From the Archive: Sketch Swap
Have your kids do this instead of their homework.
What it is: you go to the site and make a sketch. (It doesn't have to be a good sketch. Mine was a profile of an elephant.) Then you click "submit sketch" and you get someone else's sketch in return. The two best parts are 1) you can't erase and 2) you get to watch the sketch you receive being drawn. So genius.
Someone compared it to fortune cookies, and for me it's true. I wonder who will receive the elephant?

um...my 5 year old just did this and submitted a picture of a rainbow..and in return saw a sketch of a man who had just hung himself with the witty caption of "hang in there...." a little disturbing.
Maybe it is not geared towards kids anymore!!
I think i got your elephant sketch. Did it have a super long trunk and was standing next to a car, or stove or something?
Ok that is really cool :)

I really love the idea behind Sketch Swap – think it's just terrific.
What a great idea! Your blog is wonderful inspiration for a single-mom-to-be. When pregnancy moodiness sets in, I especially love checking out your site. It always cheers me. Thanks!
I LOVE THIS! I must have doodles away at least an hour... ;)
My 5 year old loves this! The sketches we get back are way better than the ones we submit :)
