Painting

Painting is a fun way to talk to the children about colors.
Older toddlers sometimes tell you what they are drawing.
Sometimes some strong emotions are expressed!

She is not happy about getting paint on her fingers.

He is in the painting zone.
A very happy boy.

Painting is a great open ended art activity. We emphasize, and the toddlers enjoy, the process of painting. Experimenting and learning about how to manipulate the paintbrush with the paint to achieve the desired result, as well as learning about different colors and shapes and lines.
