Be a part of this new anthology in conjunction with Mary Haley. Baby Giggles is looking for writers, mothers, fathers, grandmas, and grandpas to add their unique and funniest baby stories to this book.

Baby Giggles is accepting stories 600 to 1200 words long from each stage of a baby’s development. The Baby Giggles contest will judge stories postmarked by April 1st 2005. Each writer whose story is selected for the book will receive two copies of the book.

Make your story 600 to 1200 words in length, double-spaced. Please submit your stories with a title page that includes:

• Name, address, phone number and e-mail;
• Story Title, we may change it for consistency sake.
• Where you heard about the contest and any organizations, writing or baby care that you belong to;
• We will contact you by mail if you win and keep you updated on the printing date of the book;
• Number of words.

Use your imagination, or here are some stories ideas:

• All those firsts; first smile, laugh, crawl, walk, word and pickle.
• Sleep deprivation.
• Feeding disasters, what is baby cereal made of anyway?
• Siblings and pets add spice to the mix.
• Grandparents, do we need to say more?
• Travel stories, there’s a challenge.
• Holidays and first birthdays.
• Write a story of the emergence of your baby’s personality.
• Remember we are going for a laugh and a smile in the size of story a parent has time to read.
