Hello, Designers!

 

We have a special request. We're in great need of designs for an upcoming holiday Pack-O-Fun special interest publication.

 

Please send ideas in the following categories:

 

FAMILY

Project ideas that can be made for or with the family.

 

DECOR

Easy-to-make home decor ideas, for both inside and outside. Wall or door decorations, table centerpieces, signs, porch displays, you name it! Characters and fun items, eye-catching/more upscale items, all ideas will be considered.

 

RECIPES

Snacks, treats, desserts, drinks, simple meals. Recipes should be "do-able" for kids (adult assistance is OK, too), or they can be fun, creative ideas that might be served at parties or gatherings.

 

GIFTS

Kids love making gifts for their friends and family members. Help us give them great ideas! Maybe a best friends gift? Something especially for Grandma? For a teacher? We need gift ideas in all categories.

 

PARTY GAMES

Know of any unique games kids can play at holiday parties? Games can be for a few kids -- or for large groups. Prize ideas are also welcomed. Think back to your childhood... what did you play with cousins, or neighbors? Or, consider classic year-round games... can you adapt them to fit a holiday theme?

 

PARTY ACTIVITIES

When they're not playing games at a party, what else can kids do to have fun at holiday parties? Get creative with this one!

GIFT MAKING PARTY

If you were to get a group of five to ten kids together for a "gift making party", what would you have them make? Envision a table set up with excited little ones ready to craft. Now, tell us what they'll make! Please include any and all ideas related to a "gift-making party".

 

WEARABLES

Scarves, hats, mittens, sweatshirts, winter wear of any kind. We're looking for painted designs, easy applique, simple knit or crochet, and "cute" designs kids will love to wear!

Please hurry! We need your help a.s.a.p.!

 

Send ideas, or direct any questions you might have, to Irene Mueller at [email protected]

 

Thanks for your interest in designing for Clapper publications. We look forward to hearing from you!
