Art Experiences Reflecting the EYLF

In Early Childhood Edication it is imperative to provide children with a variety of art experiences, with the importance being on the process not the end result.  Art engages children's senses in open-ended play and assists with the development of their sense of identity, wellbeing, community, learning and communication.  Art can offer a lifetime of benefits, enriching children's lives for years to come.

In this book you are proviced with 25 learning experiences that focus on different aspects of visual arts.  We have also provided four recipes of commonly used art supplies, so that the children can contribute to making resources for their learning environment.

Each experience offers:

Suggested resources

A written description of the experience
