International Scribble Day is about showing appreciation for and celebrating the act of scribbling. If like me, you like to scribble or doodle while taking notes, or you like turning scribbles into things like Mr Squiggle used to do on television, then this is a good day to celebrate.
It was founded in 2019 by Diane Alber, the author of children's book I'm Not Just a Scribble. the theme of this book is that art can come in any Forman anyone can be encouraged to be an artist. Besides inspiring creativity, the book also includes ideas about kindness and acceptance.
Do some scribbling and then a black marker to give it eyes and a mouth, maybe even hands and legs.
Bloch I think I'll do this as a lunchtime activity and then use the children's scribbles as part of a book display. What will I put out? These among others.
