Kids
-
Kids can create PowerPoint presentations just for fun. Use the presentation for developing a story with images. Kids can then tell the story as they click through the slides and explain their creations. PowerPoint is a way to stay in contact with friends and family. During a weekend or vacation, help the children develop slides. Add photos they have taken themselves and encourage them to write text for the slides. Then, send the PowerPoint to friends and family by email. Another fun activity is to make a collection of riddles or a mystery story. Kids can also make a collection of their favorite drawings. The main goal is for the children to have fun working with PowerPoint.
School Presentations
-
Create fun PowerPoint school presentations. Kids can brainstorm and select topics that interest them, such as a favorite animal, the solar system or historic places. Have the kids spend a few days researching, writing, finding images, editing and rehearsing their PowerPoint presentations. Kids can discuss how to give the best presentations and provide positive feedback. Watching other kids' presentations and working on their own can combine to give kids confidence, communication skills and a chance to have fun while learning.

Business
-
Business meetings can include PowerPoint presentations. Most topics benefit from an entertainment aspect. Humor is one method of relaxing the participants so they can retain more information. Scout out entertaining and imaginative material, including quotes, images and stories. Try to find ways to engage the viewers' senses. An image of refreshments, such as tea, coffee, fruit and pastries, can be shown at the same time as refreshments actually arrive for the viewers. This blend of an image with the senses of sight, smell and taste help make the presentation fun and memorable, besides effectively communicating business topics.
Community Organizations
-
Organizations give presentations to inform the community, request resources, offer services and develop ideas. An organization's staff must present the same information many times to many different community leaders. PowerPoint presentations relieve the presenter by conveying the information, and letting the presenter focus on audience response. Presenters can involve the audience in enjoyable activities, even if the topic is serious. Show photos of natural beauty from the area. Include images of community members who are making a contribution. Images and inspiring words can invite audience members to contribute to a community effort.
