Lockdowns, rainy day or just tapping into your child’s inner Leonardo de Vinci, creative kits for kids are often the best way to keep children inspired at home.
After all, it’s why the NSW Government launched the Creative Kids Voucher. An initiative that has seen NSW families with school age children be handed a $100 subsidy for workshops, lessons or take-home kits in everything from art to coding, music and digital design.
And now, we’ve rounded up which Central Coast businesses delivering art and craft kits straight to your door, with many accepting the Creative Kids Voucher.
1. Charlie Boots, Avoca Beach

There’s everything from robotics kits to clay making kits on their website. Our favourite has to be the tie dye making kits so kids can make their own shirts and bags. What’s amazing is that almost everything on their website is $100 so there’s no extra cost once you use your Creative Kids Voucher.
