I first got introduced to the term ‘Invitations To Create’ from the wonderful Megan at The Art Pantry when I purchased a really inspiring eBook of hers quite some time ago. She’s honestly one of my role models when it comes to doing art with children. To read more about the reasons behind why I started offering Invitations to Create to my toddler, please click here.
Here is a compilation of 31 days of simple invitations to create that I did with my toddler over the course of a month. To read more about the supplies and details involved in the setting up and process of each invitation, simply click on the individual links below.
