Let's .GIF a round of applause to the Holiday Microproject winners!

Welcome back! It's been a great break but we're excited to be back to announce the winner of the Holiday Microproject. The Holiday MicroProject Challenge was to create a .GIF animation celebrating Mouse Squad or the holidays or both!

Our Grand Prize

The winner of our Grand Prize $60 gift card to Best Buy is JER from Yavneh Mouse Squad in Los Gatos, CA. Their GIF used a great Pacman style animation to wish us all happy holidays! We think their GIF was a great use of different techniques, combining low tech with high tech! We also think there should be more Pacman-themed MicroProjects. This is awesome!

Our First Runner Up

Our first runner up receives a Papertronics Lunar Module, and the prize goes to Golden Eagles Mouse Squad in Oxnard, CA. They submitted six great GIFs, each with a great colorful holiday message! Thanks so sending us so many warm wishes!

Our Second Runner Up

Our second runner up goes to two incredible projects from rrivera188 and amlin188 from the Digi Sharks in New York, NY. Their two GIFs feature parkour and sign language. We love how epic these GIFs are and how much effort went into them! Check this out!

Honorable Mentions

We had more submissions this month than any other MicroProject so far this year! There were so many great submissions we wish we could show them all. We also wanted to show off one moreYanrayeamBay72 from The Eagle Techs in Santa Cruz, CA. Their GIF is very funny and features a lactose intolerant slice of cheese! Watch the GIF to find out what happens.

Thank you to the coordinators and students who participated and submitted such awesome projects! We are looking forward to seeing many more in the future.
