Today is national Take Your Kids To Work Day. Here at the Wired offices, we’ve got about a dozen kids, from 3 to 10, and the project is to make a magazine cover. First, they took the photos (below).

Later we’ll print them all out on shiny photo paper and they can take them home after lunch.
What’s your office doing today?

[update: here’s one of the final covers:]
