Inspire your children

by Erika Jurney on January 7, 2009

If you’re searching for an alternative to traditional “children‘s room art” look no further.

About the artists: 3CD KidStuff is a collaborative effort of the folks at 3CD.
Tony, Mitch, Nikki, Dan, Omar, Mo, and Lauren have been “speaking to kids” through our graphic design work (mostly schoolbooks) since 1989. We thought it might be fun to brighten up kid’s walls with cute and fun prints (and we were itching to flex our creative muscles, too!). We hope you find something you and your kid can enjoy together.
We really appreciate your interest, ’cause it allows us to have fun and escape our day jobs (if only for a short time)…
You see, 3CD is a Chicago-based graphic design firm which has created a heck of a lot of educational work (that means schoolbooks). So who knows, you may have seen some of our handiwork in a classroom near you already!
We decided to offer KidStuff ’cause we like designing for kids and for the most part, we just never grew up!

Aren’t they great? $25 each, 3 for $65, or 4 for $85 from 3CD KidStuff.
