Planet Earth Appears in the Distance
The liquid portal was our crossing point into the Milky Way Galaxy and since that adventure – nearly two weeks ago – our flight has been rather uneventful. But that is good. The mishap in the portal left our KC craft functioning, but damaged. Luckily, Bibbs has proven to be extremely helpful to Pawz and Koda in repairing the wiring and structural problems. With our entrance into Earth’s atmosphere just weeks away, we will need our ship running perfectly.
Yesterday Carlotta informed the team that Earth is now within site on our high-powered horizon scope. Naturally, the energy on the ship is buzzing with excitement. There is much to look forward to.
When Ecnar Ongi destroyed the Gorfian portal hundreds of years ago, our planet was devastated. Gorf was a beautiful planet before that point, much like Earth actually. Back then, our air was clean and our oceans were purple – but our oceans are meant to be a beautiful purple color. Think of your lovely amethyst stone. The amethyst is so translucent and sparkly because it is the solid version of our water.
Because Earth and Gorf shared native plants, minerals, and wisdom -- our planets prospered abundantly. But on Gorf, this prosperity made our ancestors vulnerable. Our planet became out of balance and Ecnar Ongi seized this opportunity.
Our portal was destroyed and our ability to share with our friends on Earth was over…until now.

Calling All Beta Testers!
Do you have what it takes to be a Kid Command beta tester?
Beta testers play our games and meet the Kid Command team before everyone else. They provide feedback that allows us to make improvements in those areas.
Not everyone is going to be able to say, “I was there when it all started.” Only the few, the dedicated…the Kid Command Beta Testers!
We are still accepting Beta Testers for a limited time. If your children at home or in the classroom (if you are an educator) are interested in receiving a FREE premium 6 month membership to the Kid Command virtual world upon launch, be sure to follow the link below to start the beta test process.
“Playing the games is really fun and the feedback form is easy and quick. It’s really cool to be one of the first kids to play the Kid Command games”. – Ben, age 9

Hey Parents! Want a Makeover?
A lunch makeover - that is.
According to our friends at Snack Taxi, one million plastic bags are used each minute on our planet. Over the course of a year, enough plastic bags to circle the Earth 63 times are used worldwide.
The waste we put into our kids’ school lunch boxes every day is staggering. And it’s waste that we rarely think about – well, this mom didn’t anyway.
Living eco-consciously can be a challenging undertaking for those of us who desire to make better choices for our kids and our planet, but aren’t quite sure where to start. Well, the trick is to start small. This month we are focusing on the lunchbox.
The next time you pack a school lunch, make sure that you think beyond the good health of your children, and expand that concern to our beautiful planet. It’s time to examine the bad habits that we automatically throw into our carts at the discount store and wake up to new ways of doing things.
Do you use disposable baggies?
Do you buy pre-packaged crackers and fruit snacks?
Do you automatically reach for a juice pouch?
Admit it…you do. We do too! We are not perfect, but we have a willingness to do better and we hope you do too.
The fact is -- the above items contribute to massive amounts of waste for our planet. If you missed the great video in our July newsletter, we urge you to click on the link below. Watch it with your children. It’s an eye-opener.
This month we invite you to visit our friends at these great online stores to learn more about packing an eco-happy lunch. They carry unique and re-usable sandwich wrappers, baggie alternatives, and more! Plus, all Kid Command newsletter subscribers will receive extra savings on any purchases. Just use the discount codes below when checking out.
That link will take you right to the Get-N-Green site and their cool item, the Wrap-N-Mat…which we have tried and LOVE!
Use coupon code: KC to receive a 10% discount on your entire order.
Follow that link to see the awesome Snack Taxi – which was developed by a mother of three who packs over 500 lunches every year! We have tried that product as well and highly recommend it.
Use coupon code: kidcommand09 to receive your discount thru the end of October.
