These projects made by kids show the incredible freedom with which kids create. Since kids tend to be way more imaginative than their grown-up counterparts, several projects initiated by adults in architecture, art, furniture and children’s toy designs now seem to be opening their doors for collaborations with kids.
One of the most well-known examples of this is the Doodle 4 Google contest that’s now held annually, inviting kids to submit drawings of Google’s logo that will be animated and featured on the search engine’s front page for millions of people to see.
These projects truly show that not all kid’s ideas are silly and they can truly hold merit for practical, real world applications.
