About Doodle 4 Google

Since the beginning of time, ideas big and small, practical and playful, have started out as doodles. And we're ready for more. This year Google is asking K-12 students to create their doodles based on the theme, "If I Could Invent One Thing to Make the World a Better Place..." One talented young artist will work alongside the Google doodlers to animate his or her doodle to be featured on the Google homepage, receive a $30,000 college scholarship, and win a $50,000 Google for Education technology grant for his or her school.
