Here’s How it Works

If you haven’t already, please register. We need your details so that we can return drawings and send you a certificate to give to your child. We also email confirmations and send monthly Bowdleflode News updates (optional).
You can choose to enter online or by post, but either way, you will need to download the Creative Creatures form (see link below).
Children then draw or paint a Creative Creature made up of parts of all sorts of animals, ideally of endangered species, and name it and describe it on the form.
For the drawing, please use A3 paper and keep it clean with no added text or backgrounds. Strong colours are best.
The project can be done in one session or over a period of time.
Once completed, you can either scan and email the form and your child’s picture to hello@bowdleflodes.com, OR if you prefer to post the entry, drawings with the description sheet and the parental permission form should be stapled together and posted to:

Bowdleflode HQ at Graingers, Southbrook Road, West Ashling, Chichester PO18 8DN, UK.

If you submit by post, your artwork will be returned as soon as we have put it on the website.
You can find your creature under the heading Creative Creatures. Each creature has its own free webpage.
T shirts, mugs, cushions and clocks with the child’s animal can be ordered from the child’s Creative Creature page or from the Bowdleshop. They make lovely presents.
