and connect with. They bring Bible Stories to life in funny ways, and they are so much fun! I have 4 children, and we have had Veggie Tales in our house since my almost 13 year old was very tiny. We enjoy them as much as the kids do!

  20. Kelly D. says

    I love the message and how the whole family can watch & enjoy it. Thanks for the chance!

  23. Stacia Jahnke says

    What I love most about VeggieTales is that they teach kids the values and morals that are sometimes missing in today’s society and in a way that the kids can relate to. You never have to ‘preview’ a Veggie Tale movie to see if it’s appropriate for the kids to watch; they’re very kid-oriented and the kids love them!

  24. Emily says

    what i love about veggie tales is how they make bible stories entertaining, they have great, catchy songs, and i know i can trust the movies to be in line with my families morals & values…never have to worry about popping one in!

  31. Sharon says

    I subscribe via email (a couple of days ago I was trying to sign up for another blogs email newletters, but they had the wrong link and I wound up signing up for yours by mistake! I’m so glad I did though, as I’ve been enjoying your posts).

  40. Rebecca says

    I like the music in these, they are catchy, they have a great tune and still have a good message or sometimes, just a silly message…..everything doesn’t have to have a message sometimes it’s fun to be silly.

  43. Cheryl P says

    We love lots about veggie tales, we love the characters, we love the morals they teach, and we love the songs.

  44. Rebecca Lucyshyn says

    I love how the kids can watch any VeggieTales movie and I know that everything in it will be appropriate and faith based.

  47. sue a says

    love the music. My kids sing them and it gives me the chance to remind them of God, it also reminds me when I need it.

  49. Jacqueline says

    I love the humor of Veggie Tales. There is something in each episode for all ages! It makes an enjoyable program for parents and children. It is also a well done program that teaches Biblical truth!
    I subscribe to your email.

  54. Sherry says

    My Children watched veggie tales and now I want my grand daughter to have the full experience! Thanks for all of your enlightening and thrifysmart help!!

  56. Sharon says

    I love how Veggie Tales keeps children interested in a video with a message. It’s a fun and valuable tool to help kids learn about the Bible. I really like the songs.

  58. Brandi says

    I love veggie tales because 1- they teach lessons 2- they are ADORABLE 3- all 5 of my kids like them, even the 14yr old!

  63. Tracy says

    What I love the most about the Veggie Tales series, is the cheerful, easy to understand messages from the bible that are shared. My little one really gets into the songs too. 🙂 Love them!

  64. Bethany Goff says

    What DON’T I love about VeggieTales! I think my favorite thing has to be the unashamed, unabashed Biblical truths they teach. My absolute favorite video, because of this very thing, is “An Easter Carol”, especially because of the song that tells the whole story of Christ from Christmas to the Resurrection. If there was ever a more clear presentation of the Gospel in a child’s video, this has got to be it.

  66. tiffanie says

    i love that there is always a great lesson to learn and that they teach the type of values that i want my daughter to know

  71. Jody in TX says

    I don’t know that I can pick just one thing about Veggie Tales! I love the sense of humor, but I also love the morals that are taught.

  75. Laura says

    I love Veggie Tales because they make my kids and I laugh! And it’s also super fun that they’re from Minnesota and put in all the little MN jokes. 🙂

  77. Hope L says

    I love Veggie Tales – the subtle humor that only the adults catch, the lovable characters, the good, honest Bible lessons, the values, the consistency – they never have compromised, even after gaining so much popularity! God bless the creators, animators, and voice actors as they create new work for my family to love and learn from!

  79. Kelly Pitt says

    Veggie Tales are not only very entertaining they always point the way to the Bible. We were in a Christian book store oneday and Veggie Tales were playing. My 13 year old son was even watching it!

  81. Heidi says

    My 5 kids absolutely LOVE Veggie Tales and I do too because they are getting the bible stories reinforced and also learning good values!

  93. shannon says

    I love the fact that Veggie tales is a christian based show for my kids to watch! It teaches them mortals, about the bible and God! Can’t get much better then that!

  95. Lissette Romero says

    When you ask my 3 year old what his favorite music is – he says – “veggie tales” – its music that honors God and I am so happy when I hear him singing it around the house or talking about Bible scenes he saw in a veggie tales movie. So my favorite thing is how impactful Veggie tales has been in my sons’ life.

  97. Linda says

    I love that I can put a Veggie Tales in for my friends’ kids to watch while they’re at our house, and I am assured that what they’re hearing and seeing is going to turn their hearts to the Lord and not to the garbage that so many videos focus on.

  100. says

    My children grew up with Veggie Tales and now that I have 2 grandson and 2 more “additions” on the way, it would be wonderful for my grandchildren to experience them

  104. Laura says

    What don’t I like about Veggie Tales?!? 🙂 I love that they share Bible stories and other stories with biblical principals in a way that is entertaining and easy to understand for everyone — from the littlest kids to their parents.

  109. Christina Murry says

    I love Veggie Tale because they reinforce what we are trying to teach our children. They hear the readings at Church and sometimes can understand them better because of the what they have seen in a Veggie Tales show. It really help parents with the building blocks of faith and morals. And my children 5 and 11, both prefer it over Ed, Ed, and Eddy.

  113. says

    I love that you can trust all of their videos to be good topics that you don’t have to preview before letting your kids watch them. They are even topics of everyday real life that teach kids something useful too which is GREAT!

  120. kris says

    I love Veggie Tales and the great messages it provides for kids. The kids also, enjoy watching the movies. I’m a subscriber, too.

    Veggie Tales is AMAZING! Being stationed overseas makes it hard for our daughter to go to Sunday school…but because we have Veggie Tales she still gets to learn about God.

  131. Sara says

    I love that they can take the Bible and turn it into something children can relate to, but in a funny way.

