TinkerLab Kids Art Studio
Art Experiments & Creative Confidence For Kids
Open-ended creative activities where the process matters more than the outcome.
Never Run Out of Art Ideas Again
You know creativity matters.
But between complicated setups, dreaded cleanup, and wondering if you're "artistic enough," meaningful art time rarely happens.
Does This Sound Familiar?
You watch your child rush through activities, missing the joy of discovery that art experiments should bring (and leaving you wondering if they’re secretly training for an art speed competition)
Your heart sinks when your child says ‘we already did that’ to every art activity you suggest
You feel awful, seeing promising art supplies collect dust while your child gravitates to screens for instant entertainment
What if creative time became the highlight of your day instead of another source of stress?
Imagine instead...
You set up engaging activities in minutes
Children confidently experiment with materials their own way
You watch faces light up with pride as they discover creative solutions
How The Kids Art Studio Works
1. Simple Setup. Because you don’t need another complicated system (or another reason to question your life choices at 9pm)
2. Spark Curiosity Through Art Experiments. Where the real magic happens through open-ended creative activities that value process more than the outcome
3. Watch Confidence Bloom. When your child stops saying ‘”I can’t” and starts saying “Let me show you what I made!” Hint: This is why it all matters!
Why this works
1. simple setup
Remember when play used to be simple? We’re bringing that back. Our method starts with what you already have at home – no special materials, no art degree required.
2. spark curiosity
Witness your child move from “I’m bored” to “Can I try that?” Our art experiments encourage kids to explore materials freely, without worrying about making it “right.”
3. watch confidence bloom
See the change as your child discovers their creative voice. Parents tell us this is the moment that makes it all worth it – when their child stops saying “I can’t” and starts saying “Let me show you what I made!”

a great fit for:
- You value open-ended, child-directed creativity
- You’re looking for flexible and engaging projects

- You want direct instruction over exploration
Hey there, I'm Rachelle
As a mom, educator, and founder of TinkerLab, I’ve spent over two decades helping thousands of parents and teachers nurture children’s creative thinking through art. I believe that every child deserves the chance to think like an artist and inventor, and that making art should be joyful, not something that makes you wonder why you ever bought washable markers that aren’t actually that washable.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an art experiment?
It’s creative play that prioritizes curiosity and discovery over perfect results.
How much time do I need for each project?
Most projects take 5-15 minutes to set up and can be explored for as long as your child is engaged. Videos are around 5 minutes, making them perfect for busy families like yours.
Do I need special art supplies?
You probably have most of what you need already! Our core supplies are simple: paper, crayons, markers, paint, glue, scissors, and items from nature or your recycling bin. We have a few projects with fun, specialty supplies, but for the most part no fancy art store trips required! (Though we can’t stop you from using those Michael’s coupons burning a hole in your pocket.)
What art experiments are included?
Our creative library includes over 300 experiences – from painting, drawing, and printmaking to building, STEAM activities, fiber arts, and seasonal projects – all designed to spark curiosity while keeping setup simple.
I'm not artistic - can I really do this?
Absolutely! The projects are designed for EVERYONE, not just “artistic people,” (although we firmly believe we’re all artistic…seriously!) We provide clear guidance that makes the process enjoyable for both you and your child.
What ages is this for?
Projects are designed for children ages 3-8, with specific tips for adapting to different developmental stages and interests. Many families use the same activities with children of various ages.
Can I cancel my membership?
Yes, you can cancel anytime! Monthly members can stop at any point. Annual members commit for one year but are backed by our 10-day money-back guarantee for complete peace of mind.
How do I access the content?
Unlike random projects you might find online, the TinkerLab Kids Art Studio provides a thoughtfully curated, searchable library of process-based art experiences. Each project includes clear video guidance, expert tips, and focuses on building creative confidence – not just pretty end results.
How is this different from free activities online?
Unlike random projects you might find online, the Kids Art Studio provides a thoughtfully curated, searchable library of process-based art experiences. Each project includes clear video guidance, expert tips for success, and a focus on creative thinking skills – not just pretty end results. Plus, you’ll save countless hours searching for and testing activities that may or may not work.
Can multiple children use one membership?
Yes! One membership covers your whole family. Since projects adapt easily to different ages, many families tell us this is an especially good value – all their children can enjoy the same activities in their own unique way.
Can I share a membership with other teachers or families?
One membership per family or classroom, please. If your friend would like to join, please direct them to this page so they can start their own creative journey. ❤️
Do you have a sample video I can preview to see if this is a fit for us?
Yes! Register for a free sample of three of our projects in the Kids Art Studio Starter Pack. You’ll try out three of the 300+ activities waiting for you when you join.
How can I reach you with a question?
