The Purple Cow Art/Lit Kits utilize literature (books, poetry, music lyrics, etc.) as the driving theme for art activities that emphasize exploration, experimentation and self-expression. The projects are designed to focus on the creative process rather than the final product or outcomes. Each kit includes the book, poetry, or song, all needed art supplies, written instructions and/or access to video instructions, discussions questions about the book and the art process, and a list of activities and resources that can aid in the development of reading, art, and other educational skills.
