Concept Description (Required):

In this challenge, we want to create ideas with young people, not for them.

Be sure to report back throughout the Ideas phase with updates, too!

What skills, input or guidance would you like to receive from the OpenIDEO community to help you build out or refine your idea further? Hint: this could be graphic design support, prototyping advice, financial/cost guidance – whatever you think you need to make your idea stronger and better poised for impact. And if you’ve got skills that might further someone else’s idea – reach out to them via the comments section.

What if . . .

We could run around and do an activity that will be fun for all and allow us to explore the world?

We could get everyone outside to build and make things from things we see in the world into our own creations?

We built more big projects for kids?

We made Murals, Art, Kids, Economy?

We could be more active and stop sitting around or watching TV?

We could get outside and do some activities or exercise instead of just sitting around?

We could open our minds and make and build things?

We could look around or look at nature and be light?

We could all get a block of clay and create an imaginary character?

We could go outside, get our hands dirty and make something of our own?

We could get kids interested in or try to get involved in bigger better things, like architecture, or something like that?

We could bring everyone out side and play around and look at all the trees and flowers and also cool buildings instead of just sitting around doing nothing lets open our minds and do something active.

We could make something that impacts the world, that makes a difference just by crafting something?
