Most art resources are built for older kids.

A 5th grade watercolor lesson doesn't translate to a room full of 4-year-olds. TinyBrush is designed from the ground up for the youngest classrooms — and the teachers who love them.

Time-tagged

Every project shows real classroom time: 15, 30, or 45 minutes. No more guessing if it fits before recess.

🎨

Material-first

Browse by what you actually have. Crayons, paper plates, watercolors, glue sticks — not what you wish you had.

Standards-aligned

Every activity maps to NCAS standards so you can show administrators that art time is learning time.

here's how it works ✏️

From "what do I teach today?" to done.

1

Pick a grade

Choose Pre-K, Kindergarten, 1st, or 2nd. Every idea is built for that specific age — not adapted down from something older.

2

Filter by reality

Select your materials, available time, and whether you need a sub-friendly plan. Get results that actually work in your classroom.

3

Teach with joy

Step-by-step instructions, teacher tips, and everything you need — nothing you don't. Your class is going to love this one.

Browse by what's in your supply closet. 🗄️

Budget's tight. Supply closet is unpredictable. TinyBrush helps you find great projects based on what you actually have on hand — not what the project "requires."

Every child is an artist.

TinyBrush exists because the youngest classrooms deserve art resources built for them — not adapted down from somebody else's curriculum. You deserve better tools.
