Hi! I’m Andrea Mulder-Slater and I’ve been a professional artist and art educator for more than 25 years and an art curriculum developer for 20+ years. I’ve also homeschooled my daughter for the past 12 years and I recently wrote a drawing prompts book for children.
In addition to teaching art and art history classes and workshops at the elementary, secondary and post-secondary levels, I have also has worked as an educational consultant on various art education projects. Together my mom Jantje Blokhuis-Mulder (an artist and arts advocate with 40 years of experience working with children of all ages) have taught more than 5500 children and more than 15000 adults in person!
The two of us created KinderArt® in 1997. It’s a website offering free art lessons, which has been visited more than 100 million times in the last ten years alone.
Our passion lies in helping teachers and parents bring out the creativity in their children, even if they don’t consider themselves artists. Our detailed child-tested lesson plans are easy to implement, and are guaranteed to promote creative exploration in small or large group settings. Most of all, the lessons are effective and they encourage individuality.
The lessons inside the club involve so much more than art. Most feature “sneaky” curriculum connections, so kids will learn about science, nature, history, world cultures, geography and literature, without even realizing it!
If children have access to the kind of quality art education that The KinderArt Club provides, they will thrive.
Thanks for joining me!
~Andrea
