World Art Day is celebrated on 15th April, with the date being chosen to honour the birthday of Leonardo da Vinci. We have lots of fantastic resources to help celebrate art across your school on this day.

Each month we will be highlighting a #MashoftheMonth, focusing on a tool or application within Purple Mash and how it can be used within the classroom to support learning across the curriculum. During the month, if you share how you have used #MashoftheMonth, you will then be entered into a draw to win a 2Simple Goody Bag! This month it's 2Paint a Picture.

Brush up on the art curriculum and how 2Simple can help teachers create amazing art lessons for their pupils with fun and interactive activities and resources.

2Paint a Picture is one of the most popular tools on Purple Mash, and for good reason! Read our blog to find out more about what your students can achieve with 2Paint a Picture.

Children’s Art Week takes place over three weeks from 29th June to 19th July. The celebration of the visual arts aims to encourage families and children to take part in creative activities that they may not have tried before.

During the three weeks, creative activities take place across the UK, both virtually and in-person, and there are a host of opportunities for children to be inspired. Let's discover some of the ways you can get creative with the virtual paint tools inside Purple Mash.
