STAY TUNED FOR MORE CONTESTS!
We love reading what you have to say, so we'll have several new writing contests in 2002. Bookmark this page and come back in the new year to learn how to enter the next contest.
COOL PARAGRAPHS | January-February
The Winter Olympics begin on February 8, 2002. Celebrate by telling us about your favorite winter activity. What is it? Why do you like it?
KID REPORTER | March
Try your hand at being a National Geographic for Kids reporter! Dig up the facts on some cool discovery and write a news story about the find. Can't think of one? Try the Titanic, the Inca ice maiden, the Valley of the Golden Mummies, the pirate ship Whydah, or one of those dinosaur discoveries that seem to happen every day.
SYMBOLS U.S.A. | April-May
The terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, reminded Americans that symbols matter. The attacks hit important symbols of American power—the Pentagon and the World Trade Center. And Americans turned to the flag as a symbol of unity. Suppose the President asked you to create a symbol of America's hopes for the future. What would your symbol look like? Why did you choose that design?
DAYDREAM VACATION | Summer
Tired of going to Camp Cold Water or Burning Sand Beach every summer? Pick any place on Earth and tell us why you'd like to spend your summer vacation there.
