Growing Hands

Help me give my students opportunities. Art is so much more than creating a beautiful picture. As my students paint, color, cut,roll play dough, and explore different materials, they develop hand strength, coordination, creativity, problem-solving skills, and self-expression.

My Project

Before our youngest learners can write their names, zip their coats, or hold a pencil with confidence, they need opportunities to strengthen the small muscles in their hands. My three-year-old classroom is eager to learn through hands-on exploration, and quality art supplies will provide meaningful opportunities to build fine motor skills while supporting every area of development.

Art is so much more than creating a beautiful picture.

As my students paint, color, cut, glue, roll play dough, and explore different materials, they are developing hand strength, coordination, creativity, problem-solving skills, and self-expression. These experiences also encourage language development, social-emotional growth, and confidence as children learn to share ideas, make choices, and take pride in their work.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
