Frequently Asked Questions

Who are your boxes for?

Outside The Box Creation is specifically designed for homeschoolers in Kindergarten through 5th grade (ages 5–11). Each Art Curriculum Kit includes four engaging art lessons tailored to young artists, plus additional challenges in each lesson to inspire and engage more advanced learners. Early readers and budding artists will find the main art lessons an excellent fit with some support from a grown-up, while confident early readers can enjoy both the lessons and challenges with greater independence.

What is included in each Art Lesson?

Each Curriculum Kit is a complete art unit featuring four lessons crafted by an experienced art educator. These lessons introduce new techniques, art materials, and foundational elements and principles of fine art. Each unit also highlights a past or present artist or explores a specific art history period for added context and inspiration.

Curriculum Kits include all of the high-quality art materials your student will need, along with an expertly curated children's book to spark creativity. With video tutorials in the Digital Art Room, illustrated guides, and comprehension activities, creating is fun, engaging, and effortless!

How many students can share one Art Unit?

Monthly Curriculum Kits come in two sizes. A Regular Size Art Kit contains supplies for up to 2 artists, while a Family Size Art Kit contains supplies for up to 4! Art Kits available in the One-Time Box Shop are Regular Size.
