SELF (Supporting Early Learning Families) is a local organization focused on advocacy and partnerships at the local and state level to provide quality childcare and early learning opportunities for all.
SELF board members approached several local child-inspired artists to paint wooden kid-sized tables and chairs to be auctioned off in order raise awareness and proceeds for families, and I was honored to be invited to participate.

I created a fun underwater "I Spy" game in my set, supporting visual and shape learning and counting skills, as well as providing a cheeky rhyme to go with it. Kids loved "sitting on the water," hunting out the items in the game, and the surface of the table was clear of distractions so they could create their own works of art.
