Not sure what to do with your child's creative potential?

Want to make sure their talent isn't squandered?

Want to make sure that they are learning real skills in art, design, and creative thinking?

Sadly, most kids lose their love of learning and creating as they age.

With academic and extracurricular demands, busy schedules, and their harsh inner critic, you wonder if that could happen to your child.

Want to make sure it doesn't?

What if I told you there was a way for your child to GROW in their curiosity, creativity, and confidence--not lose it? 

All while drawing the things they love and developing their art skills?

Good news...there is. 😁

Your child deserves the nurturing support of a veteran educator.

Your child deserves the nurturing support of an entire community and a teacher who cares.

I'm Daniel Grissom, and I've taught in schools around the world for over 15 years, implementing the proven methods that engage kids in deep learning.

And in every school, it was the same story--children were losing their creative and curious spirit way too early.
I knew I had to do something about this.

After I rediscovered my own love of drawing--after not making art for 20 years--I left the traditional school system and got to work.

I created Kids Cartoon Academy to ensure that other children don't abandon their inner, creative child as they grow up, like I once did.

Since it started two years ago, Kids Cartoon Academy has nurtured the creative spirits and skills of thousands of students.

Our proven methods have helped thousands of young artists find success. Here's how:

We use research-backed  methods honed by years of personal experience in classrooms. Students not only gain art skills from light and shadow to perspective and storytelling, but also a growth mindset and creative problem solving. We primarily focus on three learning principles: Engagement, Targeted Skill Instruction, and Belonging.
