Tickets to see “Guess How Much I Love You” at Walton Arts Center

Note from the mams: Congratulations to Becky Upshaw, winner of the WAC tickets!

Happy Monday, mamas. This week’s giveaway is PERFECT for those of you with little ones — kids who may not have yet seen a show on stage at the Walton Arts Center. One of the sweetest children’s books we know — Guess How Much I Love You — will come to life on stage December 14, 2012 at 6:30 p.m. Speaking from experience, we can tell you that watching your son or daughter see a show on stage for the first time is a really special milestone. Their eyes light up and they never forget it. Pure magic.

We’ve got four tickets to see the show, and we’re pairing these tickets with a gift card for lunch or dinner at our favorite pizza place on Dickson Street — U.S. Pizza. It’s just steps away from the Walton Arts Center and the food and atmosphere are perfect for a family outing.

ABOUT THE SHOW: Based on the classic book by the same name, this show is about a bunny named Little Nutbrown Hare. He loves Big Nutbrown Hare as far as he can reach and as high as he can hop, but Big Nutbrown Hare loves him as far as his long arms can reach and as high as his strong legs can hop. This show is perfect for kids who are aged 3 to 6, but please note that this is also an infant-friendly performance, so there’s no need to get a sitter since you can bring baby brother or sister along, too.

If you don’t already own the picture book, we’d recommend checking it out at the library or picking up a copy so you can read it to your kids before they see the show. They’ll love watching the book unfold on stage.

ABOUT THE FOOD: Even the pickiest eaters in the family love U.S. Pizza. Their food has become legendary in Northwest Arkansas, and we especially like the variety they offer. If you’re not in the mood for pizza, there are award-winning salads and sandwiches on the menu, too. Click HERE to see the menu online.

I love spending time outdoors in the fall and spring when the weather is just perfect and everything around me is so beautiful! We try to go camping and hiking as often as possible to enjoy it. In this busy world, it can be difficult to appreciate that we live in one of the most wonderful places in the world!

  29. I love my kids, my amazing husband, my parents, my friends, living in NW Arkansas, and Jesus!

  30. I would love to take my girls. My 1st grader loves to read and would love this so much.

  31. I love this story! One of my students bought this for my oldest son before he was born, so it was the first book I ever read to him. I always say “How much does mommy love you?” He always answers “to the moon and back!” I get to love on my four-year-old and four-month-old everyday and I get to send my love to Heaven to my triplet sons. All five of my sons have been the most miraculous gifts in my life! There is nothing I love more!!

  32. Coffee, cinnamon, laughing with good friends, snuggling with my husbands & kids, and sleeping in!

I love their hearts, their laughter, their jokes (they’ve entered the stage of REALLY funny), their conversation, their opinions, their athletic skills, their hugs, and their smiles. I love watching my husband with them as well. All such a blessing! I’m also a fan of diet coke and naps! lol 🙂

  35. When my 13 year old was just a baby …I read that book to her every night…I even have a picture of her at 3 months old holding it with me while reading it to her…I LOVE that picture soo much…now my 5 year old always says to me she loves me to the moon and back…LOVE LOVE LOVE

  36. I read this book to all 3 of my children and still have it. Would love to go on a date with them and enjoy making another memory with them.

  37. I love creating new holiday traditions with my own family especially ones designed to instill a sense of peace and calm during Advent – the season leading up to Christmas. It seems as if everyone is rushing so I love to take a step back. We hang a few ornaments each night, curl up on the couch, read a bit of the Christmas story, talk about our day and try to escape the madness of shopping season!

  38. Great giveaway!! I love…everything about my kids, Dr. Pepper, cuddling with my husband, movies with fiends, Christmas…I could go on.

  39. I love my Caylie more than anything in the world! She would love to see this show!

  40. I love watching my beautiful miracle blessings play with each other…nothing can make me weep faster than seeing the love between my amazing daughters. They were both worth all the trials we went through for them to arrive, and it’s obvious God made them for each other.

  41. I love my grandkids to the moon and back! They are my bright and shining stars that light up my life!What a joy to be able to take them to a WAC show!

  43. I love my 2 boys, the joy to my heart they give, my Husband & BFF, the moments we are all snuggled on the couch on Family night watching a great movie, I love when they call me “Momma” and when they smile!!
