Qi Creative is committed to creating awesome for children, adolescents, and families of all abilities no matter their circumstances.

Qi Creative clients may find themselves at home for a variety of reasons: Perhaps it’s a summer or winter break from school, or a sick day keeps you at home. Some are homeschooled and looking for resources to liven up a curriculum. Others may be taking more stringent self-isolating measures to protect their health, or are housebound full-time.

We hope the curated resources below can help enhance individual and family time at home for everyone.

UPDATE June 2022: Some of these resources are always free, and some may be free for a limited time. This article was originally published at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
