Design a menu for an imaginary restaurant. Get creative–the restaurant doesn’t even have to be for people!
Draw your favorite meal but with different colors.
Make a picture book based on a memory from when you were younger. You can be as creative as you’d like with this. Maybe your memory is losing your first tooth or learning to ride a bike, but you could add in dragons or a ghost!
Draw your best friend.
Make up a character and design their bedroom. You can describe the bedroom in writing, draw it, or both!
I was tired of convincing Lisa to smile. Every time we sat down with her, she simply crossed her arms and stared at me through a set of deep, solemn eyes, her mouth refusing to curl into a smile.

the sturdiest tree

tipped with an army of

were the ones with the sanded wooden sides—
the ones that bobbed up and down
and were filled with goods.
The beast lurked just beside that snow capped mountain
the only home it ever knew.
