For the first time ever, encourage your kids to doodle in class. There are some great contests floating around the Internet. Allow your students’ creativity to shine by having them enter one of these contests.

Google is sponsoring a doodle contest for their homepage. Kids are encouraged to draw pictures about what they want to be (or accomplish) when they grow up. The grand prize winner will receive a $15,000 college scholarship and a $25,000 technology grant for their school. For more information, including guidelines for entering, click here.

Babaganewz.com is also sponsoring an art contest in conjunction with www.jewcology.com, collaboration from a wide range of Jewish environmental leaders and organizations worldwide. Study up on what Judaism has to say about preserving our environment, then create artwork—print or multimedia—based on a relevant Jewish text of your choice. Click here to read about the types of submissions and prizes available.

Get those creative juices flowing!
