Fall is here! A season change means KidsPost needs your help with new weather art. It can be warm or cold, rainy or sunny, windy or breezy during fall. The season is defined by the oranges, yellows and reds of fall leaves.

Pick up your art tools, and think about what fall looks like and get to drawing! If your artwork matches the weather forecast on an upcoming day, we may publish it in print KidsPost and feature it online.

Here are the rules:

● Kids must be ages 5 to 13.

● Bright colors work best.

● You can use paints, markers or whatever art supplies you have.

● Try to avoid leaving a lot of white space on the page.

A parent, guardian or teacher must give permission for your drawing to be used. Have that person fill out our online form, which you can find at wapo.st/kidspostweatherart. Look for your art Monday through Thursday in the print KidsPost and in the online photo gallery at kidspost.com.
