For example, a "Code Word of the Day" listen-to-win game is generally conducted daily in which the child must be the designated caller and must identify the "Code Word of the day" that is disclosed periodically throughout that day, with broadcast beginning at 5AM CT. Should a child be the correct caller but have the wrong answer the on-air personality will take the next random caller.

Alternately, there may be a random drawing from among all eligible entries received with the correct answer(s). The specific format will be announced on air.
