I am jumping for joy that people are giving my new book, Art Play!, for Hannukah and Christmas this year (and birthdays too!). Art Play! is inspiring people around the world to give the gift of art and creativity this Holiday Season. With 22 process art activities that honor the creativity of young children it is the perfect gift for the kids in your life (and the teachers and caregivers, too!). I’m excited to share my idea for an Art Kit Gift for Kids full of materials that will provide you months of fun!

What You Need for the Art Kit Gift for Kids- pick your favorites from the list!
copy of Art Play! – learn more about my book Art Play! HERE
liquid watercolors- these are the ones I use
playdough jar- make yourself or purchase from my shop
paint sticks- we love the ones from OOLY
small cardboard boxes
watercolor paper – like this
canvas panels – I like this 12 pack
wooden blocks- I like the company Woodpeckers Crafts
pipe cleaners, beads, pom poms, buttons
One way to make your Art Kit Gift for Kids extra special is to deliver all your goodies in a special splatter painted box. All you need are plain white boxes, liquid watercolors and pipettes.
I used the techniques in my book for the Drip Drop Paints to make these gorgeous boxes! I love using this technique with watercolor paper to make homemade notecards too.
I hope you enjoy putting together your own special Art Kit Gift to bring your little artists hours of joy!
