Colorful Artsy Thursday!

April 6, 2023

Artsy Thursday was so much colorful fun! Our Small Wonders had handfuls of fun showing us how art can be a part of every day! Keeping in the spirit of Work Together Wednesday, Orange and Pink rooms created colorful group rainbows using their hand prints. The kids loved getting only a little bit messy!

All of these activities help build awareness, strength, and dexterity of the hand muscles which will be used one day for writing letters, numbers, and more! Another example of how “for children, play is serious learning”- Mr. Rogers.
