Tips to Maximize Your Chances
🐰 Make Sure You’re a New Subscriber
This sweepstakes is specifically for new subscribers to Melissa & Doug’s email and SMS list. If you’ve signed up before, your entry may be disqualified. If you’re not sure, try signing up — the system should flag duplicates. Use a fresh email address if needed (one you haven’t used with Melissa & Doug before).
📧 Use Your Best Email Address
Winners are notified by email on March 26, 2026, and you have only 48 hours to respond. Use an email address you check regularly — not an old account you rarely open. Add Melissa & Doug to your contacts so the notification doesn’t land in spam.
📱 Keep Your SMS Subscription Active
You must remain subscribed to both email AND SMS through the entire sweepstakes period ending March 25. If you reply STOP to any SMS from Melissa & Doug before March 25, your entry becomes ineligible. Wait until after the sweepstakes closes to opt out if you choose.
📬 Check Your Spam Folder on March 26
