Penguins of Madagascar Giveaway!

08.04.2010 by Girl on Fire //

This giveaway is now closed.  The winner was Author: Sue, Comment: My son just said Skipper. Thanks for the giveaway!

My girls absolutely LOVE Penguins of Madagascar!  You know who loves them the most though?  The J-Man!  We watch the movie, the cartoon…we can’t get enough of those witty sarcastic penguins!

Lauren has had an obsession with penguins since she was a baby, so when the Penguins of Madagascar came out we were all over it.  I even have a penguin tattooed on me because of Lauren!

Right now, in specially marked boxes of General Mills Cereal you can get some penguin fun for your own kids (or yourself and significant other for that matter!)

Inside specially marked boxes of General Mills cereals, you’ll “commence operations” with one of five characters from The Penguins of Madagascar; Skipper, Rico, Kowalski, Private or King Julien. Each participating cereal contains one character launcher with mission details outlined on the back of the box including:

  • Dive In, Soldier – Set an empty plastic cereal bowl on the table and try to pop your launcher into it. Wear a helmet or you’ll be squid bait.
  • Longest Propulsion Launcher – Challenge your troops to see who can launch their character the furthest. Go long or go back to the zoo.
  • Target Practice – Create a landing zone with a spoon and try to strategically drop your character into the sweet spot. Hit the target or go back to the drawing board.
  • Clear the Wall – Do you have enough projectile pop to push your launcher over the top of the box? Proceed launchin’ troops, earn those wings!

Emma and Lauren were having so much fun with the launchers. It was easy for them to do without help which is a huge plus in my book! I had flying penguins all over the living room!

The kids love Trix cereal and have almost devoured the entire box!  We are about to watch The Penguins of Madagascar Operation: DVD Premier for the billionth time and the penguins are being launched again in anticipation!  I think I need to run for cover!  Before I do….here is a giveaway for you!

The Giveaway!

A Penguins of Madagascar prize pack which includes one box of Trix cereal, a Penguins of Madagascar launcher and the new Penguins of Madagascar movie, The Penguins of Madagascar Operation: DVD Premier.

I don’t know any kid that would not be thrilled to get this in the mail!

Main Entry:  Tell me who you or your child’s favorite character is from the Penguins of Madagascar.  Ours is Skipper.  I think that character is so hilarious!

Bonus Entries:  You must complete the main entry before doing any of the bonus entries. Leave a separate comment for each bonus entry!
