**You do not need to
comment on every stop of the blog hop to have a chance to win a prize. One

Christmas in July 4 Kids challenge, you will also earn a chance to win one of 8
random prizes there.
**You MUST have an

**The blog hop will
start July 21st at 8:00 a.m. CST and continue until July 31st
at midnight CST. When the blog hop is done, all the winners will be drawn
randomly from the commenters on each blog and on the main blog, and announced
on the SAS4Kids blog on August 4th and on each individual blog. If your name is
listed as a winner, you must contact Karen at khasheck@gmail.com BEFORE August 18th at midnight CST with your NAME, EMAIL
ADDRESS AND MAILING ADDRESS. If you do not contact Karen before August 18th
