Yes, yes, yes! Math IS Fun!

Family Math Night (tag line: discover the wonders of math...together)

I am a teacher, author, and entrepreneur. This project encompasses the teacher and entrepreneur. I conduct Family Math Nights at schools and I am beginning to market them as open-the-box-and-go KITS. Teachers are BUSY and so are parents. So I'm doing the work for them. You can get more of an idea about the project by visiting http://kidnexions.com/familymathnight.htm

Too often math is boring. I want to show that it doesn't need to be that way. I also want to bring families and educators together in an environment that is fun and hands-on.

I want an awesome logo to help launch this project. My goal is to have Family Math Nights across the country...and eventually worldwide!

Target Audience: Teachers who want to provide a fun math event for their families at their school but who don't have the time to put it together.

Administrators who want to focus on getting families involved in a math event.

Parents who want enrichment for their kids.

Family Math Night focuses on kindergarten through sixth grade. All activities are hands-on and take families beyond adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing into discovering patterns, building geometric designs, creating projects to take home, etc.

Family Math Nights will be held at a school site or a church or other facility.

Family Math Night is a fun event where families get together to discover really cool stuff in math through hands-on activities.

I'd like the title and tag line along with a drawing of some sort. I lean towards very simple lines but am open to anything.

I'd like the logo to be kid-friendly, but not over-the-top kiddie. After all, sixth graders will be a part of this and I don't want them to feel they're too old for this. Fun, kid colors...no black.

What I want the logo to "say":
-MATH IS FUN
-Doing math together is even more fun
-Mathematics is a beautiful "language"; it is filled with really cool discoveries

Where the logo will be used:
-website (note: we may be changing the color of our website, so don't use that as a reference)
-All materials used in the Family Math Night activities
-On the box that contains all the FMN materials
-Possible letterhead
-A large banner to be displayed at trade shows

Desired image formats:
Print file format - .ai, pdf (300dpi) (CMYK)
Web file format - .png (RGB)

No clip art or stock images please. Have fun and be creative!
