Young author contest


What are your kids doing this summer? When the pool is not an option and outside is burning temperature, are your kids in front of the TV? Or with a PlayStation in their hands?
How about something that will engage their brain, increase their creativity, improve their self esteem and even better, give them the chance to win something?

Get a free basic account at http://Preservemyheritage.com and then have them have fun working at a project to submit to the

Young author contest!
Encourage your kids to capture a slice of their life and times.

Want to know more about your family’s budding author? If so, encourage them to participate in Heritage Makers Young Authors’ Contest this summer and see what life looks like from their perspective!
