Crazy hair day is a great just-for-fun celebration that schools and other institutions that work with kids love to throw to let kids (and their parents) express their wild side a bit. On Crazy Hair Day, kits are encouraged to come in with the wackiest and most creative hair design that they can possibly imagine – hair gel, hair color and even toys are all fair game.

The classic Battleship just got way geekier! Karyn Tripp, a homeschooling mom-of-four, turned it into a fun way to teach her kids chemistry. Players have to circle rows of two, three, four, and five elements to mark their ships. Then, they play by calling out coordinates. The aim is to find the elements first.

Tattoo artist Fred Giovannitti of Tatlantis is the proud papa of three creative kids. Like most children, Giovannitti's daughter and two sons like drawing pictures for their dad. Instead of simply thanking them or putting the pictures up on the fridge, this gifted artist has been enhancing his children's sketches by coloring them in while he's traveling out of state for work. It's his way of collaborating with his kids and keeping a piece of them with him, wherever he may be.

A wonderful toy company called Budsies will take any child's doodles and turn it into a real-life toy for him/her. Even if the kids find they're having trouble creating their own character, the company's website provides a variety of templates (designed by illustrator Echean Edmundson) to choose from and build upon, whether that means adding extra legs, perhaps another eyeball, some sort of prop, or simply coloring the character in to their heart's content.

It was fine enough when the new human was first born, but as time goes by, it just gets more obnoxious. These animals have had enough of their little antics, and they're not afraid to show it.

Taking your child shopping can be a rough experience. They can be loud, rude, tired or grumpy. It’s a gamble every time you strap your toddler into a basket and walk into a Target. But the next time you’re with your child and they’re throwing a tantrum (or you see a kid about to melt down), have some compassion.

The folks at Torafu Architects realized that art appreciation is just too boring for today’s youth, so they decided to make it more interesting. Did I say interesting because I meant terrifying. They created a haunted art gallery exhibit for the Museum of Contemporary Art in Tokyo. The exhibit features replicas of fine art that are not quite right. Like the eyes in some paintings move and Mona Lisa’s got hands coming out of her face. Scary stuff. Although slightly less scary when you enter a secret passageway that lets you manipulate the artwork yourself from behind.
