Creative Games for Kids: Make Something

Open studios where nothing is graded and every idea counts. Children paint with brushes and stamps, color pictures section by section, make pixel art, lay out comics with speech bubbles, write and illustrate their own storybooks, animate frame by frame with onion skin, design a tiny game with rule blocks, and hide Olly in a scene for someone else to find. A guest's creations stay on this device. Three printable coloring pages bring the art off screen.
