September 6: Critter Collectors
We’re going to create and draw our very own collectible cartoon critters based on your suggestions. 14 legs? Sure! 7 tails? Why not! 3 glowing-the-dark hypnotizing laser eyes?! OK, that seems like a bit much, but you’re the boss. Then, you decide who would win in a cartoon critter clash.
September 27: Secret Spies, Goofy Gadgets
Meet Agent 327 and help him create secret spy gadgets for his next mission. Laser watches! Flying cars! Secret code glasses! Anti-gravity socks! And anything else you can come up with.
October 18: Cartoon Monsters
Students will draw tons of crazy, unbelievable monsters. Weird blobby monsters! Scary pointy monsters! Funny hat-wearing monsters! And at the end, kids get to see their monsters come alive on the big screen and sneak up on poor unsuspecting Fuzzy Bunny.
November 15: Animal Helpers
Draw and learn about Illinois animals that need a little help. We’re talking piping plovers, cave amphipods and the orangefoot pimpleback to name just a few! We’ll find out what’s going on and how we can help. And, we might throw in a spa day or two for good measure.
