Hi there! I’m Ximena Yanez, and I’m so glad you’re here. After more than a decade nurturing young minds in the classroom, I felt a calling to reach beyond those walls and inspire makers everywhere. I’ve seen firsthand how creative exploration can transform a child’s world, and I truly believe the arts are not just enrichment, they’re essential.

​

That belief is at the heart of Scribbles & Sprouts. Here, we offer thoughtfully designed programs that celebrate each child’s unique voice, while nurturing emotional intelligence, curiosity, and joy right from the start.

​

Scribbles & Sprouts is built on experience, fueled by a deep passion, and driven by the dream of making art accessible and meaningful for every learner. I’m creating a space where children feel seen, supported, and inspired to shine and I’m so excited to have you join us on this journey.

​

With gratitude,
Ximena

The Vision

Creativity, originality, and emotional growth are at the core of our teaching philosophy, guiding children to embrace the artistic process and celebrate their unique perspectives.

Our Creative Story

At Scribbles & Sprouts, we are dedicated to providing a vibrant space where young minds can explore their artistic interests and develop their creative potential.

Our studio in Charleston, SC, focuses on the journey of art rather than the final masterpiece, nurturing originality, critical thinking and emotional growth in children aged 2-10.
