My Project

Young children love exploring with art materials. In our prekindergarten classroom, my students express themselves in different ways. I would love for them to try a new way to create art.

When they go to the art center, I hope to provide them with this fun, mess free art center and paints so they can create something that goes beyond their imaginations.

These materials are important to have readily available for little ones. The art supplies will give my students the ability to express their thoughts and emotions. It is therapeutic for them to create what they are feeling, as a means of communication. I can't wait to see the fun they will have squeezing the paint out of the bottles on to the spin art center!

The students will also get something to carry their stuffed animal pets that was funded so they can transport them to and from school when they need a friend with them.
