Meet Preston, Metro Parent February 2013 CoverKid – VIDEO
He's high energy and super smart (as you can see from the cover!). Meet the Walled Lake 7-year-old boy who channeled Einstein for our education issue.

Well, we swear: No Lysol was involved in the creation of this cover (just good ol' gel, hair wax and lots of hairspray). But we laughed out loud at southeast Michigan kid Preston's version of what it took to turn into the famous physicist for the cover of Metro Parent's February 2013 Education edition.
You saw the cover – now check out the behind-the-scenes Q&A in our video, just below. With his infectious smile, Preston dishes on his favorite teacher and why he's a natural-born football player. You're also sure to get a kick out of his hilarious tongue-wagging outtakes:
Interested in your kid being on the cover of Metro Parent magazine? You'll want to keep your eyes on the MP Events page.

We hope you'll get your kids involved with the next CoverKids. You never know: The might wind up in the spotlight, too.
