Win a 'How to Do (Almost) Everything' kit!

This back-to-school season National Book Tokens invites curious minds to explore, play, and learn with a celebration of skills. The prize centers on a joyful new book designed to spark questions and hands-on experimentation.

The How to Do (Almost) Everything book is a playful companion that invites kids to discover 100 amazing skills, from solving a Rubik's Cube to growing sunflowers, from juggling a ball to magic tricks. It's a pocket-sized mentor built with input from scientists, engineers, artists, and other experts, making learning feel like an adventure rather than a task.

One lucky winner will receive both a copy of the How to Do (Almost) Everything book and an exclusive kit packed with everything needed to try a wide range of activities from the book. In addition, three runners-up will each receive a copy of the book, ensuring more readers get to enjoy the journey of curiosity.

What's in the exclusive kit? It includes juggling balls, a skipping rope, thread for friendship bracelets, jelly beans, sunflower seeds, a pack of cards, a Slinky, and a Rubik's Cube. These items are selected to inspire practical, outdoorsy, life and brainy skills, turning everyday moments into mini challenge adventures that are easy to start and hard to stop wanting to explore more.

Whether a family is reading together on a cozy evening or a kid is testing a new skill on a sunny afternoon, this prize is all about joyful experimentation and the thrill of discovering something new. It's a celebration of curiosity, creativity, and the joy of trying something different—where every small experiment becomes a story worth sharing with friends and family.

Ready to discover their next talent? The book and kit invite children to try new ideas, learn by doing, and celebrate small triumphs along the way, making study time feel like a treasure hunt rather than a chore.

This competition is a celebration of books, learning, and the simple delight of trying new things. Enter with your imagination, and you could be the one to bring home not just a book, but a toolkit of ideas and a little kit full of hands-on inspiration for the next big project.

Good luck, and may your next discovery be just around the corner.
