As children work with different art materials, they experiment with color, shape, design, and texture. Through their art they can express their ideas and their feelings. They develop planning skills while creating. They also develop small muscles and eye-hand coordination. They often express delight upon completion of their creation. |

Parents can
provide art materials that offer opportunities for
imagination, experimentation, individuality, and discovery.
Let children use art materials such as paint, markers,
crayons, scissors, glue, hole punches, and collage
materials. Provide blank paper so that their creation is
truly open-ended, creative, and individualistic. Designate a
safe place where the art materials are to be used. Be sure
to have a place ready to hang up all of the wonderful
creations!
