Four fun kids competitions

Involving the family in your comping is a great way to win more prizes – and a fun way to spend quality time creating with the kids. Here are four current competitions that should inspire you to get creative (closing dates from February – August 2017).

Win a trip to Denmark with Lego

Design a new Lego Friends building for Heartlake City and you could win a week long trip to Billund to see your set be made – and even yourself created as a minidoll! You must be registered with Lego, and then use Lego bricks or the online designer to create your building and upload four photos. It’s open to kids aged 6-12 worldwide, but there’s an extra grand prize in the UK of £720 of Lego Friends sets. T&Cs and judging criteria are lengthy, so do have a good read if you’re entering.

Visit the Lego website for more information – the closing date is 28 February 2017 and you must travel on 27 March 2017.

Win a family break to Germany

Have you visited the Kindernauts website? They’ve got a lovely promotion running throughout 2017, where every creative challenge completed gives you an entry into a draw to win a 2-night break for up to 6 people in Germany. To take part, you must be over 21 and entering for a chid aged between 4 and 12.

Each month throughout the year there are three suggested fun activities to do with your child – it could be getting out and about, making masks, or singing! For each one you complete, upload a photo and you’ll get an entry in the prize draw (so you can earn 36 entries in total). Enter at kindernauts.co.uk – a winner will be chosen at random after the closing date of 31st August 2017.

Win £900 of National Book Tokens!

Doodle a book token design for World Book Day and you could win £500 of National Book Tokens for your school library, £200 for you and £200 for your teacher! Download an entry form, create your design and ask your teacher to sign it before posting it off. A panel of judges will select a winner and runner-up in each of three age categories: up to 8 years, 9–12 years and 13–16 years. Runners up get £250 of National Book Tokens for the school, £100 for them and £100 for the teacher.
