I hope you can share the 'copyright for kids' learning as this is a very
interesting area. The creative industries are very keen that children
understand that the things they make and consume are a form of property and
those more inclined to CC probably agree that we should all be more
knowledgeable.

In general, the most important thing is safety. Making sure the children can
not be traced back to where they live, or go to school, if their pictures are
used for instance is critical.

I suspect also that children cannot assign conditions to their copyright
meaningfully without adult or most probably parental advice. Interestingly,
if the content that the children remixed was already on a share-alike
agreement, then this would stand. Perhaps the answer is to educate the
children and parents into why you are doing this and explain that you will be
using a share-alike agreement?

Ahoy,

We (Remix Reading) are hoping to get some kids into a RR/Fading Ways event in
early July. If we can pull it off, we'll have a youth group going a little
bit crazy with CC'ed work, remixing it in weird and wonderful ways.

Are there any copyright implications we need to think of? For example, if an
eight year old kid does a remix, can he/she license that under a CC license?
I'm a little nervous about getting them to do this, even if it's legal.

Any advice would be appreciated...

Kind regards,
Tom

The reaction is already visible.
Some of these orgs will be correct, I don't recall seeing a variant of
the CC licence that requires providing a file copy for information to
the previous author of a work that is modified (I may just have missed
it of course).
If they do identify a clear lack, then a new variant should arise as a
result.
