Art for Kids Hub

82 episodes

Rob draws alongside one of his own kids, and that is the whole format: an adult and a child working the same subject at the same pace. This collection leans hard into animals, among them pufferfish, blue tang, cuttlefish, cardinal, pelican, chicken, manatee, a diving peregrine falcon, and an entire coral reef. The cartoon versions run five or six minutes for the youngest artists; the detailed ones run ten to fifteen, with real layering and shading, and suit upper elementary. Because the subjects are so specific, they pair neatly with an ocean-animals or birds unit as the art half of the day.
