Visual creativity challenge with 30 empty circles

Challenge #1

Thirty empty circles, three minutes to turn as many as possible into real objects. Then count how many you filled and consider how different they were from each other. Unsatisfied? Do more!

You can draw the circles yourself or click the image to print this one.

Challenge #2

Pick two items or concepts: Knitting, coffee, Greece, music, autumn, bookshelf - you get the idea. Find ten links between them in five minutes. Judge none of them.
