CYCLOPS

Hey there, art explorers! 👋 Get your drawing tools ready for The Creature Feature - our limited series of podsnacks bringing you colossal characters and mythical monsters between main episodes! 🎨 We're digging up amazing creatures from old stories. 📖 We'll learn what makes them so huge and special ✨, and maybe what tasty humans they devour 🍎. Plus, we'll learn new words! 🤓 Then, you draw them and share your pictures on our Monstrous Masterpieces page! 🖼️

Imagine a giant figure, taller than a house, with a single, enormous eye in the middle of its forehead! They often have thick, hairy bodies and carry massive clubs made from tree trunks. You might find them in rocky landscapes, caves, or near volcanoes. They're incredibly strong and have a booming voice!

Can you guess what it is? ... A Cyclops! 👹

These one-eyed giants from Greek myths are often shown as wild and uncivilized. They live solitary lives, herding sheep and making cheese in their caves. They are known for their immense strength but can be tricked by clever heroes.

Now it's your turn to draw! 👩‍🎨 Show us your Cyclops with its one big eye and giant club! Will it be scary or funny? Will it be in its rocky cave, or out on a rampage? Use lots of detail and vibrant colors! Share your art at bykidsforkids.co and select “contact” 📧.

The Gloopmoss 🧪🐸 The Mystery of the Droopy Ducks!

Something's wrong in Snaggleton! The ducks in Sir Chucklenugget's moat look sad and their feathers are falling out! 😢 Stanky wants to help, and with the help of Shadowsqueak, they discover the moat was cleaned, and all the slimy, green Gloopmoss is gone! 😱

But guess what? That yucky Gloopmoss is super important! It's food for the Blobble-Snouts, who make slime for the Flutter-Nibblers, who keep the ducks' feathers healthy! 😲 It's all connected! Can Stanky and Shadowsqueak convince Sir Chucklenugget that the Gloopmoss needs to come back to help the ducks? And will Granny Gigglesnort's potion do the trick? 🧪

Hey there, art heroes! 👋 Get your drawing tools ready for another Creature Feature! 🎨 We're digging up amazing creatures from old stories. 📖 We'll learn where they came from, what makes them special ✨, and what they might be like. We'll also learn cool words! 🤓 Then, you draw them and show off your pictures on our Monstrous Masterpieces page! 🖼️

Imagine a creature shaped like a person, but not made of flesh and blood! It might be formed from clay, stone, or even wood. It moves slowly and powerfully, following the instructions it's given. It doesn't talk or have feelings like we do, but it can be very strong and helpful... or dangerous!

Can you guess what it is? ... A Golem!

A golem is a creature from Jewish legends. It's an artificial being, meaning it's made by someone, not born. (If something is artificial, it's made by humans, not natural.) Golems are often created to do work or protect people. They're usually controlled by magic words or an object placed inside them.

Alright, amazing artists, it's your turn to draw! 👩‍🎨 Show us your golem – is it made of clay, stone, or something else? What is it doing? Is it helping someone or is it scary? Share your artwork at bykidsforkids.co and select “contact” 📧. Have fun creating!
