Military Children
The Adventures of Mo Celebrates Month of the Military Child
During the month of April, The Adventures of Mo is inviting military kids to share their experiences or personal stories about living in different US states.
Here’s how kids can participate for free:
Create a Scramble game
Every Friday afternoon, a new game will be posted on Mo’s Facebook page about different US states.
Here’s an example:
My name is Steve. I’m 10. My mom is a Sergeant in the US Air Force. I lived in three different states. My favorite was the home of the Grand Canyon. Cacti live there that are taller than me. It’s really hot most of the year so I get to swim a lot. What is this state’s name?
Unscramble these letters –narzoia–or visit www.adventuresofmo.com for the answer.
Submit Scramble games to: info@adventuresofmo.com
Create trivia about any US state and earn $10
Share something that other kids would want to know about any US state that you have lived in that’s not posted on Mo’s website.
Here’s an example:
What state once created a landing strip for Jovians (aliens from Jupiter)?
The state is Wyoming. I lived there when I was 8. My dad is a Captain in the US Air Force.
–Submitted by Michael, age 10.

Create a video
Submit a brief video (15 seconds to 60 seconds) that teaches other kids something about any US state. Click here for examples. Kids may use an avatar to conceal their appearance.
Submit videos to: info@adventuresofmo.com
All children – from military or nonmilitary families – can engage in any of these activities throughout the year. But in April, Mo will give preference to submissions from military kids.
Make sure to download the free eBook, also called The Adventures of Mo, that can be played as a game. It features 50+ adventure stories about a dog and bird who travel on top of a delivery truck (without the driver’s knowledge) to every US state, searching for the owner of a lost key. Kids guess which state the main characters are visiting based on clues in each chapter. They can also track the characters’ journey across the US while learning cardinal directions.
Join Mo on his journey across America. He can’t wait to meet you!
