Does your child love creating arts and crafts using a variety of materials? When children participate in arts and crafts they develop their own individual craftsmanship. As a child creates, they have begun the process of communicating visually. This enrichment program will help your child learn some basic art techniques and how to express themselves visually using a variety of art mediums. It will also help them follow instructions, further develop their fine motor skills, brainstorm ideas, collaborate with their peers and use their problem solving skills.The crafts planned for this enrichment program are structured activities with specific goals in mind. Some of the project ideas planned for this program may include: Mexican Huichol Yarn Paintings, Craft Stick Treasure Boxes, Zentangle Leaf Drawings, Oil Pastel Scratch Art Mandala Paintings, Paper Mache Turtles, Sharpie Tye Dye, Watercolor Peacock Collages, Clay Wind Chimes, Safari Animal Paintings, Animal Wood Slice Art, Galaxy Paintings and Clay Owls.
