Guilt Free, Screen-Free Creativity For Your Kids At Home or On The Go!

30(ish) minutes of screen-free art making, music & story listening engagement for your kids.

Independent fun with simple art materials that you already have on hand.

Inspiration to spark your child’s creativity while you enjoy a break (or join in the draw-along fun!)

About The Show

A young girl and a young boy are drawing and coloring at a wooden table, surrounded by art supplies and papers, in a cozy room with wooden furniture.

Whether it’s Saturday morning, a rainy day inside, or long stretches of time in transit… every parent needs a pocket of calm, and kids need creative outlets that don’t involve screens.

That’s why I created The Fairy Tale Art Cart Podcast (yep, that’s my own kids, listening & drawing along to an episode)!

Each episode blends a folktale with creative drawing prompts so that kids become the illustrators of the part of the story they just listened to.

Kids listen, imagine, and draw along —all while parents get 30 minutes of reliable downtime.

With nothing more than paper and crayons, your child will:

  • Explore their imagination through interactive storytelling

  • Build creative confidence, focus, and empathy

  • Stay happily occupied without turning to a tablet or TV

Whether you need a quiet moment to make dinner, finish an email, or simply rest, the Fairy Tale Art Cart Podcast is a screen-free activity you can feel good about.

  • Two children, a girl and a boy, wearing birthday party hats, holding drawings of a rainbow-colored, multi-tiered cake. They are sitting at a kitchen counter with a box of colored markers in front of them, smiling at the camera.
  • A young girl sitting on an airplane seat, drawing in a notebook with her head resting on a book. There is a pink and purple Instagram story overlay with a congratulatory message and a cartoon cat with a party hat at the bottom right.
  • Kids sitting on a quilted blanket, listening to a podcast, with toys and food items around them on the floor, in a cozy indoor setting.
  • Two children, a girl and a boy, sitting at a wooden dining table, engaging in watercolor art. The table is cluttered with art supplies, including markers, glue, and paper. The girl, wearing a purple shirt, and the boy, wearing a red shirt, are focused on their drawings.

“My 5 year old loves this podcast. He is not an avid podcast listener, but the art breaks make the story so much more manageable for a young brain and allow his creativity to shine! He loves the stories and drawing and I love the global folktales and the screen-free entertainment!”

“I enjoyed listening with my kids who are 6 and 4. I was surprised at how into the drawing breaks they got, and loved seeing how they rendered things from their imagination. My daughter in particular keeps asking to do more of these in the afternoons, when we have quiet time.”
