TIA Hosts Mother’s Day Social Media Promotion
May 1, 2012 | In recognition of the hard work done
by mothers across the country every day, the Toy Industry Association
(TIA) is hosting a social media contest leading up to Mother’s Day (May
13, 2012) to give a few lucky Moms a well-deserved break.
“Mother’s Day is the perfect opportunity for us to show our gratitude
for ‘Mom’ and all that she does for her family,” explained Adrienne
Appell, senior manager of public relations at TIA. “Mothers and
caregivers are encouraged to tell us about their favorite ways to play
with their kids. We’ll share some of our favorite entries on
our website and Facebook pages over the next few days and
weeks. Every entry is a chance to win some fantastic prizes!”
The “How
Does Your Family Play” promotion invites mothers and other
caregivers to submit their 75-100 word entry describing their favorite
playtime activities with their children. No purchase or reference to
toys and games (specific or general) in the entry is required. The
written descriptions (along with optional photos – .jpg format) should
be submitted to toytrends@toyassociation.org
by midnight on May 13th; each qualifying entry will be automatically
entered to win one of these prizes:
- One Grand Prize: $200 American Express Gift Card (the winner may
choose how she wishes to pamper herself – from a trip to the spa to a
shopping spree)
- Two Amazon.com gift certificates ($50 value)
- Four Starbucks gift cards ($25 value)
By entering, contest participants are allowing TIA to use their
entry or excerpts thereof on websites and social media. Personal
information will be protected; no full names will be posted.
