If you visit the Kellogg’s website, you can read more about the campaign. There you Jaylin, who is a softball player, Jaylin explains she has been on the field since she was young, as both parents are softball coaches. She offers this advice, “Learn all you can from watching others as well as playing the game yourself. You play how you practice, so put the effort into practice and you will see results in the game.” You can also see the video, and I suggest you grab a tissue or two before you do. The coach is my new hero! He shows such love and respect for his boys, and says he may shed a tear because this will be the last game he gets to coach them. Wow. What a great man!
Be sure to stay current with Frosted Flakes and Tony the Tiger by following him on Facebook as well as on Twitter!

The Show Your Stripes campaign is awesome. I love that Kelloggs is supporting this initiative.
Shell says
So cool to hear about the Show Your Stripes campaign! My boys play multiple sports and we’re big into learning and improving, which isn’t always the same as winning.
Ann Bacciaglia says
My kids were always big sports players. My Son is in College and still plays Basketball on a team. It is a great way to teach kids about working as a part of a team.
Tracy @ Ascending Butterfly says
I agree, win or lose it’s how you play the game that counts! Learning good sportmanship is very important, it builds character and fosters a spirit of teamwork!
Crystal says
You’re right about the video–total tear-jerker. I love it when people devote so much of themselves to things they believe in.
Penelope says
Being part of a team is such a great learning opportunity. There are so many great character building opportunities.

What a wonderful campaign. I always tell my son it doesn’t matter if he wins as long as he tried his best.

I love the positive nature of this campaign. A win will fade but learning to work together, praise each other and be accepting are lessons that will last a lifetime.

It is great that Kellogg’s is doing this. There is so much more to a game than winning.

Melissa Pezza says
I love the Show Your Stripes initiative. I think it’s important for kids to remember that it’s about the way they play more than it’s about winning.

This is so great. Baseball really is the most all American thing out there, in my opinion.
