Big-Hearted Kid Wanted to Help Give Away 100 Pianos

Schoenhut Pianos, maker of beautiful toy pianos that look just like the real thing, is looking for a big-hearted, music-loving kid who'd like to help them giveaway 100 My First Pianos to children in need. To be chosen for this prestigious honor, children through age 14 cooperate with their parents to prepare a video wherein they must address 5 specific points:

• Why you love music
• How music has made your life better
• How you helped someone else by sharing music with him or her
• How needy children in your neighborhood will benefit by receiving Schoenhut My First Piano II (for children ages 3 to 5)
• Why you (or the child you are nominating) should be the one to give away 100 Schoenhut My First Piano IIs.

The contest starts immediately and continues through June 15. Read the complete details and official rules here.

PlayFair Toys is so supportive of this creative, generous idea, that we're offering a "matching challenge". If a Colorado kid wins this challenge, we're going to (1) donate a Schoenhut "Baby Baby Grand Piano" to the Rocky Mountain Center for Musical Arts in Lafayette, a non-profit, community-based music school founded on the principle of making music available to all, regardless of economic status, and (2) donate a second Schoenhut Toy Grand to a local music school in the community of your choice. But that's not all! The winning Colorado kid will also get a $100 gift certificate to spend at PlayFair Toys store in Boulder. We think you deserve a big pat on the back if you win!

So that's 2 extra pianos, the absolute best toy pianos available, and $100 to the winner, if a Colorado kid wins! So go for it, Colorado kids! Show the world how much you care, and help bring us all together through the joy of music. And although it's not required, I'd love it if you emailed me with your youtube video link! I'll be watching for you!

Yours in music,

Professor PlayFair
