Last week was my first week without Margret and can you believe it, I didn't get any photos?! I thought that I would try beading, lacing, weaving, sewing. It was just not messy enough for me!! This week is a couple of days before Valentine's day so we are going to create some Valentine inspired arts. Lots of sparkles, hearts, glue, and paint.
Thinking about changing the set up of the class. I have been tossing around the idea of, instead of having the whole class as a theme, having each table dedicated to one kind of material and each week using that material differently. That way if a child likes paint, there will always be paint. Or if a kid likes glueing there will always be a differrent glueing project. After next weeks class I am going to give this new set up a try and see how it goes. I would also like to end the class with an interactive story or song which will maybe help with the last 15 mins.
See you next week

A Child's Introduction to Materials
Creative Exploration is a process based class that introduces children to a variety of different materials. Each week there is a common theme explored through a series of art stations. Each station is a different example of how that weeks material can be used. Children are free to move around and explore each station as they please. Parents are encouraged to participate with their children.
Creative Exploration was created to encourage children to explore and use their imaginations. The concept of the class was created with the hope that it would instill a strong foundation, at a young age, giving the child the ability to think outside the box with confidence.
