Welcome to the Apps for Kids Highlight – November Edition
November is rarely the most appreciated month of the year: days are getting drastically shorter, cold is coming. However this is a month where we celebrate important things like Thanksgiving in the United-States or elephants during the Elephant Round-up festival in Thailand. That’s why we, at SOLIDWORKS Apps for Kids, decided to celebrate our favorite pachyderms this month with elephant-inspired activities for young children.
Awesome projects!
Check out these cool projects that we selected this month. Congratulations to the inspired designers! Check out all the shared projects on the Apps for Kids Website

Here are five simple activities that we propose for young children.

Inspiration and Challenges
November is the month of the elephants in Surin, Thailand. Indeed they are celebrated through the Elephant Round Up Festival! Have your students/kids create their own elephant to pay tribute to those impressive animals!
Here is a video showcasing how to create a nice elephant.
And another one showing you how to style it.
Do you want to see your kids’ designs on SOLIDWORKS Education Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram? Share their A4K creation on social media, mentioning #elephant AND #swa4k, and we might feature them on our channels!
