Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Art supplies allow our children to enhance their sensory processing skills by touching and manipulating modeling clay, felt fabric, tissue paper, and tempera paint. Engaging with art supplies such as markers and tempera paint sticks helps preschoolers develop fine motor skills. These activities require precise hand-and-finger movements, which are essential for writing and tying shoelaces.

Whether creating a collage, painting a picture, or designing a costume, children can use their imagination to bring their ideas to life.

Construction paper can be cut, folded, and glued to create various shapes and structures. Tempera paint allows children to experiment with color mixing and painting techniques. Markers provide precise lines and details, while fabric offers texture and dimension to their creations. Offering a variety of materials encourages preschoolers to explore different artistic mediums and express themselves in diverse ways.
