Kindyart- Art classes for preschoolers.

KINDYART CLASS KindyArt is brand new and will be open for business in Term 2 2014. We offer fun and relaxed art classes for 2-5 year olds accompanied by a parent/ carer. Each lesson will be inspired by and created from a picture book read at the beginning of each class. Your little artist will be delighted to see the book come to life as they create their own art piece that focuses on a particular art technique each week. Your little artists will get their hands on a wide variety of arty materials including paints, crayons, chalk pastels, oil pastels, glue, clay, charcoal and much more! KindyArt kids will be presented at the end of each term with a laminated A4 certificate showcasing their art work. This is a lovely way for parents and kids to keep a record of their art work. SKILLS FOR SCHOOL While KindyArt kids are having fun being arty they are also learning many skills to get them ready for school. Some of these skills include recognizing patterns, shapes and colors, pencil grip, practicing fine motor skills, pre-reading skills, making marks ready for writing, working on eye-hand coordination, following simple instructions, working together, appreciating art, being creative and building confidence to have a go!
