Developing Fine Motor Skills through Child Art Projects
My First Crayola, a product line by Crayola, offers art tools tailored to different stages of toddler growth. These tools are designed to help parents select the perfect supplies for their child's development.
The range of art activities available for toddlers is vast and engaging. For instance, the Travel Art Kit includes a reusable activity set, colour and shapes sticker activities books, a double doodle board, mess-free touch lights, a clip board, a pencil pouch, and an optional preschool readiness kit, based on the child's stage.
One such activity is the Draw in a Box, which offers a variety of art tools from different stages, making it suitable for toddlers at every stage.
As toddlers grow, their art activities evolve as well. During the Scribble stage, toddlers make random marks with their palms. Finger painting on a mirror or adding sand to finger paints can make these activities extra fun. During the Doodle stage, toddlers show more control and intention in their mark making and can repeat different types of lines. Triangular shaped art tools are beneficial during this stage.
When they reach the Draw stage, toddlers can draw basic shapes and create recognizable drawings. They love to talk about what they have drawn. Finger painting with a Washable Fingerpaint Kit can be sensory-rich and strengthen little fingers and hands.
The Cutting Bin is another tool that can help toddlers with cutting practice, using safety scissors and various materials.
Tie Dye Paintings can be created by using a spray bottle or rain to blend washable paintbrush pens and ultra clean washable markers on white coffee filters.
Painter's or washi tape can be used to tape coated paper to the table for finger painting, ensuring a mess-free experience.
Choosing the correct art tool for a toddler's current stage is crucial for their fine motor development. The My First Crayola website offers the latest art tools and activity ideas.
