Peeps The Treat

There is a contest to take pictures of peeps, and judges pick the best. (Peeps are my favorite candies in Easter time.) Anyone, anywhere can enter with their parents help at the Shot Page on the National Geographic website. This contest is called Peeps in Places.

If you want to see last years photos click here. (There is also a photo gallery on The Washington Post'sinclude website. Thes images, showing homemade scenes, with peeps, were probably made by artistic adults.)

My favorite photo is the one in Yosemite because it reminds you how pretty the world really is. Last year's winner was taken in Hollywood, which is cute because they hold it up so the bunny is the Y in Hollywood.

Take a Pic of a PeeP

Student Assignment: Anya

Peeps! In all the odd places. Write a story and include a lot of images about this contest from National Geographic Kids. You should also look at the images from the Washington Post and include images from this site. Also, make a list of possible places for students to take pictures of a peep. If you have time, create an Animoto slide show.

Again, remember to include a lot of images (and don't forget photo credits!).
