KIP: Bringing out children’s originality

The Kids’ Imagination Project, Abrakadoodle’s global campaign to promote creativity, is demonstrating the power of children’s imaginations. The art (left) by Nate, age 9 of Grand Rapids, Michigan is aptly titled, “Nothing wrong with being different.” This sentiment expresses a truth about the visual arts – not only is there nothing wrong with being different, but it is good for children to embrace their uniqueness and originality!

In addition to the joy and sense of accomplishment children feel when they create their own art; another amazing benefit of an arts connection for kids is developing an appreciation for art creations by other artists (of all ages) and tolerance for the ideas expressed by others. The Kids’ Imagination Project is connecting kids around the globe. The art “Mermaid” (right) by Francisco, age 9 of Lisbon, Portugal, is a sketch of how he imagines this mythical creature. “Imagine” is the theme for this inaugural KIP campaign.

Any child can participate in Abrakadoodle’s Kids’ Imagination Project (children can send in more than one piece of art, too)! To learn more about KIP or to download a postcard, go to www.abrakadoodle.com/kip.htm.

We are frequently featuring new children’s postcard art from creations submitted to Abrakadoodle’s world headquarters. This week’s art features original creations by (top, left) Monique, age 6 of Miami. Off to London town where we encounter within the Royal Collection 3 Faberge Eggs. Drawing inspiration from the Royal’s treasures we uncovered the art of jewelry making and experimented with model magic while discovering the streets of London. Artwork (center, right) was submitted by Andrea, age 11 of Portugal. Andrea is a student at an art school located in Cascais, near to Lisbon.
