Art Student Resources
Do your children just love to do art projects? Have you run out of ideas? Sick of
cleaning up messes? These art links are just the ticket! Here you will find plenty
of helpful art tips, which will keep you and the children busy for many days to come.
From drawing lessons, to painting and the many origami designs and patterns, this is
one page your family will return to again and again.
If you are anything like me, when it comes to art, I draw a complete blank. If it were
not for the Internet, I would be shelling out hundreds of dollars each year, just for
craft ideas and projects to do with my son. Be sure to visit the Museum section, many
museums offer free days, free craft projects and special on- and off-line activities
created especially for children.
