So, I usually tutor some 8-12 year old kids on Friday, because I'm always done with my work. We do random things each friday, from singing along to "Re: Your Brains" on my guitar, to Origami.
Anyways, this Friday I promised to bring in some of my sketches and have them work on a drawing. I'm trying desperately to find something to have them draw, but failing miserably.
So..... What are some popular television shows for 8-12 year olds? I usually draw Anime, like Yu Yu Hakusho or FLCL or something, but I know these kids have no interest in anime like that. I DO know that they watch Cartoon Network, so anything from there is good.
Thanks! Now, off to bed! I'm already 3 hours behind on my sleep, and I'm gonna pay for it in the morning...

As an eleven year old... SPONGEBOB!
As for myself, I hate him - Can't stand him. But my friends like him.

Hmm. I don't fit into the category, but you could try just making something random up, and getting them to draw it. For instance, yesterday I drew a gnome wearing a cardigan.
Oh, and Spongebob is awesome Roland. I'm very disappointed in you. :p

There IS anime on Cartoon Network... just the english dubs of all the very popular series. But if you want something anime-style, there is a show called Avatar: The Last Airbender on Nickelodeon, and it took a lot of its animation tips from Japan.

I know somebody who watches this weird show called Hi Hi puffamiyumi... Who the heck knows what that show is!
However, for a cartooning class I did at my school, we ended up drawing characters from Teen Titans. Here's another hint for a certain cartoon.

Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi is a show about a girl band. The two band members are Ami & Yumi. They, with their manager, Kaz, go on all kinds of crazy adventures. It's a pretty good show.

I like Spongebob to. I really like to watch Dragon Ball Z.
