Why try a 30-day drawing challenge?
A themed countdown makes the whole month feel festive, and drawing your own decorations beats buying them. Every prompt is a generic Halloween subject — no licensed or copyrighted characters — so kids can invent their own friendly monsters, costumes, and jack-o’-lantern faces. Tick off a spooky doodle each day up to the big night.
