🎨 Creativity was in full swing in the art atelier today! 🎨
This morning, the children explored some brand-new art techniques:
Wire, bead & button sculptures. Twisting and threading wire through colorful beads and buttons took focus, fine motor strength, and lots of imagination.
Collaborative sculptures. Working together with styrofoam, golf tees, rubber bands, and pipe cleaners, the children built shared creations, negotiating ideas and adding to each other’s work.
Squeegee painting. Dragging paint across the paper with squeegees created bold, sweeping designs and gave the children a fresh way to experience color and movement.
Rainbow collages. Collage continues to be a class favorite! Choosing, arranging, and layering colors and shapes lets each child make their own artistic decisions.
Through open-ended exploration, the children practice problem solving, teamwork, and self-expression, all while having fun. It was a creativity-filled morning!
