Four kids and years of teaching art mean I’ve sampled a lot of art supplies. These supplies are my favorites toddler art supplies for providing quality creative exploration opportunities for your littles artist! Whether you can’t tolerate any mess or you’re a free spirited mama that doesn’t mind a little clean up you’ll find something for you!
The terms shape and form might seem like they are interchangeable in the world of art. Not so. In fact, I designed this free digital course to help your kiddos get first hand experience with identifying shape and form in art. They’ll also get a hands on tutorial on how to turn a shape into a form through a simple pencil drawing tutorial.
Creating something beautiful that gets used is just the best in my book. These painted crowns will do just that. Kids can paint a colorful paper crown and then let it inspire a day of imaginative play.
