Big & Mini is challenging you to try something new, fun, and productive!

This week, we challenge you to...

Not use social media for a whole week! That’s right, the whole week! If you accomplish it, let us know through an email or social media (after you complete the challenge, obviously!) We may just feature you on our website or social media page (with your permission, of course!)

Thank you!
