Engage your young child early on with cultural resources within their own community, instilling a lifelong love for art and self-expression. Early enrichment is all about two things: meaningful experiences and self-directed play. The pure (sometimes messy) joy that results from the process of experimentation with multisensory materials lays the foundation for critical problem-solving skills later in life. Plus, making art together with new friends is a great way to socialize. Please dress for the wonderful unexpected paint splatters and belly giggles.
