Kids activity · Drawing and storytelling · Words that carry their weight
Imagine a friendly sea creature in a place you invent. This is a make-believe paper activity; you can use drawings, spoken words, or writing.
Write a label for an imaginary object so a visitor can understand its special job.
- Draw a sign that belongs in your imagined scene.
- Use a few large words or simple symbols.
- Add a place where a visitor can pause.
Use ordinary paper and a pencil or another familiar drawing tool. Stay where you are comfortable. You do not need to go outside, collect objects, send a message, or share personal details.
Try a question
What did your character notice that it had not noticed at the beginning?
Younger readers can ask a trusted grown-up to read the instructions with them. There is no score and no need for your picture to look like anyone else’s.
