Thanks to their flexible format and high level of customization, custom temporary tattoos are an ideal tool to support these initiatives and enrich school life.

Drawing Contests: Turning Students’ Artwork into Real Tattoos

Organizing a drawing contest is an activity that naturally motivates students. With PiCO Tatoo, the winning illustration can be transformed into a real temporary tattoo, creating a unique souvenir while celebrating the talent of the selected student.

It’s a simple and positive way to highlight children’s creativity while creating a tangible item they will be proud to share.

This concept also works very well as a fundraising activity, since families enjoy supporting a collective school project, especially when it showcases artwork created by a student.

They can be distributed during:

Beyond being fun, they also help identify groups during outings or gatherings while showcasing the school’s visual identity.

Some schools even include a contact phone number on the tattoo in case a child gets separated during an outdoor activity.

Tattoos for Themed School Days

Career days, colour days, seasonal celebrations, and cultural events — schools organize many special activities throughout the year.

Custom tattoos add a festive element to these moments through designs created specifically for the occasion. Easy to distribute in classrooms, they become a small gesture that brings students together and energizes the event.

Educational Projects

PiCO Tatoo can transform school projects into real visual creations.

Whether students design a mascot, symbol, or character representing their school community, these illustrations can be adapted into temporary tattoos or stickers. It’s a great way to promote values such as respect, kindness, inclusion, and teamwork while leaving a lasting reminder of the project.

School Awareness Campaigns

Schools regularly run awareness campaigns on topics such as road safety, environmental protection, nutrition, anti-bullying, and positive school culture.

Custom tattoos are a simple and effective visual tool to communicate these messages. They make campaigns more memorable by creating a small but meaningful point of engagement for students, teachers, and families.
