The Visitor magazine production team recently hired a new employee. Have you met him yet? He has a pink nose, big ears and a long tail.

Introducing Victor, the Visitor mouse!

KIDS! In 2020, use your 20/20 vision to search for Victor, who will be hidden within the printed pages of the Visitor. For each issue, the first 15 kids to find Victor will receive a gift, sponsored by LivingWell in Silver Spring, Md. 

But wait a minute! It can’t be that easy. In fact, this is not the time to be as quiet as a mouse! 

1. Get your parents to snap a photo of you alongside Victor. (Say, “Cheese!”)
