BAFTA Kids launches selfie artwork competition

Our friends at BAFTA Kids are challenging children to draw their own selfie to show what makes them who they are.

Launched for Children’s Mental Health Week 2018, the new competition is all about ‘Being Ourselves’. While we may be similar to our family and friends in lots of ways, there are things that make us individual too.

BAFTA Kids and Place2Be are encouraging children to celebrate these differences by drawing their ‘selfie’ and writing a few lines about why it’s good to celebrate Being Ourselves.

Winners will have their selfies made into a short animated film by the BAFTA-winning animation studio Karrot Entertainment, the creators of Sarah & Duck!
