Art programs improve children’s emotional balance. They become self-directed learners and this can only help their academic learning.
It’s a sensory experience!
In our art studio children use the environment and the adults around them. Children use their sense of TOUCH, FEELING, LISTENING and OBSERVING to learn and explore.
We encourage child-initiated activities where they use their own ideas. This is an essential process for later more academic content.
For the love of Art- our Piccolo Picasso class allows preschoolers and parents to have free reign to get messy and express themselves through creative play. And we do the clean up. It’s the process!
At our studio, the end product, if there is one at all, is not as important as the artistic creative process. As the children become more willing to try new materials, the more self-assured they become.
