The Media Moms Twitter Party

Ever wanted to get your kids on TV or in print? It is hard to figure out what is scam and what isn’t without knowing the industry. We’ve got the experts for you to ask all your hard hitting questions.

First, we have Clair Simon from Simon Casting Casting for Film, Television, Theatre and Commercials.  She offers a creative eye, an attentive ear, and a vast knowledge of our abundantly talented acting community.  Follow her on twitter here.

    I am so entering my 4 yr. old in this contest!

    Well, it seems that they were in Langhorne , Pa this past week end so I missed it, That is the closest that they are coming to Pittsburgh. But this is the first I ever even heard of RAGS, so actually, I just learned about the whole thing just now. I am excited. I love wholesome programs for my 3 yr. old and 1 yr. old to watch.

    I learned that my kids love the website

    I usually don’t enter contests, but I’ll give it a try : ) I’ve tweeted about the party here: Original Tweet: http://twitter.com/NYCityMama/statuses/2110861514

    And I am following all parties now on twitter. I guess my question is: How do you know you’re kid is (or isn’t) “t.v friendly”? Like, for example, if your child is hyper, as my 4 and 2.4 can be, is it correct to automatically write them off?

    Second question: when is it a good age to think about your kids in show biz?

    Thanks!

    My dd graduates nursery school and will be performing Monday at her school. I’ve got my camera loaded and ready so I can shoot some good video for the audition

    My daughter loves her Raggs sampler DVD that we got at BlogHer, she calls it the “Dog movie”. I checked out the site, the plush dolls are all so cute!

    Hope I can figure out how to catch your twitter party on June 17th. I’m so confused!

  16. Selfish Mom on June 15th, 2009 1:35 pm

    I learned that they have free shipping for orders over $49. I’m all about free shipping.

  17. Michelle Benson on June 15th, 2009 3:38 pm

    Never thought I would be one to enter my kid in acting. But having a child with such animated expressions I think she would do well. I am excited to give the contest a shot. I think more shows should have “open contests” like this. Gives everyone a chance to be found.

  18. Marianna on June 15th, 2009 8:17 pm

    My son loves the Raggs radio and coloring pages on the site! @mannabsn
