If your family loves Disney and art, you're in for a real treat. Disney recently put together a compilation of free drawing classes that you can take right from the comfort of home. All of the classes are done by Disney character artists, and one is even done by an actual animator from Frozen 2! There are quite a few characters to pick from, including three variations of Mickey Mouse, Genie, Olaf, and Jack Skellington. The classes take anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes, and all you need are a piece of paper and a pencil.
For moms and dads working from home right now, and with restless kids, this activity is perfect. It keeps kiddos entertained and using the creative part of their brain while Mom and Dad can get some work done. Scroll through to see all of the character options and look out for more on Disney's social media channels soon.
