My/Our First Instagram Challenge!

I still have not worked up the nerve to post my game idea yet but I did work up a challenge to host! The idea sparked from my son showing interest in what I was drawing each day for my other challenges for #inktober. He was even trying to copy some of my drawings. Thus, the first mother-son challenge was born!

At first I was just going to have it with my son and I, but I decided to put it out there to see if anyone would be interest. Our theme is Gross Groceries inspired by his collection of Grossery Gang toys. He was pretty bummed at first because he wanted to do Halloween but Halloween is pretty much over. After running through a few ideas, Gross Groceries was perfect! Still a bit Halloween-ish but not. We came up with the list together and I had him write out it out. To my surprise, #sillydoodlechallenge was not being used so it was perfect should I want to host more later. This month, my absolute favorite challenge is the #pinktobertime. They had such silly prompts geared towards a comic style which was right up my alley.

We have already received some interest in participation in our challenge and even some having their kids participate as well. This is so exciting! I didn't even occur to me that other kids would want to participate so this is even more fantastic! My son is so excited, especially now with others participating. This is so freaking cool!

The Challenge: Draw each grocery item as gross as you can, give it a face, some personality, and a disgusting name throughout the month of November! #sillydoodlechallenge
