Issue #1 is The Seaweed Issue

And you are the artist!

KELP Magazine can’t wait to meet you. We think kids’ artwork, writing and photos should be seen by everyone. This magazine is FOR kids BY kids!

We want to publish your work!

Submit your artwork by 30 May 2025 for your chance to be included.

Can you DRAW a beautiful underwater landscape or a
giant kelp forest?

Can you WRITE a story or poem about seaweed or maybe a creature that makes seaweed its home?

Can you take
photos of all the rainbow colours of kelp that wash up on the beach?

So what should you submit?

The first issue of KELP Magazine is ‘The Seaweed Issue’. We’d love to see any of these ideas from you around the theme of seaweed.
