| Kids-Did-It! Properties™ is a small California art-licensing and design studio that represents the Kids-Did-It! Designs® kids' art catalog of nearly 500 unique, charming and colorful illustrations available for licensed reproduction made by young art students, ages 3 to 14 - most created under the guidance of respected San Diego, CA artist, teacher, author and art director, Michelle Abrams.
Michelle encourages her students to take their finished artwork off the refrigerator “...enlarge it, frame it, and display it proudly around the house! Treat it as fine art. That’s what we do!”
Michelle’s husband, Glenn, was inspired to collect the student’s artwork and now, in addition to the thrill and satisfaction of being published artists, more than 70 young students have earned royalties for the reproduction of their work. Some artists have even framed their first royalty check, while others use their proceeds as extra allowance, for college savings, or to support causes important to them.

In addition to the inspiring character of our fresh and colorful artwork, to quickly communicate the Kids-Did-It! concept to consumers on your product, packaging and promotional materials we recommend including the Kids-Did-It! Designs® logo along with our 'Learn and Earn' story.
In addition to learning the basics of art and design, each young artist represented in the Kids-Did-It! Designs® collection also earns a royalty for the licensed reproduction of their artwork.
