Any idea how many masterpieces your little Picasso has churned out over the course of her young life? Now is your chance to take your child’s best work and enter it into ALEX Toys’ Ready, Set, Create contest. Kids ages 3-5 are encouraged to submit photographs of their original artwork — everything from crayon drawings to model clay sculptures is eligible– for the chance to win one of three ALEX Toys: the Floor Standing Easel and Paper Roll, Little Hands My Tabletop Easel and Little Hands My Giant Busy Box. And moms, if you’re particularly pleased with the makeshift studio you’ve fashioned out of your kitchen countertop, mesh baskets for all those supplies and egg cartons you’ve recycled into very hungry caterpillars, you have an opportunity to get your 15 minutes in the spotlight. Send in 1-2 paragraphs about how you help encourage your child’s creative side along with your child’s entry. Winning submissions will be displayed on ALEX Toys’ Web site. To enter, become a Fan of ALEX Toys on Facebook. Next, e-mail your submissions to contest@alextoys.com. The deadline is October 15, so roll up those sleeves and get busy!
