Art & Craft Essentials Kit

The Art & Craft Essentials Kit is an all-in-one classroom solution packed with a diverse range of high-quality art and craft supplies, paired with a mobile Natural Spaces Craft Trolley for seamless organisation. Purposefully curated for early childhood and primary school classrooms, this kit is designed to inspire creativity, streamline access to materials, and maintain a tidy, functional art space. With hundreds of components covering everything from paints and paper to dough, markers, and more, this comprehensive set empowers educators to support artistic development, sensory exploration, and hands-on learning all year round.

The included Natural Spaces Craft Trolley is constructed from durable birch melamine and is equipped with four robust lockable castors for smooth mobility and safe placement. Its clever design features dual-sided access, multiple shelves, and top compartments ideal for storing loose items like pom poms, feathers, and pipe cleaners. Measuring 90cm (L) x 60cm (W) x 63.2cm (H), including wheel height, the trolley can accommodate all the resources included in this kit—with additional room for puzzles, containers, and paper stacks.

This kit represents excellent value as a Kit Saver and is exclusive to MTA, offering the ultimate combination of variety, organisation, and quality for classroom art experiences.
