Kids Try to Describe Love to an Illustrator

It can be difficult to find words that properly articulate the rush of feelings and emotions that accompany being in love—for adults, at least. HiHo, a children's film producer, recently released a video where kids were asked to describe what love looks and feels like to a professional illustrator, who then would attempt to draw the concepts on paper. Some of the kids' responses were as hesitant or bashful as some adults responses might be, while several others proved to be profound in ways that only children could provide. To some children, love looks like: hugs, bubbles, and "a burger and fries." To others, love is: "scary … aren't you scared of love?" or a "lollipop with a scorpion inside," or like "Sprite … because it makes me tingle."
