It took a little longer than expected, but our family art with doodle a day October is complete. Yay!! Back at the beginning of October we decided to join in with illustrator Rhianna Wurman’s doodle a day challenge. Except, we decided, as a family, to draw all our doodles onto an A3 canvas. Not only was it a great way to keep everyone motivated, but we were able to watch as the white canvas started to fill, and were rewarded with a piece of October artwork at the end of the challenge.
Here are the prompts set by Rhianna! It was a lot of fun seeing how each of the Buttons interpreted the doodles to draw.

It looks so Christmassy!! #winning
Oh, and I almost forgot, Little Button had a fab idea that this could be used as a family Christmas countdown or Advent Calendar. We’ve already got our Advents, so the doodle a day December will be our countdown to Christmas. If you do join in, especially on Instagram, make sure you tag your posts with #doodleadaydec – and that way, Rhianna will also be able to see all your lovely doodles.
How it all started:
WILD is now out in Spanish!
WILD – Our debut children’s picture book
Dad blogger Ross Good from The Stented Papa is the official storyteller for WILD!
Happy book birthday WILD!

That’s really gorgeous! And how lovely a reminder of that seasonal time. THe xmas one will be a fab decoration at the end too. Great idea. #Dreamteam
Never heard of this, but it sounds like so much fun, and you end up with a piece of art afterward
We have finished our curriculum for the year so now we are doing a doodle a day to keep the kids busy. I am just making up prompts every day but they are loving it,
I had no idea about doodle a day, but the outcome looks so cute. I love the little doodles and that must have been such a nice little thing to do each day x
This is such a neat way to create something to look back on! What a great way to practice drawing too.
I am officially inspired and screenshotted the December doodles to do with my daughter. Thanks for sharing.
This is so amazing and creative! This will definitely create lots of memories to look back on along the road ahead.
