Join Us At The Coins & Kids Booth
After the 2012 Summer FUN convention we posed the question “If we build it, will they come” the answer is YES! FUN is celebrating its fourth Coins & Kids event during the 8th Annual Summer FUN!
As always, the highlight of the booth is the "Spin To Win" wheel and the prizes it provides. The most coveted slot on the Spin It To Win It prize wheel is the chance to pick a coin. Thankfully, our fabulous F.U.N members donate coins to F.U.N's Young Numismatists program allowing FUN's Director Of Youth Activities, Mr. Bonaro to deliver an awesome assortment of collectible coins & exonumia.
However, the little ones still seem to gravitate toward the rainbow of skittles and gold chocolate nuggets offered. We are already scavenging the internet for interesting numismatic themed gifts for our prize boutique in July. If you have any suggestions, we would love to hear from you.
Sharing space in the Coins & Kids booth is our new
Foto Fun area. Our ever-expanding numismatic wardrobe and photo props make this booth an entertaining and enjoyable photo opportunity for people of all ages. Throw caution to the wind and use our photo props at the
Foto FUN photo station to create your Summer FUN photo keepsake. Take a moment to “get in touch with your inner billionaire” and share your photo with your Twitter, Facebook and Instagram friends.
Well, I think Every Picture Tells A Story Our Photo Station & Coins & Kids booth is a real hit. Browse the photos from previous shows.
FUN’s Director of Youth Activities Tony Bonaro & I THANK YOU for participating in all that our new Coins & Kids booth has to offer. We look forward to seeing you at Summer FUN.
Hope to see YOU at the Coins & Kids & Foto Fun booth in July!
