June 15 is Imagine Learning’s sixth birthday, and what’s a birthday party without presents? To celebrate our successful past and bright future, we’re giving away one Imagine Island DVD set (a $70 value) to six lucky winners.
To enter, simply create a caption for one of the following illustrations in the comment box below. Be sure to include the picture number before your caption, so we know which one you’re referencing. Enter as many times as you’d like.
We will announce six winners (one for each candle on our cake) on June 22, so check back here to see if you’ve won. First prize will go to our favorite caption, and the other five winners will be selected at random. So start submitting those captions — the more you enter, the better your chances of winning!
Open to residents of the 50 United States. One winner selection will be decided by Imagine Learning Inc. and five other winner selections will be conducted by random drawing from all eligible entries on June 22. Entries that Imagine Learning Inc. judges as spam or irrelevant to the contest will not be eligible for selection.
