What is art?
Part of everyday life
As a trim, seen as nonessential or elitist
Valuable commodity
Visual communication through elements of color, line, shapre, and texture instead of words
Why is art important for young children?
A child’s art belongs to the child
No adult interpretation or descriptions can, or should, describe what a child has created
Part of child’s own process of communication and creativity
The first mark made with a crayon, dips a brush into paint or glued coloured circles onto the paper is the birth of a creative process
Child freely experience the sheer pleasure of getting to know himself in a new way, self-expression
Fundamental growth of a child
Integration of many skills and basic experiences
