Kids are absolutely incredible! They go to school, play sports, take dance lessons, create art projects, do homework and play games. Kids do it all, every day, in ways that leave parents tired just watching! They can’t do it alone though – kids depend on nutritious meals and snacks to keep them healthy, alert and full of energy.

How are your kids incredible? Do they help you prepare healthy meals? Do they plant their own vegetables? Do they play sports outside or turn your living room into a dance party? Show the Gather Community how INCREDIBLE your kids are and you could win a $50 AMEX gift card. Gather Editorial will choose the top (3) “Incredible Kids” entrants to receive a gift card.

Can you enter more then one Incredible Kid?
☀ Aunt Shanny Sep 2, 2008, 1:59pm EDT
What about incredible kids that ARE NOT our own, such as a niece or nephew?
I wonder if my 'incredible' kid would allow me to take some pix......somehow I doubt it, but I'll try, lol.

Hi everyone!

I'm so happy to see all of the excitement here! Let me answer a few questions.

1.) Yes, you can enter more than one kid (you can also enter more than once for the same kid)
2.) Yes, the kid can be a niece or nephew/grandkid, etc.

Have fun!
Sharon B. Sep 2, 2008, 4:43pm EDT
cool
Jill~Sexy Back~ V. Sep 2, 2008, 4:53pm EDT
Well, my son is definitely incredible. But, I don't post photos of his face online (you never know who's looking these days!) but I do have some shots of him doing incredible things that only show the back of his head, would those be ok?
Carol P. Sep 2, 2008, 5:07pm EDT
What about my son who I lost five years ago? If not, it's OK, just thought I would ask.
Lacey K. Sep 2, 2008, 6:32pm EDT

Oh! I am so happy I can enter my grandchildren. This is a great group anyway. My grandson fought hard the obesity problem in High School, but he won. He is 19 now, and staying on top of it. Thanks for the contest. Ellen B

Donna T. Sep 8, 2008, 8:00pm EDT
confused here --- Are the kids supposed to be DOING the incredible activities? Or just pics of kids?
Alta B. Sep 8, 2008, 10:35pm EDT
I added a picture of our 3 boys!
Bridget ♥ Sep 9, 2008, 4:01pm EDT
Donna, it's suppose to be pictures of kids doing "incredible" things! :)
Donna T. Sep 12, 2008, 1:05am EDT
ok - thanks Bridget!
Donna T. Sep 12, 2008, 1:05am EDT
My kids don't do anything incredible. Unless you include getting up for school in the morning! hahaha.......... I crack myself up!
Leah A. Sep 12, 2008, 10:59am EDT
Stefanie, I had the same question as Jill and for the same reason. Is it alright and will it still count in the contest if you can't see their face?
Sherrie H. Sep 13, 2008, 9:27am EDT
Great idea!
Cyndi B. Sep 15, 2008, 5:30pm EDT
Pictures may not show up for a bit since this group is moderated - once the pictures are approved for the group you will be able to see them.

I just posted a few pics of my amazing, incredible son :)
Elaine S. Sep 16, 2008, 6:39pm EDT
cool
Lacey K. Sep 20, 2008, 10:20am EDT

j - Frugal Mom - r. Sep 22, 2008, 4:25pm EDT
I was wondering, if I am looking the wrong place for the winners.
.* Sandi * Sep 22, 2008, 5:07pm EDT

Still waiting...
Bridget ♥ Sep 24, 2008, 5:20pm EDT

Did I miss it?
j - Frugal Mom - r. Sep 25, 2008, 2:13pm EDT
Maybe the date is wrong and it is actually supposed to be tomorrow Friday Bridget.
jackie c. Sep 25, 2008, 6:51pm EDT
i dont think they have said who the winners are yet
Connie C. Sep 25, 2008, 7:40pm EDT
They were supposed to announce the winners but have not done so yet, to the best of my knowledge
j - Frugal Mom - r. Sep 26, 2008, 12:59pm EDT
Well, who can argue with that conclusion Cindy.
Victoria H. Sep 26, 2008, 4:05pm EDT
Please, please, please announce the winners soon! I am dying of curiosity! I come here multiple times every day to see the announcement.
Bridget ♥ Sep 26, 2008, 5:13pm EDT
I agree with Cindy, ALL of our kids are incredible!
Bridget ♥ Sep 26, 2008, 5:14pm EDT

Mc Lovin - Loves to rate. Sep 30, 2008, 7:40pm EDT
Maybe they forgot...
Tiffany G. Oct 1, 2008, 2:07am EDT
funny to me they can post more giveaways but not announce winners of the previous ones.. kinda getting annoying.. reminds me of BT
arlene (no shame in my game) w. Oct 1, 2008, 10:35am EDT
I smell fraud.
Lacey K. Oct 4, 2008, 8:01pm EDT
This is ridiculous.
