Day #7 of Holiday Free Family Fun with Ashley Saunders

Posted by ruckusholly on December 19th, 2011

Ashley SaundersWe are continuing 12 Days of Holiday Free Family Fun with our friends at ZiggityZoom.  Our seventh guest blogger is Ashley Saunders of TeachableMommy.com.   Ashley is a Teachable Mommy of 2. When she is not teaching her children or learning life lessons, Ashley is a blogger, foodie, coffee lover, and a book nerd.  You can also follow her over on Twitter at @IrishRed02.

When asked how she keeps her kids busy during the holidays, Ashley said:

If you are like me, keeping little ones busy during the holidays can be a daunting task! I like to get mine involved in as much of the to-do of Christmas as possible. My daughter likes to help wrap and my son uses his muscles to put, or throw, the presents under the tree (thank goodness nothing is breakable!).

We also love a good dress-up dance party. Nothing gets the sillies out like rocking out to our favorite songs.  It’s also a great way to work off any extra holiday treats!

Visit ZiggityZoom.com for today’s 7th Day of Christmas Free Family Fun Printable- fun kids activity, Snowflake WORD Worksheet, and a giveaway for a FREE Ruckus app.

This holiday season, we’re making it really easy for you to help us raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®.

First we put our entire library on sale during the week of Thanksgiving and we donated 100% of all net proceeds to the cause ($1.39 per app).  The Rabbit Ears apps continue to be priced at $1.99 until the end of the month, and all proceeds are going toward this important cause, so don’t forget to stock up on these great stocking stuffers and Hanukkah gifts.

Now, we’ve come up with another way to donate funds to the lifesaving work of St. Jude.  All you have to do is “Like us” on Facebook and we’ll donate .25 cents to St. Jude.  If we reach 1,000 fans by December 31st, we will donate 100% of the total donation.*

Please invite your friends to like us on Facebook today so we can make our goal!

*Maximum donation amount from the Facebook campaign is $250.

 

 

 

 

Black Friday Shopping to Support a Cause

Posted by ruckusholly on November 22nd, 2011

Ruckus Media St. Jude promotionThis Thanksgiving, we are giving back.  With EVERY Ruckus app sold, we are donating 100% of the net proceeds to the children of St. Jude Children’s Hospital®.  Not only can you get a head start on your holiday shopping  (apps do make great stocking stuffers!), but you will support a wonderful cause.  In addition, we are dropping the price of all our apps to $1.99 each.  It’s truly Black Friday Shopping to support a cause.

It’s the eighth annual Thanks and Giving campaign, a holiday campaign that asks shoppers to “Give thanks for the healthy kids in your life, and give to those who are not,” and we’re proud to be a partner to help make a difference in these children’s lives.

Beginning today and running over Black Friday and through Monday, November 28th, 2011, we  will donate to St. Jude 100% of the net proceeds ($1.39) of the company’s entire digital library including the iTunes bestseller MY LITTLE PONY: TWILIGHT SPARKLE, TEACHER FOR A DAY and Moms’ Choice award winner CHUCK AND FRIENDS: FRIENDS FOR THE LONG HAUL, both featuring beloved Hasbro characters; holiday Read-Play-and-Record-Along classics THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS and THE VELEVETEEN RABBIT, both told by Meryl Streep; among many other interactive storybooks. You will be supporting the hospital’s lifesaving mission of finding cures and saving children with cancer and other deadly diseases.

To learn more about the Thanks and Giving campaign and its partners, please visit www.stjude.org or call 1-800-4STJUDE. To purchase Ruckus’ interactive storybooks for iOS mobile devices and help support this campaign during the holiday season, visit the Ruckus Media Group page at iTunes.

Happy shopping!
