At Home Kits and Courses

For many of us, sending our kids out to a new course where you are unsure of class numbers and C19 provisions might be something you might not be prepared to do right now. With this in mind, a number of Creative Kids Voucher providers have prepared Creative Kids home kits so your children can enjoy a creative pursuit from the luxury of your lounge room (or other space).

We’ve pulled together quite a number of options, however please let us know if you stumble across any others so we can add them to the list.

Providers are listed in no particular order. We have not received a kit from any provider and can not confirm which is the best fit for you. Have a read before ordering.
