Let’s Make Something Together: The Kids Create! Contest

By Jamie Roberts, Senior Director of Creative and Content

When kids are in their element—finger painting, drawing, building with blocks—they feel like anything is possible. At KinderCare, that feeling of confidence is at the heart of everything we do, and it’s why we’ve put kids’ creativity at the core of our brand. The Kids Create! Contest is just one way we’re inviting you and your kids to explore the infinite possibilities of what we can make together.

Building Blocks

Look closely at our logo and you’ll notice that the KinderCare bell tower is made out of a few simple shapes. We call them Building Blocks, and you can use them to create anything: a skyscraper, a picnic scene, a magic castle, or whatever else you can imagine.

The Building Blocks give kids the freedom to express their creativity in millions of different ways, building their brains along the way!

Here are some examples of how our Building Blocks have come to life in our centers so far:

The Kids Create! Contest, May 2019
