A little time at the art table can become a character-building project.
This is a selection from Kevin Coulston’s own catalog. Numbers organize the choices and do not indicate independent ratings.
Why these ten fit this plan
These are six-step books for ages 5+. Each begins with drawing construction, with decoration optional afterward.
Use the activity label and individual book description to choose the format. The best first project is the one the child wants to begin; it can be completed at their own pace.
