Explore Your Own Family History Maybe your story is about how you feel about your grandparents. Perhaps they died before you were born or when you very young. What stories have you heard about your grandparents or great-grandparents? |  | |
|
Ask your parents about your grandparents. If your grandparents speak another language, your parents can translate their stories for you. Writing about your grandparents to enter our contest can be a family affair.
If you know people who are your grandparents’ age, you can write about them. You will probably hear some very fascinating stories. Their stories may be real life stories, made up, or even a story they heard when they were children. The next deadline for submittal will be in March 31, 2008. |
