The 24th of November is the 150th anniversary of the publication of Charles Darwin’s work, “On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life.” To celebrate this important anniversary, Charlie’s Playhouse, maker of evolution-inspired toys, play things and apparel, is inviting us all to ask our kids (age 4 to 10), “What is evolution?” They are hoping this will spark family discussion about evolution.

For this “Ask the Kids” project, submit a video or written statement with your child’s very first answer to this question. To thank parents for their participation, video submissions will get a coupon code for 20% off in their store and written submissions will get a code for 10% off. Deadline for submissions is November 16th, 2009. Visit the Ask The Kids! page to see what answers have been submitted so far, for project rules, for release forms and to submit your kids’ answers.
