Free Downloadable Toolkit
 
Celebrate creativity, emotional expression, and sensory exploration with our Paint & Create Hub — a vibrant, free toolkit designed to support process-based art, confidence-building, and hands-on discovery.
 
This hub invites children and young people to explore colour, texture, and form through open-ended experiences such as painting, stamping, collage, and sculpting. It offers a calm, expressive space where children can express emotions, explore their identity, and build fine motor skills — all while embracing the joy of making.
 
Whether you’re nurturing visual storytelling, building self-esteem, or encouraging creativity without pressure, this free resource equips educators with language prompts, inclusive practices, and intentional documentation strategies — all aligned to EYLF V2.0, MTOP V2.0, and the NQS.
