July 29th, 2008 · No Comments · Amazon, Arts

art education books and kitWhile other parents give their kids mass-produced Disney and Nickelodeon coloring books, here’s a fantatic way to introduce your kids to something much more special.

The Art Ed Books and Kits are a terrific idea. It’s a series of fun kits that each centers around a great artist. Not only does the book give a biography of the artist with full-color reproductions of the artist’s work and photos of the artist at work, it includes paper, non-toxic paint, oil pastels, pencils, brushes, palettes, glue—whatever the artist actually uses or used–and an 8-page activity book with easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions for children to create their own masterpieces based on the artist’s techniques.

Each kit is approved by the individual artist or his/her estate. With Art Ed Books and Kits, children not only learn about great artists, they can learn to paint like them, too.

Here are the great artists who are represented in this series:
