For Girls Like You – A giveaway!

·

A few weeks ago I was at a conference called DotMom in Frisco, Texas. Even though now that I think about it, I guess it was really more like a month ago. I have no idea. My last month and a half has been a haze of deadlines and stomach bugs and bundt cakes and battles over Easter sandals.

Anyway, while I was there, I noticed an exhibit for something called For Girls Like You, but I was busy and didn’t have time to stop and check it out. But I was curious because I have a daughter and I’m always on the lookout for anything that might be of use to me as I try to navigate the tricky waters of mothering a girl.

So I was excited when I received an email from Wynter. She’s the founder of For Girls Like You and the mother of four, FOUR, daughters. So, you know, she might know something about raising girls.

For Girls Like You is a ministry to young girls (ages 6-11) and their parents. It includes a quarterly print magazine, journal, and other print and web resources. The purpose is to introduce young girls to Christian values in a relatable way so they can walk passionately and boldly in who God has created them to be.

Wynter sent me a few past editions of the magazine and I gave them to Caroline to see if she’d like them. And she did. She read them in bed at night and told me at one point, “Mom, these have some really good advice about things I think about.”

And, trust me, she wouldn’t just say that. She’s a tough critic.

Today I have the chance to give away a gift pack to one of you. It will include a copy of the For Girls Like You Magabook, a Journal and Spring 2013 Magazine Issue, along with a subscription to the magazine. All you have to do for a chance to win is leave a comment. Maybe you can share how old your daughter is. Or how old your granddaughter is. Or how old the girl you have in mind for this is. Whatever.

One comment per person please. I’ll leave comments open until Friday and then choose a winner using a random number draw.

  129. This is absolutely what I need. I’ve been trying to find a good devotional book that is on my 6 year old’s level since she’s asking lots of God-related questions. I have a younger daughter too so any advice we can get will certainly help me/us navigate the trying times ahead!

  130. Only 1 sweet little girl here who is almost 8. She has 4 older brothers so this girlie stuff is all new territory!

    • My daughter Julie Anna is 7. Anything that will help her (and me) navigate the next few years would be wonderful.

  149. I have a granddaughter who is 7 and I would love for her to read stuff like this. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

  150. This would be great for my8 and 9 year old nieces and maybe even my 5 year old daughter!

  155. My granddaughter will be 8 years old in July and I think this will be agreat resource for her.

  158. My girls are 13 and 11. There are also the Between magazines, not sure how often they are printed though.

  166. I have a 9 year old going on about 15, and I so get all the drama you have with Caroline.

  167. I have 3 girls but only one in the 6-11 age range. But I want to encourage her to read more as she does not love to read. This looks perfect (short articles are less daunting than whole books).

  170. I have an 8 year old that would love it now and a 5 year old that would love it soon. actually, I think I’m the one who would love it the most. This is all new territory we’re getting into here…

  173. Girl…I have 4 daughter’s so this is right up my alley! They are 12, 8, 3, and 7 months…Lord, help me…

  174. As a children’s pastor this sounds like a resource I would love to get my hands on! Thanks for the information!

  176. I have 10 year old and a 7 year old girl…. This sounds like a wonderful thing for them!

  179. I have 2 girls, 8 and almost 6. They love devotionals and Bible stories and helping lead worship at their kids area at church!

  180. In honor of my Granddaughter, Aurora Leigh, who although she is only 5, acts older than that because of having to be THE ONLY girl – with two brothers, and 2 sets of 3 boy cousins on each side of the family…and you know, girls rule…especially when all the “older and younger BOYS” get so UN-ruly…somebody has to keep them in line…

    Perhaps a “girl” magazine will give her the encouragement she needs to stand strong, love God, and eventually appreciate being surrounded by so much testosterone… “one of these days.”

    She is bright, beautiful, loves ballet and all of the “doctor Barbies” and I want to encourage her to be all that God has for her to be – in her world.

    Hugs Aurora,

    All My Love
    “Oma”

Then the next hour she is the same old smiling little girl we all reconize! SHe pouts about having to sing withthe childrens choir, then wants to watch sponge bob when she gets home.
    To love her, is a wonderful new experience for me, for my only child was a boy, much, much easier. I have no doubt whe will become a wonderful accomplished adult one day, her parents are still wondering where there little “boo” goes in those times of growing up.

  272. My granddaughter, Paige, is 8 and will be making her First Communion in a few weeks. What a special and unique gift this would be for her. I also believe my other two granddaughers, 11 and 7, would love this also so I will check this website out.

  293. I have four little loves- 2 boys & 2 girls. My 5 year old is a smart & lively little girl. She is also just like her mama, which terrifies me. I love gathering advice & materials to raise these sweet children as intentionally as possible. Thanks for your post!

