"I have really enjoyed connecting with my family and I know my kids have too! By forcing myself to commit to the 6 months, I have now started some traditions that I know we'll continue and have become a part of our "normal" routine. I really wish more people had stuck with it!! They would have gained so much." ~ Andrea Rose
The happyhome Family Challenge helps to put the happyhome habits to work for your family. It's easy: one simple assignment every other week will change your family life. Take the Family Challenge and choose up to $150 in Once Upon a Family Products when you complete all six assignments!
GET STARTED:
Get the happyhome book here to learn more about the 5 happyhome habits.
Sign up for this group by clicking 'Join Take the happyhome Challenge!' in the header next to the title of this group - you must be a member of the happyhome club to see that link. (Click on 'Sign In' at the top of the right-hand column to become a member.)
Your new Challenge assignments are posted in the Discussion Forum below. Do the assignment and then post your photo and text under each assignment (so we can keep track of you!)
The happyhome Challenge is an ongoing 3-month Challenge. The start and end dates are as follows:
Spring Challenge: April 1 – June 30
Summer Challenge: July 1 – September 30
Fall Challenge: October 1 – December 31
Winter Challenge: January 1 – March 31
You have 3 months to complete the Challenge. In order to be eligible for the happyhome hero kit, you must submit all 6 entries by midnight PT on the last day of the season's Challenge. If you were unable to finish the last season's Challenge, you are welcome to resubmit your responses in the current season's Challenge. All 6 responses need to be posted in the current season's discussions. (Meaning: you cannot leave an assignment in a past Challenge and get credit for it. )
The 6 Challenge assignments are posted in the Discussion Forum below. They consist of an activity that you do with your family relating to the happyhome habits. Upon completion, you will post a picture and a brief 150-word description of your activity.
Each participant is eligible for a one-time personalized happyhome hero kit* upon completion of the Challenge - you get to choose the products that go in it! And we're adding a bonus gift to anyone who adds video to their Challenge responses! Upload your video by clicking on the Video tab underneath the main banner. Paricipants who upload video related to the assignments will receive a one-time $50 product bonus!
*Due to shipping constraints, the Hero Kit can only be shipped to street addresses in the United States.

- I do not think they are doing a new challenge after this one. There has not been enough interest! This is an unfortunate thing. It is always sad when a company that helps families in so many wonderful ways has to stop doing such wonderful things as the challange becasue of lack of interest. It is terrific that you have been able to start a new Live, Laugh, Love club. Good luck with it's success!

Comment by Heather Blake on January 1, 2010 at 8:20am - Don't you hate it when you hit send & then catch a spelling mistake...It was "inspirational" (our 1st Live, Laugh, Love Club). We made Time Capsules out of Quaker Oats containers to hold misc ticket stubs, school programs, favorite little clothing, etc. that we will accumulate in 2010. I've been using OUAF products for years now, but recently moved to somewhere that hadn't heard of it yet. It is becoming the buzz of the moms at school now. YEAH!!!! It's so great to find like-minded women who like doing what you're doing, you excite each other & we end up getting even more done for our families.

- Is there a Winter Challenge starting today? I just started a Live, Laugh, Love Club, had an insirational first club a week ago, we placed a HUGE order last night & are raring to go! I've got a couple ladies who want to start the challenge with me right away, is it on? Lorlee, it's taken me some time, waiting for a little baby to be big enough for Mommy to have more of a life, please tell me it's not too late!

Comment by Heather: "In regards to previous challenge participants who received the pre-selected happyhome hero kit & silk album for adding video- would we not receive the new personalized happyhome hero kit or the one-time $50 product bonus for adding video? Just wondering...thanks!"
Repeat participants are eligible for the video bonus of $50 in OUAF products. The Hero kits (no matter what the configuration) are only issued one time. Thanks for allowing us to clarify this!

No Nag Nirvana
Yes, wouldn’t that be like heaven? You walk around the house and without saying a word, backpacks, toys and clothes are picked up…dishes are cleared off the table and towels are hung back on the towel rack. Dirty clothes actually go into the dirty clothes basket and you no longer walk into the kitchen [...]
The Power of Unexpected Kindness
The idea of Door Knob Drops came from my sister, Teri, who lives with her two boys in Moraga, California. One year there were several kids on their street that were graduating from some school or another; sixth grade, eighth grade or twelfth grade. Teri and her boys put together some very simple [...]
What Would You Do?
Last night my boys, Dylan and Travis, were helping me cut out Bingo Boards and put together Bingo Button sacks. It was really late and I was trying to get everything photographed for this first Five in One Family Fun email. Normally they go to bed by 9:15 but it was 9:30 and I hadn’t [...]
