Free Downloadable Toolkit
 
Inspire design, creativity, and hands-on discovery with our Craft Studio Hub — a free, professionally curated resource that supports open-ended making, visual storytelling, and sustainable exploration.
 
This hub empowers children and young people to work with paper, recycled materials, fabric, natural items and more, as they build, sculpt, weave, collage, and invent. 
 
Whether experimenting with colour, exploring texture, or solving design challenges, the Craft Studio Hub promotes problem-solving, persistence, and personal expression.
 
Perfect for enriching your creative spaces or embedding sustainability into your daily practice, this free toolkit helps educators plan intentional provocations, scaffold fine motor skills, and capture meaningful learning — all while linking directly to frameworks and the National Quality Standard.
