The new topic is art in kindergarten
Art in the kindergarten is really a great topic because the children can develop freely here and really enjoy working on this project.
- You can set up a room with the children that is really just for painting. There you can provide different paints, paper, painting smocks, brushes and water containers.
- In this room you can hang prints of artists and discuss the artists with the children.
- Sometimes there is an art exhibition in town. If you have the opportunity, visit this exhibition with the children.
- For the topic of art in kindergarten, you can work on given topics with the children. The topics are freely selectable.
- Show the children different painting techniques.
- Don’t push the children to paint particularly beautifully or cleanly. Each child paints as their abilities allow.
- Art should be fun and bring joy to children in kindergarten.
- Encourage each child to create and praise them for their work of art.
- Pictures with not too liquid color can be hung on a line to save space.
- Any picture that is created by a child in kindergarten as part of this project should also be discussed with the child.
- If you are planning a small art exhibition in the kindergarten, you can have great pictures painted on small canvases. After the exhibition, the little artists can of course all take their paintings home with them.
