To the art-mobile…
First, a free challenge you won’t want to miss.
The Homeschool Art Revolution
Need a little help with the creative side of your homeschool? I have just the thing!
Join Art History Kids for 5 days of creative inspiration… The Homeschool Art Revolution is a free weeklong challenge, and you’re invited!
The challenge began on Monday, September 6th, but is open and available to access right up until September 23rd 2021.
Sign up for this free challenge here –
➡ www.arthistorykids.com/2021revolution
🎨So, what’s this art revolution all about? It’s an exciting new way to approach to art that replaces traditional tutorials and demonstrations with learning that’s interactive and engaging.
🎨And it’s customized to meet your kids where they’re at! (So kids of all different ages and skill levels can participate together!)
🎨 Plus, each day you’ll learn how you can bring art into your homeschool day… even if you don’t know anything about art history.
We’re loving this challenge so far and we’re only on day one. We’re taking our time and soaking up all the goodness Lotus has to share. This first day is all about creating space in our homes and schedules for art and has given us so much to think about.
We enjoyed The Nutcracker challenge offered last Christmas. It was great fun, and we learnt loads. And already, it’s clear this challenge is going to be as good, if not better 🙂
Art History Kids is jam-packed with a dazzling array of amazing resources. Discover a diverse range of artists and learn about their lives. A chance to appreciate and delight in different styles, techniques and art movements, as we’re inspired to create our own works of art.
Loads of fun for all the family, Art History Kids has a fantastic free learning library full of fun projects, check them out here. And if you’re keen to dig even deeper find out about their monthly membership program The Studio here.
