Posted on: Monday, 15 December 2003, 06:00 CST

MORRISTOWN, N.J., Dec. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- This holiday season, the perfect gift for each member of the family may also be the most useful and appreciated: communications tools from AT&T.

When suddenly it strikes shoppers

That their gifts can be fab!

From granny to teeny boppers

They all like to gab ...

Regardless of whether your students are in grade school or college, the AT&T PrePaid Phone Card is a gift the giver can enjoy as much as the recipient. Giving AT&T PrePaid Phone Cards to the kids gives Mom and Dad the security of knowing their children can reach them from any phone. For college students on campus, prepaid cards are as essential as meal tickets. And for those budget-watchers on the list, the AT&T PrePaid Phone Card is an excellent way to get and give value. AT&T PrePaid Phone Cards are available online and at thousands of retailers including Wal-Mart stores.

For Susie and Johnny, the choice is not hard,

While learning at school, they can also get smart,

By calling with the help of a prepaid phone card

Purchased at stores including Wal-Mart.

Grandma and Gramps are usually among the toughest people to shop for. However, being able to call you and the kids anytime they want, using an AT&T PrePaid Phone Card may be the most thoughtful gift they'll receive this holiday.

The freedom of calling, whether morning, noon or night

For granny and gramps, will make them rejoice

It's the gift that you're certain will always fit right

And it's just what they wanted: the sound of your voice.

Among the most exciting activities for kids most certainly involves the Internet and the sites that feature games, entertainment and sports. Now, parents can buy specialty cards that use AT&T PrePaid Web Cents(R) technology, for the purchase of online content. The specialty-content cards available at Wal-Mart include online content from Disney's Blast(R) -- with more than 100 games and activities; Disney's Toontown(R) Online -- a multiplayer 3D online game for kids and families; Fantasy Sports Season Pass from CBS SportsLine.com(SM) that features fantasy games including football, baseball, basketball or hockey for those 13 and older; the MobileCraze Ringtone Card that allows mobile phone users to reflect their own style and personality with more than 6,000 ring tones, more than 100 games, as well as screen images, funny voicemail and mobile phone accessories; and GameBlast from Shockwave.com that offers instant access to a huge collection of the Web's best games and puzzles. Your kids will be thrilled with the gift of AT&T PrePaid Web Cents, and you can be assured that they are entertained at familiar, family-friendly Internet sites.

For children who are often Internet bound,

Parents needn't be watchful or in any way tense,

Because destinations like Disney are safely renowned,

And safe with AT&T PrePaid Web Cents.

AT&T offers a variety of plans from one with a rate as low as 10 cents per minute with no monthly fee, to a long distance unlimited plan that allows you to call anyone, anywhere at anytime in the U.S. for a flat rate of $29.95 per month.

There's certain to be the plan precisely designed for your lifestyle and budget, so giving yourself the gift of gab can be the gift that gives you joy all year long.

The New Year's resolution that most resonates,

Is one that's impossible to fail or to knock:

When he or she freely communicates,

And does so without watching wallet or clock.
