CreativeKiddies

(Ages 2.5 - 3.5)

Toddlers are active learners. They draw and paint in scribbles for the sake of pleasure.

Our confidence-building and sensory-stimulated program emphasizes experimental discovery, experiential learning and individuality in expression. Art experiences as individual and group activities introduce young children to team-work and collaboration.

With art as a tool for exploring the world, young children are introduced to visual elements, concepts and diverse media. To treasure the progress from scribbles to shapes and symbols, a portfolio will be built to document creative and social development during this early entry to the world of art.

Scribbling Stage

Scribbles are records of children's kinaesthetic arm movements over surfaces. Research* reveals that scribbling is a medium through which children express emotions and experiences with the external world through a process developing from random scribbles (age 1.5) to named scribbles (age 2). Scribbling is more than learning motor control and coordination, but also a tool of communication that transforms into drawings, words, and stories in later stages.
