Kids Be a Famous Writer Contest 2010

Attention kids between the ages of 4-13!

Mrs. P’s Second Annual Writing Contest

Mrs. P’s Magic Library is getting ready to kick off their second annual writing contest. What a great opportunity for kids to showcase their talent and express their imagination.

I highly recommend that every person who knows a child nurture this creativity. Everyone has an imagination – everyone. And children can be the most creative of all. I believe children see what we, as adults, have forgotten how to see. Plus, what a wonderful way to spend time with your child, grandchild or neighbor. Just think how much fun it would be to have your child read “you” their original bedtime story.
