We are getting the Spot Reporter kits ready to send out in April. I hope a few more kids sign up to be Reporters. I think those who have been reporters during the first two years would all say it was a lot of fun. Maybe the best part is getting to know the artists.
Next week we will be announcing a new project for the Bobs time here. I will send out an email with the details but kids and parents might want to start thinking about it. The Bobs have agreed to create a song just for the Spot project. All we have to do is to come up with a title! Then they will make up a song for the winning Best Title. So start thinking now about your favorite, funny, personal song title. More later...!

WANTED: REPORTERS FOR SPOT KIDS!
Wow, the Spot events are coming up fast with the first one next month in Perry on April 22 with David Gonzalez. He will travel to Spencer, Marshalltown, and Iowa City right after that. It is time now to find Spot Kids in all the towns who want to be reporters.
You get a Reporter Kit with an official id card. The requirements aren't difficult. You need to be At least eight years old. You need a parent or other adult who will help you out. When David Gonzalez arrives you can meet him and interview him. After you go to at least one of the events he will be doing, you write a story. You will also get a disposable camera to take pictures.
The reporters from last year all have their stories and photos still on the website. They did a terrific job! You can read their stories on two different pages.
The stories for Tomas Kubinek are here.
And the stories for San Jose Taiko are here.
Thanks Eli, Jessie, Hannah, Katrine, Bryan, Samuel, and Bryce for all your good work. We read those stories and can remember all the fun time we had in Perry, Marshalltown, Spencer, and Iowa City.
Get all the information you need right here.
So, if any of you want to join the awesome group of Spot Reporters, email us at spot@spotkids.com or go to the website.
Oh, one more thing. Be sure you talk to your parent about all this so they know what the project is all about.
We can only have a few reporters so let us know soon if you want to be one.

CAT WITH ITS OWN WEB PAGE!
The Bobs sent some interesting things for us to use on the Spot Kids website as we get closer to when they come to Iowa in May and June. There is one thing that I thought was just too good to keep to myself. Amy Bob has a cat named Sitka P. Coldfoot. And Sitka has his own myspace web page! Go to his webpage and see him in a video, find out how old he is and where he got his name!
