Please do view this complementary issue of ChildArt in its entirety:

We invite you to explore the thrill of design-based learning challenges, creative ways to visualize, construct, and articulate what you see in your imagination, as well as consider passionate pathways to design the life you love. 

You will learn of powerful ways to empathize with the struggles of others as well as your own, redesign learning at school, and embrace reading as a way to gain phenomenal courage. As our overarching goal, we seek to inspire young people to become courageous and creative problem-solvers, to use their own hands to bring their ideas to life, to become passionate about what they learn, and to make good choices.
