Google Invites children to 'Doodle' on its India home page. Announces the launch of the 3rd Competition 2011 in India.

To celebrate scientific and artistic achievements, festivals and historic events, Google keeps redesigning its logo.

Google is inviting children from across the country to participate in this exciting 'doodling' competition and get a chance to feature their 'doodle' on 14th November 2011 on www.google.co.in. The competition is open for all children from the age group of 5 to 16 years. This year, the chosen theme is 'India's gift to the world'.

The participants will be clubbed in three different categories- 1st to 3rd Standard, 4th to 6th Standard and 7th to 10th Standard. Top Indian art schools will select the top 200 entries from each category which will be reviewed by a panel of judges. The judges will then shortlist 15 doodles from each category, bringing it down to a total of 45 final Doodles.

All the final entries will be exhibited for public voting and based on the number of votes, one winner from each category will be selected. Each of the winners will receive a technology starter kit which consists of a laptop and an Internet connection. Dennis Hwang, the original Google Doodler, will then choose the final winning Doodle from the total 45 finalists.
