ART & CRAFT

Babies, Toddlers and children love Art & Craft as it helps them to explore the world around them.

From birth babies love looking at faces, initially mum and dad but they are also fascinated by images of people and animals. This progresses to focusing on, and interacting with things that they see in everyday life. Imagine seeing everyday objects through their eyes! What do they taste like, how do they feel?

This is when early Art & Craft comes in

Babies run their fingers through sand at the beach or in the park, enjoy the sensation of water on their body in the bath, or rub their legs on grass just to see what it feels like.  This progresses to building sand castles (and knocking them down), finger painting (as well as eating and wearing the paint) and more structured Art & Craft activities.
