Making a difference in the lives of children

EDU DESIGNS brings ART Presentations to Children of All Ages

Inspiring children with stories and ways to express emotions through art, Author and Illustrator
Ruth Elliott encourages students to work hard and never give up on their dreams.

The children are delighted to learn how to "SEE WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT" and draw in ways they never thought about before.

EDU DESIGNS presents their original animated videos, including THE NIGHT PRINCESS and LITTLE BLOSSOM, containing valuable life lessons about compassion and perseverance.

Students interact with discussion about what they see!

Christine Barry, the Librarian at Sun View Elementary had this to say about the authors visit:
"You related to the kids, made it interesting to them, involved them. You both seemed genuinely interested and invested in the kids. Character traits: I like the honesty of Richest Kid in the Poor House. The children in the story portrayed real qualities, and were guided and corrected in a real way. The same with The Night Princess: the "lessons" in these books are something valuable to all of us. You seem to have a real handle on how to "entertain" children through books, yet there is a deeper message that speaks to them. I would just hope that you keep up your creative process and keep offering up quality books with good messages for our children."
