Power of Art

We love watching our kiddos create masterpieces everyday. Giving a child an abundance of materials and letting them shape, color, draw, and mold whatever they want is such a fun way to watch their imaginations come to life. Through free art, children are able to express themselves in their truest forms. This week we are celebrating the Power of Art. We have so many fun activities lined up that are centered around creating masterpieces. Our friends have been so excited to create some fun teacher-guided themed art as well as dive into the crayon box to create free art projects. With this weeks theme, it has allowed us to celebrate how wonderful and wildly imaginative our kids are with a marker and a piece of paper. Check out some of the amazing projects our kiddos have been working on this week. 

One of our littlest friends is ready to get his hands messy for this Fourth of July themed art project! 

Our teachers were so excited to display some adorable Summer themed art! How cute are these strawberry footprints?!

These ice cream cones and footprint popsicles look good enough to eat! These friends felt inspired, after our recent ice cream social, to make the delicious masterpieces! 

Mixed media popsicles are a great way to get those imaginations flowing! These kiddos also had a lot of fun using the dot painters to decorate beach balls! 

We love free art! Isn't art more fun when you don't have to stay inside the lines??

This class is ready for the Fourth of July! They shredded up red and white paper to make flags! 

Free art is such a fun way to express yourself. How do you like to create your free art? Paint, marker, crayon, pencil?

Boom! Bang! Look at these awesome fireworks! This teacher got creative by cutting up the cardboard piece from a toilet paper roll and letting the kiddos dip it in paint to create fireworks! 

What do you think he will create? Using play-doh is a great way to explore 3-D art. Kids are able to create any shape of any size they can think of! 

Using body parts like our hands and feet are great examples of how we can think outside of the box to get different results when creating art. 

Art is way more fun when it's messy!! This allows kiddos to touch and feel and explore what they're using. This also allows kids to use different tools, such as their hands rather than a paint brush, to create art.
