31 Days of Drawing Ideas for Kids to help inspire creative thinking!
Creativity is a skill that can be developed. Like any muscle, the brain needs to be exercised and challenged. Join us as we create 31 days of drawing ideas to help inspire the imagination.
Sometimes the hardest part of creating a new piece of art is getting started.
It can be hard to overcome a white paper or blank canvas/sketchbook staring back at you.
In an effort to help encourage creative thinking for kids, we are posting 31 days of free printable creative drawing ideas for kids.
Simply download and print and spark some creativity in your children (or you)!
While these drawing prompts are geared towards kids they really are for any age. I encourage you to draw with your child.
Print off two copies so you each have your own paper (don’t draw on theirs) and be inspired!

What a great idea! Love that these are super quick activities. I am an English teacher soI am excited to modify some of these ideas to use in my writer’s workshop.

Love your challenge! My youngest does not think of himself as being creative. He’s more analytical and doesn’t like to “waste time” coloring or crafting. Your topics will be a good challenge for him.
