Preschool Art Activities

Looking for art ideas for Preschoolers? This book gives you that and more!

"This book truly transformed MY ability as a parent to nurture the natural gifts of our daughter. What happened was a natural integration of observation and art into our everyday life. Effortless, Easy, Incredible Preschool Art." - Regina C.  theharlowhearth.com

"As a former Early Childhood Educator, I love this book and its approach to art. I have always been about the process, not the product..." - Yvonne B. thelifewebuild.com

“My children absolutely love the projects and I love introducing Master artworks to them. It really fits our Charlotte Mason-style preschool and enriches our lives so much! “ Jeanie, Simple Living Mama

The Way They SEE It - A Book for Every Parent About the Art Children Make

Teach preschool art with twenty-six lessons exploring art masters plus creative arts activities for preschoolers to explore proper handling of simple art tools: scissors, paste, tape, pencil, brush, and art materials: watercolor, markers, finger paint and more! 

This book is for Mommy, Daddy, and any adult who desires to give a child of three, four, or five an early experience with the processes of making art. It shows caring adults the stages of artistic development that children go through and discusses how to nurture awareness of the world and bring it to life in a child. It offers information on the first steps your three, four, or five-year-old will take when pursuing creativity as it is expressed through art.

Each lesson begins with information for the parent on the nature of children’s artistic development that will help in understanding their art. Parents learn methods of teaching using real world examples that work with the purposes children have for making art. This book will suggest ways to turn art times into real educational experiences, resulting in enthusiastic artists who are ready to learn more, see more, and create more art. 

Used regularly, this book will expand the scope and vision of what is possible for young artists. Art appreciation lessons feature Master works by artists as diverse as Hokusai, Hicks, and O'Keeffe. Each lesson is followed by a project, giving preschoolers an early experience with the processes of making art. The First Skills section offers practical advice on correct handling of scissors, drawing tools, adhesives and paint with ten additional project ideas. 

Thirty-six creative art activities for preschoolers engage the curiosity of young minds. It is not a coloring book. It is not an activity book. It begins at the true beginning of any artistic production; seeing and exploring the world.

  • Includes 26 famous artists works by a variety of artists from different times and places
  • a First Skills section, which shows proper handling of art tools
  • 36 creative art activities for preschoolers 
  • 26 Grown Up Talks where you'll learn just what to expect as you better understand the approaches young children use when making art.
