Clorox: I don't want to miss this! (Review)

Since my daughter started preschool I have quickly learned that she doesn't want to miss out on anything at school.  Just this morning when I went to clear the snow off the truck and start it to warm it up and all it did was groan at me (dead battery) and I told her she wouldn't be able to go to school today the tears started.  She didn't want to miss out.  Last week when her brother was so sick she kept telling me mommy I'm not sick, Mommy I can't miss school.  She doesn't want to miss out.  Killing germs on our household items and keeping common used areas clean is a great way to keep her from missing out.  Clorox has started a campaign about preventing the flu with the "I don't wanna miss this."  Here is a description of the program/contest below:
Balancing schoolwork with sports practice, play rehearsal, and club meetings complicates any teen's life enough without the added burden of getting sick. The dual risk of the seasonal flu as well as the 2009 H1N1 virus, makes this year's flu season especially complicated. To help spread the word about flu prevention, former American Idol finalist Danny Gokey has paired up with The Clorox Company to launch I Don't Want to Miss…, a national campaign designed to get teens and their teachers involved in flu prevention.
Now in its second year, the program features a contest that invites school musical groups, like glee clubs, show choirs, etc.  to develop a video performance of a song written by Berklee College of Music student Will Wells on what they don't want to miss out on if they were home sick and why prevention is important. The winning school will win a music class led by former American Idol finalist Danny Gokey!
For each entry submitted, Company will donate $100 (up to $10,000) to the Sophia's Heart Foundation, a charity founded by Gokey in honor of his late wife, Sophia, and dedicated to helping children achieve academic success via musical training and restoring
musical dreams in children.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend that children and teens over 6 months and up to age 18 get flu vaccinations. In addition to vaccination, the most important step in flu prevention, disinfecting frequently touched surfaces and washing hands often play an important role in prevention.
 Visit the 
Clorox page on Facebook (www.Facebook.com/Clorox) after January 28 to learn more about this creative and informational challenge or go to the site here for all the rules and entry guidelines.. For the first 100 groups to submit, the teacher will receive a wellness care package from The Clorox Company.
