Toddler & Pre-School Kids Art Playgroup in Williamstown Library

About

Toddler and pre-school Art Playgroup in the Inner West of Melbourne.

• Suits kids 1-5 years old (younger siblings welcome and free).

What will we be doing?

There will be a few different activities happening all at the same time, so the kids can walk around, move between things, change what they are doing, and choose something they are interested in.

We will be doing creative and arty things:

• drawing, scribbling and stamping their hearts out
• painting on the butchers paper on the tables
• colouring in sheets on clipboards that they can walk around with
• using my window crayons to draw on the windows
• and having lots of fun!

These sessions are more about learning to love art, than creating any final masterpiece. The kids are always encouraged to express themselves however they like and be creative, so if they are more interested in mixing all the coloured paint together and putting handprints on the paper than anything else, it's more than fine! They will still enjoy themselves. :)

Why should I come?

• It's lots of fun.
• Helps your child be creative and learn to love art.
• An opportunity to do something different.
• Meet new people – both you and your child.
• Helps build fine motor skills.
• Helps with pre-writing skills.
• Can help teach kids that mess is ok, and making mistakes is ok too.
• You don't have to think of an art activity to do at home.
• You don't have to clean up afterwards!

This is also a great way to give your kids the experience of painting and making lots of mess, if you the parent are a bit…
