Well, we've got a whole host of ideas, big and small, wacky and not-so-wacky, but all having one most important thing in common - they're all sure to raise lots of money and make a difference to the lives of disadvantaged children and young people across the UK!
It's really easy -think of something that you would enjoy doing and we'll help you find a way to raise money with it - just order a fundraising pack and you can get loads of ideas to make it fundraising success!
And why not get your whole school involved? Loads of schools all around the country have been emailing to tell us what they're getting up to.
Our special School's section is bumper-filled with ideas to ensure you and all your friends have fun kick-starting your fundraising and being part of one of the UK's biggest children's Appeal!
You can also find lots of ideas on the How 2 Fundraise site.
Why not try a sport - it's fun and energetic and whilst you're enjoying yourself, you can be earning those all important pennies. Have a mini-tournament, dress-up whilst you're playing or even get those teachers and family grown-ups to get involved too! Here's some more info.
Or how about having a sleep-over with your friends. Or you could bake cakes or make anything else and then sell them to your family and friends...
You could also take part in a sponsored run or a Talent Contest.
Check out the How 2 Fundraise site for useful information on all these ideas and more!
Don't forget to get your bandana if you haven't already. Pop along to Asda, Boots or go to bbcshop.com to get your very own Pudsey bandana!
Or you could even make your own Pudsey bandana.
Plenty of people are already being creative with theirs, wearing them in all sorts of ways and even using them as table cloths for their cake sales! How will you wear yours…?
