Google on Wednesday celebrated Children's Day 2018 with a unique doodle made by Pingla Rahul of Mumbai. She is the winner of the 2018 Doodle 4 Google competition in India.

The theme for this year was "What inspires me?" Rahul, who is inspired by space exploration, wrote that there is still so much more to know about the universe — from planets to stars to galaxies and beyond.

She further said that to convey her idea, she drew herself trying to see "the expanse of the space through a telescope", according to the Google Doodle archive.

The judges included Arun Iyer, famous artist and YouTube Kids Creator, Rob (Harun Robert), India's leading YouTube Creator Sejal Kumar and the Google Doodles team lead, Ryan Germick helped decide the winner along with 300,000 votes from the public.

In India, Children's Day is celebrated on 14 November on the birth anniversary of Jawaharlal Nehru. He was fondly called 'Chacha Nehru' and was known for his love for children.
