So my first tip is get online The TateĀ have online galleries where you can discover art. Matisse is a great artist to learn about, He created the picture in this post, Using flat cut out shapes he created works of art. Your child can then recreate their own art work with simple scissors and paperĀ šØĀ ā£
For older children they will love pop art, think Andy Warholās Campbell Soup paintings! Let them discover what they love and get creative.Ā šØā£

Get out on the gardenĀ š³Ā or go on a walk and collect moss, leavesĀ šæ, pebbles and twigs and shellsĀ šĀ and create your own mini garden in a tray or pot, whatever you have to hand. This will stimulate their creative juices again, get them outside and exercising and the great thing is there is no wrong way! you can get great inspiration on Pinterest just search kids tray gardenĀ š±Ā Younger children can then get outĀ š¦Ā or fairiesĀ š§āāļøĀ to play in the garden.ā£
