9 Visions of the Future described by Kids. Encouraging creativity in the younguns.

Ask the average four-year-old a question, and you'll probably get a wild, winding explanation in return. Case in point: Last month, little visitors to the V&A Museum of
Childhood were invited to share their visions of what the future holds. The predictably weird and wonderful results—Invisible owners of the world! Butterfly people! Three-eyed, Cheerio-loving aliens!—were turned over to artists at the Central Illustration Agency, who each teamed up with a tiny counterpart to turn those predictions into full-color 2D realities.
“Mind of a Child—Eye of an Artist” is a freaking brilliant campaign to promote a project called Big Draw Tomorrow:aimed at encouraging creativity in the younguns of today. It's enough to make even the most level-headed grown-up give a quick thought or two to the coolest possible future imaginable, and the perfect way to get mental engines geared up to make the next years, decades, and centuries on earth even better than the last. The whole thing is almost a bit like a modern artsy take on Giz's own Paleofuture—if the forecasters of yesteryear were, in fact, under-age.
