It’s Time To Let the Kids Shine This Summer!

We’d like to invite Au Pairs and host children to participate in the Summer Sidewalk Chalk Art Challenge together! The focus is to honor and appreciate the host child experience within the au pair program while creating a bonding experience between child and Au Pair. Agent Au Pair promotes healthy and productive Au Pair and host child relationships and we are excited to hear from the kids this summer!

The deadline to submit your art work is August 1st!

About the Summer Sidewalk Chalk Art Challenge:

1. Host parents must give Au Pairs permission to enter their children into the contest by submitting the Agent Au Pair Photo & Video Release Form. 

2. Au Pairs and host child(ren) plan and create a sidewalk chalk art scene that they can be featured in together. Seek inspiration on our Agent Au Pair Summer Sidewalk Chalk Art Pinterest Board!

4. Host Children answer interview questions from the Interview Questions Sheet. Depending on the age and ability of the child(ren), they may read and write their own answers or be given the question verbally with an adult to document their answers.The goal is to capture the genuine childhood perspective of the Au Pair relationship and adults should refrain from modifying answers.
