Get #5MoreNow With John Hancock and Vitality

Did you know that your diet, your exercise habits, stress, and more could be taking years off of your life? According to a survey by the Vitality Institute, on average, most Americans have a Vitality Age (an indicator of health based on various fitness and wellness factors) that is five years older than their actual age. That’s why insurance company John Hancock has teamed up with Vitality to forge a new partnership promoting fitness and health, rewarding you for healthy living– and getting you those five years back!

To spread awareness of their new collaboration, John Hancock and Vitality created the Vitality Village last Wednesday at Grand Central Terminal’s Vanderbilt Hall. I was lucky enough to be able to visit the Vitality Village and check out all of the great things that John Hancock had to offer there–  and I even got to see actor Chris O’Donnell, who was broadcasting a live stream of the event!

There was plenty to see and do at Vitality Village! Attendees were treated to healthy juice samples (and a demonstration of how to make the delicious drink at home) courtesy of Dietitian Nutritionist Keri Glassman, LA Fitness offered free 45-minute boot camp classes, and there were even complementary massages, as well as coffee with John Hancock’s own financial advisors who were on the scene to offer a financial “fitness check”! There were plenty of interactive social media tools on hand to help get the word out about healthy living, like a “Healthy Selfie” photobooth that offered the chance to share a picture promoting healthy habits across facebook, twitter, and more. I also was able to test out the same Vitality Age tester used in the survey I mentioned earlier, and participated in an awesome and fun “fitness trivia game show” for the chance to win a FitBit! Though I didn’t win my round, the show certainly tested my fitness knowledge and helped me realize just how much I still can learn about health and fitness– it’s a good thing I’ve got good teachers in John Hancock and Vitality!
If you’d like to learn more about the new partnership between Vitality and John Hancock, check out the official John Hancock Rewards Life website, and start getting your five years back today!

What’s In Your Easter Basket? Hide’em & Hatch ‘em Eggs

What’s In Your Easter Basket?

IMG_1118

Hide’em & Hatch ‘em Eggs are just adorable for any Easter Basket or “Just Because”. My daughter is going to love finding these on Easter morning and hatching them herself in water. They are also the #1 selling development and educational toy on Amazon January through April.  The Pets GROW right out of their shell when the egg is placed in water (takes 1-3 days). It’s especially exciting for the little ones and all the way up. Hide ‘em and Hatch ‘ems are not your normal grow egg – these are SUPER grow eggs that grow up to 8 times their original size.

Update: So much fun!

If too much chocolate gets into the Easter Basket every year, this is a great choice! Fun, candy-free alternative for Easter egg hunts and Easter baskets, and new hatched pets offer extended play after the holiday. Due to the overwhelming success of our Easter product, SCS Direct Inc. expanded the line to include Christmas Hang ‘em and Hatch ‘ems. Ornaments that can be hatched after the tree comes down for extended holiday play.

The overwhelming popularity of the brand attracted Animal Planet – who contacted us with a licensing agreement to produce super grow animal eggs for them as a means to raise money for its ROAR Foundation.  Animal Planet Hatch ‘Ems contain fun fact cards about each animal to allow children to learn as they play. There are 24 Animal Planet Hatch ‘Ems, 6 Easter Hatch ‘Ems Eggs and 3 Christmas Hang Ems and Hatch ‘Ems. Happy Egg Hatching to All!
