I just discovered that Google has a contest every year to create a Google Doodle to go with a particular theme. For the 7th annual event, Google asked kids from grades K-12 to come up with an invention that would make the world a better place. They had 100,000 submissions!!!! The winner this year is 11 year old Audrey Zhang from New York.
You must see this, if you haven’t seen or read about it yet —

Incredible!
Isn’t it?!!
This is a great post. The children have some really great ideas. What a great program. Loved the video.
Posted to twitter, but couldn’t find your twitter name.:)
I don’t do much on Twitter. I can only get the Mom Person to do so much social media stuff. But you might can find me at @puppysub
Thanks Ms Tilton. Isn’t this the most incredible event?! I never knew of it before. Those kids just blew me away!
Oh Rhythm, thank you for sharing this! What wonderful and bright kids. Wow, the world is sure to be a better place with smart, creative people like this!
Isn’t that the truth! It’s always wonderful to learn about things like this!
this is SO cool! Definitely gonna tell some teachers I know…
It is indeed! Spread the word! I don’t know when the contest actually begins and ends, but it would be something worth looking into!
The doodles all looked so cool. Audrey is a lucky duck! She did great!
That Audrey is a pretty cool kid! As they all are!
It’s amazing! 😀
yes, indeed! Were you aware of this contest?
Rhythm, I wonder what your Doodle would look like! Thanks for sharing. One of our students actually entered last year. Such fun!
Whew! My brain doesn’t work quite like that! I might could come up with a machine to dispense endless supplies of flying tennis balls. Hmmmmm. That’s pretty cool that you had someone actually enter! I didn’t even know about it!
