I'm so almost there. Just a few more places, a few more tweaks, a few more long nights, and this thing is on its way to Editor.
In an effort to make this not only an informative exploration of Alaska with kids, but a fun read, I've decided to add one more cool feature - voices from kids, themselves.
Called "KidSpeak," and similar to to the ParentPoints concept provided by willing grownups, KidSpeak will be real-life, honest, and hopefully endearing accounts by kids about their favorite Alaska stuff. Any stuff is acceptable; activities, restaurants, clothes, airplanes, fishing.....my only requirement is that it comes from their precious little hearts and mouths. There is NO age limit; any child who can utter a sound is welcome to contribute (although mom or dad may have to translate for me).
Specifically, I need KidSpeak about the following subjects:
Favorite activities when it's summer, winter, and in between
Fishing quotes
Wild animal quotes (favorite/non favorite)
Weather
Driving on road trips (strategies/tips from big kids would be great, too)
Favorite restaurants (anywhere in AK)
Cruising (day cruising, and multi-day cruises)
Interested? Send me your kids' quotables, their first names and ages, to: togoak@gmail.com.
Deadline to contribute is Friday, September 28.
Danke!
EK
