    I like the 3rd and 5th one

    What I like in the 3rd poster is the background texture. The 5th poster looks really fresh and friendly...

    change question add more color to third one.

    Posted on Nov 16, 2009 at 12:29 PM

    Hi Kevin,

    I prefer the third one down.

    I would maybe try and get some more christmas feeling in there. Maybe by drawing in red and green pencils?

    Maybe have something said other than what you currently do? I thought it is dear to see kids writing, then I read the question. Why would the kids ask if he is his friend, for of course he is. Why not say something related to the music, like I hope you listen to the words from our heart, or I pray this song to you. On this christmas day...

    Maybe add a drawn star, a drawn present, a drawn reindeer....? Just to bring Christmas in there a bit more?

      good idea to add a star or maybe a present. The idea of the note was how little kids (at least way back when I was a kid before the beginning of time) used to pass notes like this back and forth. My thought was that as you say, of course Jesus is there best friend so he would mark it right away. Maybe that doesn't come through though. And of course technically preschoolers cannot write either! Any other opinions on the note?

      Hi Kevin, I guess I was just a bit spooked. Considering jesus has passed away, so how is it he could mark it. I get the wrong vibe from it. Even though the question is fitting to the title. (Maybe it's just me.)

    it's a MUSIC program - i'd never have known!

    Posted on Nov 17, 2009 at 6:27 AM

    You really need to get the musical message across!

    1 and 2 too vague and garish (I like the chewing gum comment!); 3 too text-heavy for preschoolers; 4 my favourite, 5 good too. But MUSIC!

    Add the Star of Bethlehem to #3

    Posted on Nov 17, 2009 at 9:52 AM

    Just to give it a hint of Christmas I would add the Star of Bethlehem in the upper right created using the hand drawing technique used for the figures. I like the Yes or No. I can remember using that one myself in school!

    Fist concept is the best

    Posted on Nov 18, 2009 at 8:11 AM

    I like your first concept the most. I would get rid of the cd but other than that, I think it works for your purposes.
