(Also known as: Art Table or Quiet Drawing Space)
 
Free Downloadable Toolkit
 
Nurture imagination, fine motor skills, and visual communication with our Drawing Studio Hub — a calming, creative toolkit designed to support children’s storytelling, emotional expression, and early literacy through drawing.
 
This hub offers space for children and young people to explore mark-making, sketching, and idea representation using a variety of tools and surfaces. Whether it’s spontaneous drawing, self-portraits, or prompts for visual storytelling, the Drawing Studio encourages quiet concentration, symbolic thinking, and confident expression.
 
Whether you’re supporting mindfulness, pre-writing skills, or creativity across the curriculum, this free toolkit equips educators with prompts, strategies, and intentional teaching links that bring the power of drawing to life — with direct alignment to learning frameworks and NQS.
