My best friend I lost track of a long time ago actually came up with this. Pretty sure I taught him a thing or two so thanks Simon but until Sniffle and Ollie come back on air I'm keeping it in my arsenal. Maybe our paths will again cross some day.
This is super easy to draw and if anyone were to show interest I'd probably updated this with a live drawing. It loses some of the effect when a youngster isn't crying next to me as I draw this in a restaurant because I just stole their crayons to vandalize all the paper menus within reach.
On a serious note they don't cry for long once they realize your showing them how to ignore the boring chit chat that adds up to adults in tears instead of them.
One brilliant little girl I once knew even decided she wanted to become an artist herself after realizing the magic that we each hold back each day.
This drawing will also silence crying adults. I drew this in jail for just that reason.
