Get creative!  Think outside the box.

Create fun for young children!

At K is for Kids® literacy events and throughout our Bring a Book, Bring a Friend® for Children’s Literacy Month, (February) the teens will be busy helping younger children register to write their stories and have their photos taken for our Young Authors program, doing face painting, leading scavenger hunts and handing out balloons, beads, prizes and more!

Are you destined to stand out in your career?

K is for Kids® spokespersons learn how to feel more at ease in front of the camera and/or in front of the crowd while promoting our cause:  books for kids!  If your future career — whether it be sports, law, public relations, community activism, etc., means a reporter might be thrusting a mike towards you, whether in the field or in the courts, learn to speak up and be heard while helping other children in your community.

Are you a writer?

Write slogans, press releases, blogs and op-eds (opinion-editorial).  Our teens also videotape K is for Kids® PSAs (Public Service Announcements) and other short video clips – 30-sec., 1-min., 3-min. promoting our cause, books for kids! The teens share their own messages.

Want to learn the basics of ‘business?’

Do you want an intro to the bare bones of business?  From life plans, mission statements and strategic planning, helping us plan projects and seeing them though will show you how actions, both small and large, can have a significant impact on our cause.
