Calling All Kids - What Are You Thankful For?

Be a part of our Kid-Authored Thanksgiving Day Edition sponsored by the Grunin Center for the Arts!

By Toms River Macaroni Kid November 12, 2019

Calling all kid writers and artists!  Grab your paper and pen, because you just got hired!  This month, Toms River Macaroni Kid will be publishing a special Thanksgiving edition written by you and sponsored by The Jay & Linda Grunin Center for the Arts. 

Here's your assignment:

"It's Thanksgiving! Tell us what are you most thankful for this season."

 Please write a story, poem, or draw a picture!  All submitted entries will be published! 



All entries must be submitted to me (melissaw@macaronikid.com) by Tuesday, November 26th at Noon.  Each entry will be published in our special holiday edition that will be released on Thanksgiving morning.  Please include your name, age, and a photo of yourself. 


All entries will be entered into random drawing for a family for pack of tickets to A Christmas Carol at The Jay & Linda Grunin Center for the Arts on Saturday December 7th at 1PM on the Ocean County College Campus. All Thankful Entries will be listed in Random.org and one winner will be selected.


Please encourage your children to participate.  I have a feeling you'll be thankful you did!
