He loves the idea of pulling an idea from his brain and creating something cute, useful, educational and FUN for kids while putting a few pennies in his pocket. Although you must be 18 to open a sellers account, he decided to begin studying the process so he’s ready to go on his 18th birthday.

Impressed with his artwork, I taught him how to use the Layers App on an iPad to create a fun clip art set.

Then we took his images and made them into transparencies so they could be easily added to any documents.

Aren’t they cute?

You can grab a set here.

He couldn’t stop there.

He used his images as inspiration and created a fun little snowman activity pack. I am so impressed by this fourth-grade mind!

This pack includes:

• Create your own snowman scene
• Create your own snowman poem
• Snowman maze
• Color me snowman
• Build your own snowman
• Snowman word search
