Visual Arts: Ages 3-6

Young children engage mainly in gross motor skills making Visual Art an important component in every child’s life as it focuses on fine motor skills, like how to hold a pencil, draw shapes, how to cut which are all essential to be school ready. Plus we help develop imaginations by drawing say a dog, walking a person.
