Art Projects

What’s learned?

Art projects are excellent for developing a child’s fine motor skills. It takes small-muscle control in order to manipulate clay, cut with scissors, paint with a brush and draw with markers or crayons.

As these skills are practiced, they help a child gain mastery to cut with a knife, button their own clothes and print their names.

Art projects build a child’s self esteem. It’s an opportunity for the child to say: “I can do it!”

The process, not the product, is the most important element of preschool art projects.
