Teaching children about ART

Recently, My granddaughter came for a few days.  It is never too early to start encouraging children in art.  I even made her a special art smock to keep here at the studio so we could paint together.  

“Kids who grow up making and seeing art—be that visual art, music, dance, theater, or poetry—are not only more empowered to express themselves, they also have stronger language, motor, and decision-making skills, and they’re more likely to excel in other school subjects. And, as they grow up, creativity is an asset for prospective jobs—not just in the arts and creative industries, but beyond it.”

As I am always wanting to teach my grandchildren as well as our young clients about art, I am always in search of new ideas and education.  I came across a great article @artsy and want to share it as it is fantastic.
