Color, shape and big imaginations
Art class teaches kids to see the world and make something new. Young artists learn color names, how to mix primary colors into new ones, and how to cut, glue and draw basic shapes. As they grow, they explore lines, patterns, texture and space, and they learn about famous artists and different cultures. They also learn to plan, revise and talk about their work. The click moment is when a child mixes blue and yellow and gasps "I made green!"
You don't need fancy supplies. These moves use simple shapes and a lot of imagination.
