Creative family life,
across generations.
The Artful Parent is a magazine for families who want more connection, imagination, and emotional depth in everyday life — steered by Editors-in-Chief Graeme and Jeanette Brown.
What we cover
The home as a studio
Parenting, grandparents, grown children, family roles, memory, rituals, and the small creative choices that make a home feel alive.
The years that shape us
Development, imagination, feelings, play, learning, confidence, and the practical realities of helping children grow.
Making as connection
Hands-on projects, seasonal crafts, sensory play, drawing, painting, collage, and the creative archive that made The Artful Parent beloved.
We treat creativity as something bigger than crafts. It is how families notice each other, repair, remember, and keep becoming.
Who steers the magazine
Graeme and Jeanette Brown — a husband-and-wife team, grandparents, and parents of writer Lachlan Brown — serve as Editors-in-Chief. Meet the full masthead, including this week’s writers, on our Masthead page.
