Mother Earth Art
When children make art, the process is not only fun but beneficial in many ways. Art in nature contributes to a child's well-being, happiness, concentration and overall health. Each session we will work with as many natural materials as we can and explore different textures, shapes and colors- all while building fine motor skills! Children will explore nature, search for animals and insects, learn about plants and complete a beautiful piece of art each class!
