Make a tiny show.

A funny creature? A pretend helpful machine? An idea that is all yours?

Make a picture. Try what comes next. Keep it, change a bit, or finish.

Start with one wanted thing

1 · Choose your thing

A creature, a made-up place or something completely different. One part is enough.

2 · Make it your way

Draw, tell an agreeing helper what to make, or choose a screen shape. Words are optional.

3 · Give it a try

Show one actual picture. Want another? Choose what comes next. Keep it private, change it or finish.

Use your usual communication, an exact description, help, a break or a later turn.

Paper and grown-up setup

A little home turn, without a shopping list

Selected first/later checks are educator choices in the separate teacher desk. Ordinary examples and blank boards are not answers to those checks.

Educator checks / teacher desk

For educators: the desk includes staff criteria and other stages. Keep it out of learner handouts; preserve the child’s first contribution before targeted teaching or criteria.

Room for your own idea
