The entries to Childminding Ireland’s 8th Annual Art Competition created a wonderful sense of excitement and awe, as always! The creativity and imagination of Ireland’s children never cease to amaze the team at Childminding Ireland.
This year’s competition featured vibrant rainbows, playful animals, gorgeous flowers, and joyful scenes of children playing outdoors. Each piece captured the beauty of childhood and the world around us in such inspiring ways. Watch our video to see the winning entries!
