A new site called Dream Mining was launched recently and I thought it had such a cool concept. Dream Mining is a place where kids can go to develop and nurture their dreams. When you first log on to dreammining.com, you’re introduced to the Dream Mining girls. There’s Lilly, who loves to sing but has a bit of stage fright. Ella’s passion is film, but her classmates don’t quite get her. And Sarah wants to be a fashion designer, but has some big fashionista shoes to fill.

All three girls have very different dreams, but each face obstacles in their journey to attaining them. And they never give up.

And that’s what Dream Mining is all about. It’s a place where young people can go to discover their dreams and passions and they’ll be encouraged to go after them. I think this is so important for young people: to feel as if there are no limits to what they can achieve. That any dream, whether it’s to become an Olympic athlete, a famous actress—or yes, even a cheerleader—isn’t out of reach.

Even though I’m an adult (or so they tell me) I have to admit, the site is really fun! It’s geared toward 8-12 year olds (however, I just spent over an hour on there myself, creating an avatar and playing dress up and makeovers; check out my avatar below! How cool is she?), and users can enjoy a ton of stuff while there. There are music videos, games, avatars that you can dress up and more!

But one of the coolest things on the Dream Mining website are the original books based on Lilly, Ella and Sarah. Through the books, readers will get to know the girls and join them on their journey to attaining their dreams. And if you buy a book for $4.99, you win 500 dream dollars! Dream dollars that you can spend on avatar clothes and accessories!

So log on today, create an avatar and get in touch with your “kid” side. You never know…it could help you discover your dreams!
