Doodle 4 GoogleYour little sister, brother, favorite kid in the neighborhood or child could be the next Google star – that is, if he or she is a K-12 student living in the United States who has doodling skills that are beyond belief or are good enough to beat out the expected 100,000-plus entries from around the country.

Google announced this year’s theme for the fifth annual Doodle 4 Google contest for kids is: “If I could travel in time, I’d visit….” Doodles can reflect visiting the past, present or future. So, hop in your time machine whether it be an old-time pirate ship or a decked-out space travel machine.

Google also announced a few changes this year after last year‘s record-breaking number of entries (107,000) — making this year’s competition bigger than ever.

There will be a winner from every state — five state finalists will be chosen and one state champ will be named. From these 50 State Winners, five National Finalists will be chosen leading up to the lucky National Winner whose Doodle 4 Google will appear not only on the homepage, but on a special edition of Crayola 64-crayon boxes.

Entries can be submitted from Jan. 18 to Mar. 23. Online voting will determine finalist and the winning doodle will be displayed on Google’s homepage on May 18.

Brace for national fame by grabbing all the pencils, crayons, felt tips, paint or computer drawing/design software you have. Entries will not be accepted if made with extraneous materials. Even if the art piece doesn’t win, some pretty cool people will be fixing their eyes on the doodles.

This year’s judges include Google employees, a panel of guest judges including platinum singer Katy Perry, Phineas and Ferb creator and executive producer Jeff “Swampy” Marsh and recording artist Jordin Sparks, plus experienced illustrators and artists.

If we could still make the cut for being a really tall (not old) 12th grader, we would go see the athletes of Olympia in Ancient Greece, see the splendor of the Holy Roman Empire during the Medieval Times or visit Florence, Italy during The Renaissance. But, that’s just us. Tell us in comments if you are interesting in urging a child you know to enter Doodle 4 Google.
