Doodle 4 Google

I'm a HUGE fan of Google Doodles, those fancy drawings on the Google homepage.  Thy have came a LONG way from the first Google page in 1998.  (All images below are from the Google Doodle page) 

These are some of my Favorite Doodles from 2012.

Maria Montessori's 142nd Birthday

Tato's Bore's 85th Birthday

Teacher's Day 2012

Each year Google gives students in grades K-12 a change to have their artwork featured on the Google homepage and loads of prizes: 

The National Winner will have his or her doodle featured on the U.S. Google.com homepage. He or she will be awarded a $30,000 college scholarship to used at the school of his or her choice, a trip to New York City for the final awards ceremony on May 22nd, 2013, a Google Chromebook computer, a Wacom digital design tablet, and a t-shirt printed with his or her doodle on it.
