One of the reasons we love chalk pastels is simply because this medium is frugal art for all ages. As a teacher and a mother, I know I have been intimidated by a long list of expensive art supplies. The fear of the cost and the fear of simply being able to accomplish the art time would make me not even attempt it. At Hodgepodge and ChalkPastel.com, we think that art time should simply be easy to do. Creative times can even be spontaneous. But they can always be fun! Why? Because you ARE an artist!

Chalk Pastels Are Frugal Art for All Ages

Frugal. Fearless. Fun.

With our chalk pastel art tutorials we have always suggested that you simply start with a beginner set of chalk pastels. A simple starter set of about 12 chalk pastels can be shared among your children and purchased for around $10.

*Don’t miss the chalk pastels giveaway at the end! This post contains affiliate links to art supplies we adore. Please see our full disclosure policy. If you click on the links, you won’t pay anything extra but you will help us continue to offer frugal art tutorials. Thanks for that!

Guess what? You can even break a chalk pastel stick in half to share. Nana shows you how in this video…

About Hodgepodgemom

Tricia faces a daily dose of chaos homeschooling five children. The biggest lesson she’s learned? At the end of the day – when the dishes are put away and the children are tucked in bed – truly what matters is each child’s relationship with the Lord. Raising children is a God-given privilege and, folks, the time is short.

    We have been using chalk pastels for right at a year now. I can not say which is Seth’s favorite tutorial because he gets so excited each time a new tutorial comes out. Thank you for introducing us to chalk pastels, they have helped my son in ways I would never have thought possible.
