Discount School Supply at NAEYC

Discount School Supply is a proud sponsor of the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC)and this time of year we are busy preparing for the NAEYC Annual Conference being held Nov. 3-6 in Anaheim, CA. Our booth will have free crafts, a wheel of prizes, new products on display, contest entries and friendly Discount School Supply folk ready to answer any questions and listen to educators’ supply needs. Thousands of early childhood educators and professionals will attend the conference to attend workshops, listen to experts in the field, and to visit the display booths of early childhood supply vendors and other companies that serve the education marketplace.

All of the elements in our huge Discount School Supply booth take a lot of coordination and planning to be sure that everything makes it to the conference center on time and all booth areas have all the items they need for a successful show. NAEYC conference time is an especially busy time for the departments who coordinate all of the booth elements: brand marketing, graphics, merchandising, sales, operations, and of course, the travel coordinator for all of us! These crews work day and night to be sure everything for our booth gets set up as planned and that the conference runs smoothly.

One of the most popular areas of our Discount School Supply booth at NAEYC is the make-and-take crafts area. This is where booth visitors can create craft projects for free, using unique Discount School Supply arts & crafts materials, and they can take their adorable creations with them as an idea for future classroom projects. Our wonderful trainers and sales staff are there to assist booth visitors as people explore fun ways to use our products. We also have fun, free giveaways like pencils made from recycled blue jeans and posters, DVDs and more, plus there are cool new products on display.

So if you’re attending NAEYC’s Annual Conference this year be sure to stop by the Discount School Supply booth for some extra fun! And don’t forget to follow us on Twitter as we tweet throughout the show. Special prize clues are given out only via our tweets @School_Supplies on twitter.com.

Hope to see you there!
