"Joy" Art & Play Guide

$30.00

In this guide, we bring you creative invitations and experiences that spark joy, breathe new life into tired spaces and systems, and help refresh foundational concepts that children love to return to over and over again. It doesn’t have to be complicated, and you don’t have to have any special materials or tools. In fact, we are really excited to show you the many ways to repurpose things you already have. Whether painting on big pieces of cardboard, building a cozy fort with fabric, or cutting and gluing collage bits and pieces, this month we help you find those things that spark joy with the children in your world.

Our curriculum is inclusive and honors each child’s individuality and way of thinking and working. Consider each guide like a beautiful magazine where creativity meets education. They are more than a collection of art ideas, they are the KEY to a cohesive, child-centered, manageable creative practice for your family at

Included in this guide:

  • Each month is based on a theme or “Big Idea” that ties to every offering in the guide

  • 20 creative invitations using everyday, low-prep materials that are either recycled, collected in nature, or already on hand

  • 2 extended art projects that can be worked on over a longer period of time to build creative confidence, either collaboratively or individually in the classroom

  • Master supply list

  • Mindfulness routines to help nurture connection and physical and emotional development, build in opportunities to self-regulate, and feel grounded throughout the school day

  • Tips on organizing and designing the classroom environment to nurture independence

  • Guidance on extending invitations through the use of stations to inspire more creativity and innovation and for children to return to independently

  • Curricular connections within the guide’s creative offerings in math, literacy, science, and social studies

  • A rich, teacher-approved picture book list with an emphasis on diversity, inclusion, earth stewardship, and kindness

  • An artist spotlight that connects with the theme and nurtures a child’s curiosity, provides them with ways to notice and appreciate diverse perspectives and establishes an early foundation for art appreciation

  • A one-page calendar of the month’s invitations for easy reference and planning
