Hi There! I wanted to share the many benefits of doodling and why it is important to encourage children to doodle. My daughter loves to doodle and this is why I wanted to write this post. Here are the 5 benefits (there are many more but I wanted to list my personal top 5):
I hope that you are encourage to grab a pencil and paper and doodle yourself. Doodling is relaxing as there is no pressure to create any master pieces. It is an organic way of creating art and the exciting thing is that it is a stepping stone to an expanded idea.

![]() Hi Everyone! It has been awhile since my latest post. I have been taking this summer to really create products and I am having a blast. I truly enjoy creating resources that encourages drawing and art. It has been a joy. This month has been my best month in producing resources as well as sales at my TPT shop. Who would've thought that this is where my art endeavor took me! I homeschool my children and we started the school year in the beginning of August. I wanted a head start for us to catch up and review some of last year's curriculum. My goal for this school year is to start incorporating some of my own art resources in our learning as I think they are old enough. I encourage each of you to find ways to add art to all subjects as I think children naturally gravitate to creating art. It engages them and truly build up their confidence. With this said check out my Back to School Artist Pack and have a blessed year!

Have fun with these coloring pages in celebration of Autumn. There are 5 coloring pages focusing on patterns, lines and shapes and there are 5 blank pages to create your own design. Have fun coloring images of pies, apples, leaves, hot drinks and gourds.
I am excited to introduce a new drawing product line, Think INSIDE the Box drawing prompts, that is inspired by my popular Think OUTSIDE the Box drawing prompts. I had a lot of fun creating these prompts and I wanted to come up with something that was a little bit easier for those that find the Think Outside the Box prompts difficult. Therefore, this is a slightly different version from the Think Outside the Box prompts and students will be drawing what is suggested in the drawing prompts. Stay tune for more variations to these drawing prompts and have a creative day!
Here is a fun way to introduce learning the alphabets with drawing that is good for early learners and grade K students. There are 21 pages in a PDF file. The first three pages start your students off with designing their own alphabets, whether they are focusing on the letter or what starts with each letter. The rest of the pages include flash cards in color and black/white. A great value!
