Background:
The Kids’ Creative Stuff’n Such (KCS’nS) page is a branded Osprey Media LP community newspaper syndicated feature. 
 
Evolution:
Published since 2001, the KCS’nS page is created weekly by Ron Lindsay and is an extension of his very successful and popular elementary school “Cartoon and Draw Your Socks Off” classroom creative workshops.  The experience gained from conducting more than 500 classroom creative workshops helping kids learn how to develop their imaginations, through his proven, popular and “do-able” cartooning and drawing exercises and drawing tips that are part of every KCS’nS page, is one of the main reasons for its popularity with kids, teachers, parents, grandparents, and especially newspapers that publish the KCS’nS page.
 
KCS’nS Page Satisfies an Important Need in Your Community:
 
The KCS’nS page addresses a very important “need” in your community – the need to help local kids develop creatively.  Any parent or teacher of children in elementary schools will tell you that visual arts teachers, who once helped children develop their imaginations, express themselves creatively and be recognized for their creative efforts, no longer exist in schools today.  Parents and teachers of elementary school children recognize, almost immediately, the value of the KCS’nS page in filling that void.
