Playgroups USA is looking for members who would like to write and share experiences they have had while participating in playgroups. We would also like to get stories from stay at home moms/dads and from working moms.
We are looking for articles that will help our site visitors better understand playgroups and what to expect once they join a playgroup. Hopefully, your experiences can help encourage others to participate in playgroups. (If you have any other topics that you feel moms may enjoy reading, please feel free to submit something).
Again, if you would like to write an article that could be published in our newsletter and/or on the Playgroups USA website for others to read, you can start by answering some of the questions below.
What do you like most about playgroup?
What kind of activities does your playgroup participate in?
What is your most memorable moment that took place during playgroup?
What are some of the greatest rewards you received from being in a playgroup?
What are some great ideas for keeping members interested each week?
How do you feel Playgroups USA can help more?
Would you recommend playgroups to others? And why?
Do you have any playgroup ideas/tips that are not posted on our site that you’d like to share?
Other interesting topics you could submit are:
• products you have found to be helpful as a new parent
• new holiday traditions
• activities you enjoy with the kids
• anything else you feel might be interesting for our parents and caregivers
If we decide to use your article, we will notify you so you can look out for it! And, we’ll make sure to give you all the credit for writing it.
