Got a creative kid (of the human variety) or know someone who does? Check out this cool new contest especially for the kiddos! Teachers and parents are invited to enter their 3rd-8th grade kids in the 5th Annual Pets Add Life Children’s Poetry Contest!
And why do I think this is so cool? Because your child gets to write a poem about their pet and the joys that come with having a pet in their life! I love sharing opportunities like this one that help kids express their love of pets AND their creativity at the same time!
Six U.S. students (1 per grade level) will each WIN:
- A $1,000 scholarship for each winning student’s classroom
- A $250 gift certificate for pet products
- A “by·line” in a nationally circulated magazine!
