 Conflict and peace

Cartoon conflict

IMAGE: Cartoon face

Cartoon strips often feature people behaving violently. Computer games are often about fighting and defending yourself. These games and cartoons can portray the image that fighting is fun and exciting, when in reality it is destructive and dangerous.

Collect some examples of cartoons and games to look at. Draw an alternative cartoon strip or computer game cover. In your picture, make the characters be doing something positive together. For example your superheroes could be building something amazing, stopping a natural disaster, preventing a fight from happening, providing food and water for people, or curing people from disease. If you are feeling creative you could draw a whole comic strip featuring an alternative story, that doesn't glorify violence.
