All children benefit from a space to be creative. Children are eager to explore different mediums, textures, and ways to express themselves. What to expect in class: Sculpt with playdough, create a collage, or experiment with different mediums. Get creative with puppets and dramatic play; and let the inspiration flow making one-of-a-kind works of art! Physical Benefits: Working with different textures supports sensory input, fine motor, and gross motor skills. Cognitive Benefits: Creating your own work supports confidence and problem-solving skills. Social Benefits: Not only are children learning social skills by sharing a work space and creating with others, they are also able to express themselves through another outlet before they have the verbal capacity to do so. Adults: Get uninterrupted time with your little one; watch them create and play!
