You can help! Each time you place an order from the For Small Hands website or catalog during the promotion, your child's school can earn merchandise credit (similar to a gift certificate) when you record the school's customer number at the prompt. We will tally accumulated credits for the school; credit vouchers will be sent directly to the school in January 2009. Schools may redeem their 2008 merchandise credit vouchers until December 31, 2009, against any school order from the Montessori Services school website (www.montesssoriservices.com) or catalog, from the For Small Hands website (www.forsmallhands.com) or catalog, or from any other Montessori Services mailing or flyer.
