Submit Your Child's Drawing

Why parents choose this for their kindergartener

• Separate judging — LKG only competes with LKG, UKG with UKG. Your child won't be compared with older students.
• Certificate for every child — even if they don't win, they get a digital Certificate of Participation. A keepsake they'll treasure.
• Any medium works — crayon, sketch pen, finger paint, watercolour, collage. There's no restriction on what little hands can use.
• Parents submit — parents and guardians can submit on behalf of their child from any phone in 5 minutes.
• No entry fee — nothing to pay, ever.
• Safe for kids — no chat, no social features, no public profile. Parent-friendly.

Theme for July 2026: India Through My Eyes — One Nation. Many Stories.

Kindergarten children can interpret the theme in any way they like. Here are ideas parents and teachers love:

• My family — draw mum, dad, siblings, grandparents
• My favourite animal — cat, dog, elephant, butterfly
• Nature around me — trees, flowers, sun, rainbow
• My school — classroom, playground, teacher
• Abstract colours — let the child scribble freely with bright crayons

There is no "wrong" drawing at this age. Judges look for expression, colour use, and the child's unique voice — not technical perfection.

Frequently asked questions

Can a 3-year-old really participate?

Yes. There is no minimum age. LKG children (ages 3–4) have their own category and are judged by age-appropriate standards — expression and colour, not technique.

What if my child just scribbles?

That's perfectly fine. At the kindergarten level, free expression is valued. Scribbles with colour and energy score well. Every child gets a certificate regardless.

Is there a fee?

No. No entry fee. No hidden charges. No payment of any kind.

Will the school know if a child wins?

Yes. The winner certificate is emailed to the registered email, and a separate intimation is sent to the school if school details are filled in.

When do we get the certificate?

On result day — 5 August 2026 for this round. It's a downloadable digital certificate.
