New range of Doodle Dents - out now!
June 9, 2021
The most common question we get is, ‘Can we have more Doodle Dents designs please’? Well, we are delighted to announce that thanks to the popularity of the Original Doodle Dents, now you can!
Not one but TWO new Doodle Dents products!
We have just released Uncle Paul’s book of Doodle Dents
and Granny & Grandpa’s handy pocket edition.
Uncle Paul’s book of Doodle Dents is an A5 sized booklet, meaning your children can add to their portfolio of existing Doodle Dents, whilst Granny and Grandpa’s book comes in the new, smaller, handy pocket sized book, which can be easily taken absolutely anywhere and everywhere.
Uncle Paul's book of Doodle Dents is themed around 'favourite things' (including exotic animals, spaceships, wizards and street dancers), whilst the pocket book is themed around 'cool types of transport' (from planes, trains and automobiles - plus horseback too), which is fitting as the pocket book is perfect for whichever mode of transport you embark when heading out!
Why are these TWO new Doodle Dents editions so special?
Family is at the heart of Doodle Dents. It was invented by a daughter and brought to life by a father. It provides benefits to both the child and the adult. If you are not familiar with our backstory, you can read it
here.
These two Doodle Dents books are dedicated to my brother (an awesome Uncle Paul) and my Mum & Dad (amazing Granny and Grandpa). You can read how they brought these books to life
here, although between you and me, I think they simply wanted some more Doodle Dents to keep the kids entertained now, as lock-down eases, that they start to look after the kids more again :-)
So now we have added loads more designs to your Doodle Dents portfolio, it should mean even more hours of uninterrupted creative, calming fun AND loads more smiles AND loads more proud children for turning a blank piece of paper into a wonderful picture!
Christmas is coming!! Doodle Dents is a great Christmas gift - read more...
Doodle Dents - remember us - a fabulous unique, creative & mindful way of doing art. Ideal presents for children.
I can't quite believe it has been TWO years since we launched Doodle Dents. What were you doing two years ago today and could you ever have imagined what was in store, for us all? I certainly didn't. I had just launched Doodle Dents and on this exact day two years ago became a "MAMIL" (middle-aged man in lycra), as I embarked on a two wheeled fundraising trip from Lands End to John O'Groats. Little did I know that I would be cycling through cities, towns and even remote hamlets where people would be enjoying Doodle Dents!
Ingredients: • 1 x Inventor of Doodle Dents (Violet) • 2 x Chief Doodlers (Bertie & Immy) • 1 x Uncle (Paul) • 1 x Topic – ‘My favourite things’ • Some paper & pens
THANK YOU, thank you, THANK YOU to everyone who ordered a Doodle Dents Special Christmas Bundle. We promised to give a Doodle Dents booklet to the children of KIDS ON TRACK charity for every Christmas Bundle bought and here we are! On the left is Digby (a total legend), from KIDS ON TRACK, who was in charge of distributing the Doodle Dents booklets, because it was not possible to do so in person due to the on-going Covid challenges. It was an absolute pleasure to meet Digby, deliver the extra Doodle Dents booklets and hear how he and the team at Kids On Track were working hard putting all the Doodle Dents booklets into special packs with other goodies to be delivered to all the children this week before Christmas. KIDS ON TRACK said: " We are so incredibly grateful to the amazing team at Doodle Dents for their wonderful contribution to the KOT children. A very very popular Christmas present!! Once again so many thank yous and a Happy Christmas to you all 🎄👍🏻" W e believe that Doodle Dents should be enjoyed by every child, in every household, and we have been genuinely humbled by everyone's generosity, we could not have delivered this particular initiative without you. So once again, a huge thank you. Merry Christmas and happy New Year.
Celebrating 1 year and meet the team behind Doodle Dents. A year ago today, I nervously unveiled a pull up banner and set up our first ‘market stall’ at the Farleigh School Macmillan fair in front of a few hundred people. This was it, time to showcase our completely unique concept to the real and unforgiving consumer! Agghh!
What makes Doodle Dents so special? For you, it might be: - the look of pride on your child's face when they have completed their Doodle Dents? - the quality time you spend together whilst doing Doodle Dents? - the extra 40 minutes peace and quiet when your child is concentrating on doing their Doodle Dents? - or maybe, your own mindful experience doing a Doodle Dents yourself ??? Of course, all of those are excellent reasons, but for us it is the genuine passion and process behind the scenes that makes Doodle Dents so special. Let me explain. The genuine passion comes from discovering something that hadn't been done before and seeing how much joy it can bring to so many lives. The idea was inspired by my daughter, Violet, and it's important to me that our children are still involved with Doodle Dents every step of the way. I recently had the pleasure of showing them around the factory when the recent production run was in full swing. A proud moment for us all - to see what we have created, as well as a n education for them. They had so many questions, were super excited and somewhat amazed to see how it all came together; their inspired concepts and designs being manufactured and produced en masse. We saw big machines, small plates, varying paper stocks, production, cutting, trimming & collation techniques, the important finishing touches and millions of 'dents' - each stage equally as important to ensure each and every Doodle Dents product is just right. A big thank you to Mark, who hosted us, keeping us warm, watered and fed during a cold winter morning ( and sorry the kids ate all the biscuits)!
Well done Doodle Dents users! The feedback and creativity that fellow 'Doodle Denters' over the last few months has been phenomenal. So much so that we needed to share these wonderful other ways to enjoy Doodle Dents. The original idea of Doodle Dents was to create a fabulous picture by filling in the dents, but these wonderful pictures show Doodle Dents taking on a whole new level of creativity. A huge thank you to those who shared these - particularly our babysitter who deliberately left her Doodle Dents creation (pictured top left) on the coffee table for us to see!
Doodle Dents goes to School. "The silence and concentration is deafening 😊 – they are LOVING Doodle Dents!” Mrs Litchfield, Copthorne Prep School.
From London to Devon, Doodle Dents enjoyed touring the South of England whilst spreading the joy of this new mindful format of art - Doodle Dents, whilst raising hundreds of pounds for various charities. It’s been a joy to see the children (and some adults!) enjoying Doodle Dents and a pleasure contributing to school fundraisers and community fairs this Christmas. A big thank you to all those who hosted.