  137. Priscilla says

    I love VeggiesTales so much because it’s a show the whole family can watch. And we all get something out of it! 🙂 We’re enjoying Netflix streaming some of them.

  142. Beth VM says

    What’s not to love about Veggie Tales??

    I love the fact that Veggies Tales is fun for any age group. My kids are 8,12,17 and they all still love to watch Veggies Tales….and I admit, I do too!

  147. Catie says

    I love what Veggie Tales is all about, making the Bible accessible to the youngest of God’s children!

  149. says

    I love that the Veggietales teach kids about God and Christina values in a fun, funny gentle way that kids understand but adults enjoy as well. From 1 year old up to my 16 year old and my husband and I we all love Bob , Larry and all their friends.

  155. Suzette Crouse says

    I LOVE Veggie Tales!! I love that they are very cute, appealing to our young children, educational about teaching life’s lessons in a biblical way …They do make Bible stories for kids a lot of fun and very interesting! …Did I say, I LOVE Veggie Tales ..he he I do LOVE them!

  156. Summer says

    I like that my 3 year old son asks for veggie tales! I like that they make it fun and exciting and he would rather watch that than other cartoons. I like the messages they promote and the values they help to solidify and that we can all watch it together and even my husband and I laugh sometimes! We love it and would love to win!!

  163. Melissa B says

    I love that the lessons learned from the “veggies” center around God’s principles. Entertainment with a Godly lesson. What could be better??

  166. Tonya Barker Sartin says

    I love Veggie Tales because of the loveable characters that bring God’s message to my kids in such a way that they remember for such a long time. It is soooooooooooo refreshing to watch such “clean” tv! I am sharing this with my facebook friends.

  175. Margaret Dela Cruz says

    I love Veggie Tales because my grandaughter LOVES Bob & Larry!
    She is 21 months! I love hearing her say BOB! She says it sooo cute!
    She brings ‘Bob & Larry” with her when she goes out!
    It is a good witness. Some may ask , “Who is Bob?”, and we can share the message! Positive role models!
    Thank you!

  178. Ann Moore says

    Am Facebook fans of Veggie Tales and Kingdom First Mom. Thanks. You both mean so much to both me and my family.

  184. Alicia says

    I love the humor and find myself laughing right along with my students – I use them in classes I teach to reinforce lessons in a fun way.

  185. Ann Moore says

    I subscribe to emails. Will never forget the afternoon I singlehandledly took TEN 2 and 3 year olds to see the Jonah movie. We had zero problems. See how good you are Veggie Tails.

  186. Shawna says

    I love Veggie Tales b/c it allows me to watch my little girl long enough for me to take a shower! I know the tv should not be a babysitter but a clean mommy is a happier mommy!

  190. Deena Ellington says

    I love how it has a great message that is so easy for everyone to understand. I also love how my girls will sing songs even when they are not watching the show.

  191. Laurie says

    I love the fact that they’re so upbeat, and yet the characters aren’t “perfect”. They do a good job of letting kids know that bad choices aren’t the end of the world, but you do have to make good choices to fix things. Great lesson that kids are never too young to start learning. 🙂

  200. Rae says

    I love that I can watch with my grandkids and they can learn Biblical principals and that I can enjoy the stories myself….. I love Laura the carrot

  201. Laura says

    I love Veggie Tales because ALL of my kids like to watch the stories and they impart values instead of being useless entertainment.

  210. Rebecca Stover says

    What I like most about Veggie Tales is how it relates the Bible stories to the children in a way that they can easily understand. It depicts the characters in the stories in a way that relates to the children in their every day lives.

  224. Heather says

    My kids and I love that they incorporate music into their stories. My kids latch on to music and remember the stories through the songs.

  237. Isel says

    I love that I son’t have to worry about the content – no fighting, or ugliness; they teach about the Bible in a fun way. My son loves the music and silliness.

  238. says

    Love love love Veggie Tales. Maybe even a little bit more than my toddler. What a wonderful giveaway. I think my favorite part of Veggie Tales are the hilarious songs. They get stuck in your head all day and you don’t even mind.

  243. Summer says

    I like how VT presents the Bible to children and I also like how it appeals to adults as well (well, those of us who are young at heart!) ;o)

  249. Debbi says

    My favorite thing about VeggieTales is that they are just as fun for adults to watch as well as the kids. And I love the Silly Songs!

  253. Tanya says

    I like that they are funny but with a message. Also not too corny that adults can watch them without them being annoying.
    This would make a great addition to our Sunday school collection at church.

  258. Molly says

    I love the messages, which are delivered in relevant and catchy (and touching!) ways. Oh, and Junior Asparagus – he’s my absolute fave.

  317. says

    I love Veggie Tales because they are memorable – the combination of music, funny characters, and Biblical teaching is a great way for children and adults to remember what God is teaching us in His Word!

  321. Kenna says

    I love VeggieTales, because they are a great way to help my grandchildren understand the stories they are learning in their Bibles. Also, like that Larry went to Equador with a Operation Christmas Child box last year. It helped my 5-year old grandson understand why we pack and send boxes.

  322. Joyce Mlinek says

    I like the way Veggie Tales keep the attention of small children and they teach valuable lessons both to the child and adult watching the cd.

  368. Joyanne says

    I subscribe to your blog via e-mail. I also “like” the blog on Facebook and I just “liked” Veggie Tales on Facebook as well. Veggie Tales became big when my oldest daughter was first born. As a result our 4 girls have been raised with them all along. I appreciate their ability to convey God’s message of love so easily and with such grace and humor. They are such fun and relevant stories…the Veggie Tales make the Bible Stories contemporary and approachable. We’d make good use of such a wonderful gift pack. Thanks for the opportunity! God bless!
