Arts & Crafts
Before all other types of stimuli, children respond visually to the world around them. Art teaches children to discriminate and become spatially aware. They are able to express themselves visually before verbal or written communication.
Aesthetic awareness is raised through aspects of symmetry, balance and proportion.
Creative development both visual (2D) and hap tic (3D) is crucial in terms of fine and gross motor skills. Through art, children learn to communicate their awareness of the world around them and their relationship to that world.
The therapeutic activity of Art & Craft allows children a sense of identity through mark making and recording.
Above all else – ART IS FUN!!
