The Arts — printable resources

Expressing creative ideas and feelings through visual arts, music, drama, movement, and imaginative play.

The Arts in the PYP is a powerful transdisciplinary vehicle for children to explore, interpret, and express their feelings and ideas. Our rich collection of creative printables includes imaginative drawing prompts, themed colouring pages, and scissor-ready craft templates. These activities support early art skills and fine motor development, allowing young learners to play, manipulate materials, and express their unique creativity and budding imagination.

Use these visual art and craft printables to inspire child-led inquiry and self-expression. Rather than directing a uniform outcome, use these sheets as open invitations for EY1, EY2, and EY3 children to experiment with mixed media. This approach fosters a culture of play-based inquiry, encouraging children to share the stories behind their creations. It nurtures the caring, open-minded, and creative attributes of the learner profile.