I’m constantly asking “Why am I paying for my husband’s raising???” I would love to read and give to them some wonderful Christrian advice for navigating through these years. By the way, Gig’EM…Class of ’93

  302. I have one daughter ( +2 sons). She might love this because she is old enough to be taking her walk seriously and I want her to have every encouragement to do so!

  333. My daughter just turned 7 & this sounds like something we would love to read together!

  336. My daughter is currently too young for this (she’s 13 months old) but I love the idea of it for my 9-year-old sister-in-law!

  337. My daughter is 11. That’s really hard to put in print cause I keep thinking she is just two. I hope she is not too old for this.

  338. My daughter turns 10 in the summer. I would love to get more insight on how to “raise her up in the ways that she should go” and to be a good mom to her.

    I’m currently reading your book and really love it! =)

  339. My daughter will be 9 the end of this month. I can’t wait to check out their website. I’m always searching for things to help our relationship and her walk with God. It’s hard to find things this day and age with not too much “worldly” influence.

  340. I am raising an 18 year old daughter, a 14 year old son, a 9 year old daughter, a 48 year old hubby, 2 great danes, a little half-shih-tzu/half lhasa (we lovingly refer to her as a {lhasa-shiht}), and two cats. Working on my first book now, which is my story of seven years of seizures, depression, and prescription drug addiction. It’s definitely a labor of love because it’s not fun to write…dredging up all of those old, painful memories. My next book will be about the joys and all the other stuff that comes with my crazy family. I LOVE your title and look forward to reading you book! I will be at Allume this year…maybe we’ll meet? Congrats on your book!

  341. I have an almost 10 year old daughter and would love to win this! BTW.. Loved your book so much! Really.

  346. My daughter’s name is Emmaline and she is 9 years old. I just finished reading your book and recommended it to all my friends. I laughed and nodded my head all the way through and then cried through the last chapter. Thank you for being brave enough to write it!!

  351. I have to girls– 7&16 mos. My oldest is working out her faith right now and I would love some guidance in that.

  356. Sounds interesting! I have two daughters – nearly-four & just-eight. Don’t know whether your giveaway is open to those of us in Canada, though…

  372. My girls are young women now, 23 and 21. I am blessed to have a wonderful relationship with both of them. AND, they love each other! How important is that?! I would love to give the gift pack to my nephew and his two young daughters.

  379. This would be wonderful for my niece. My brother raises her and he does an amazing job but this would be great for BOTH of them! Pick me:) I would also get major best aunt ever points:)

  382. my sister has three girls…10, 6 and soon to be 5…baby boy is 3 weeks old today…i think she qualifies!! 😉

  384. My daughter and her family have been in Guatemala for the past 5 years ministering to a group of Mayans and helping with the translation of the Old Testament. Out of their 5 children they have 3 girls ages 11, 6 and 2. This would be great for their re-entry into the North American culture. They are moving back here in 2 weeks!! God bless.

  387. I have a 3 year old daughter and another due in 6 weeks! Know they are still too young for this study BUT time is flying by and Lizzy will be 6 before I know it!

  389. my first daughter is 26 now.

  487. I would LOVE to get this. I have six daughters. This would go to great use in my house. 🙂

  488. I would love to bless my wonderful nieces with this, since in my house, it’s the three wisemen and I (that would be my hubby and our 2 beautiful boys). Or perhaps, I’d use it in my classroom at school…free choice reading material for my darling 3rd graders!

  490. My sweet cousin has 2 girls, age 1 and age 7. This would be GREAT for her 🙂
    Thanks!

  496. A single mother of a soon to be 7 yr old daughter as of Saturday. Really struggling with her in regards to being honest. Could use all the advice I could use on this subject & much more.

  499. Oh what a great giveaway!!! My daughter is 11, caught between two boys, and as we navigate the strangeness of boys it would be SO great to have a resource that we could both figure this out together! 🙂

  501. Very cool! I have a daughter that recently turned 5 but some days I think she’s 12. 🙂

  502. Would love to have this for my daughter! We can not speak enough truth to our daughters.

  505. I have 2 girls…one is 5 and the other is almost 2. I’ve been thinking lately how hard it is to raise girls in this world full of Toddlers and Tiaras and Dance Moms. All I want is to raise confident, kind, and compassionate little ladies (even when sometimes I am not…just being honest!). That’s why I pray A LOT!

    PS…I think you’re hilarious. If I lived in Texas or you lived in Nebraska, I’m sure we’d be best friends…because I am also hilarious. 🙂

  506. Oh my gosh! I hope I’m not too late. I have two daughters. One is 3 and one is 7. So this is right in my 7 year old’s wheel house. Here’s hoping.

    Thanks & Gig ’em, Big Mama!
