wantAre you a… parent? grandma? caregiver? expecting parent? writer?

…or a human with access to a computer?

MiniBury looking for help this summer! July and August are busy months for our family so we’re looking for guest writers for this blog. There are very few requirements for each post; we just ask that the writing is family friendly, includes topics parents, grandparents, caregivers, etc are generally interested in, and pertains to local content. Before you get too excited, unfortunately you will not get paid (don’t feel bad, no one is paying us either).

If you might be interested, have an idea about writing one piece or several, we’d love to hear from you!

Please email us to learn more!

Here are a few post ideas to get those creative juices flowing:

  • Our family loves to ____ in the summer
  • Favorite creme stand
  • A series on gardening/crafts/projects with kids
  • vacation do’s & don’t’s with kids
  • Current pediatric health topic – any doctors out there want to contribute?!
  • Here’s how I… make it out the door in the morning…get the kids to bed… hike with kids… 
  • recipe ideas add to our local seasonal ideas
  • etc, etc, etc…

Hello, I’m Eliza. I founded MiniBury in 2012 because I had a hunch that I wasn't the only parent in Addison County missing fun family friendly events. I love the challenge of finding and sharing information about our community to other parents.
