All that's required is a child's creative mind.

Today, it's simple to find just about any kind of Christmas gift at your local retailer, but it's so much more fun to see your kids inject their unique personalities and style into your home with their gifts. Not to mention, these gifts are ready for The 'Gram. One of the best ways to do this, this holiday season, is with art gifts. You can give Do-A-Dots to make a good first impression for your newly adopted nephew, or even give a decorative bowl craft kit your tween daughter can assemble herself. The options are many if you're inspired - which is why you have Beyond the Blackboard. 

And because kids' art is affordable, the art items we suggest giving this Christmas won't break the holiday bank. Plus, anything Ooly makes a statement all on its own. Get some shopping done early with this roundup of creative Christmas art gifts for all ages, ranging from a bracelet maker to playful and nostalgic spirograph.

Ooly Collection

Ditch the traditional art supplies for art supplies featuring award-winning artists, brimming with personality. Dress them up with our signature holiday giftwrap, featuring a sleigh bell, to make even more of an impact.

Do-A-Dots

Recycle your old markers. Save your old paints. Simply place a bundle of Do-A-Dots in front of your toddler, preschooler, or young elementary art enthusiast and see their new creations come to life. Don't forget to display your favorites.

Paper Bowls

Who doesn't love a good catch-all or trinket dish? Your teen can show off her creativity by turning pretty patterned paper into eye-catching dorm, home, or room décor. Place everything from holiday baubles to jewelry inside the finished bowls for a cheery addition to any space.

Loopdedoo Kit

For a fun and unexpected extra, ask us to attach some CHARM IT charms to the giftwrap, she can add to her bracelets!

Go for a mix of vintage and current holiday trends to make a creative and memorable gift. Finished, these carvings can also serve as perfectly photo-worthy gifts themselves, for family and friends.

Spirograph

Pretty metallic designs are just begging to be displayed next to their lava lamp and Lite-Brite.
