Acquiring motor skills at an early age
By participating in creating art and craft, children become familiar with
complex movements of hands and fingers very early in life. This
strengthens their forearms and fingers and helps them handle even
tiny objects with ease.
Gripping a pencil, holding a paintbrush, colouring with a crayon, are all
the fine motor skills that children acquire through a hands-on approach
prevalent and practiced in an art class.

Developing a more expressive language
In addition to getting their hands messy by participating in visual arts
program for preschoolers,children get an opportunity to expand their
vocabulary by learning new words that relate to colours, shapes and
interacting with peers and teachers alike.
By having a wider vocabulary to access, children can be more
descriptive and are able to use new words when interacting with others
and while discussing and presenting their ideas.

Helping take better decisions
Several studies make it apparent that visual arts program for
preschoolers helps strengthen critical-thinking and sharpens problem-
solving skills in young children. The process of art by its very nature
tends to open up several avenues for children where their decision
making skills will be tested and will be found very useful.
For instance, when creating their art and they suddenly discover that
they have to decide, make a choice out of the many options that are
available to them. Making decisions is a critical skill,and will be of big
help when the time comes to make a real life choice in real time.

Make new connections in the brain
Introducing visual arts in early childhood education is fun and
entertaining. It helps children learn in a multi-disciplinary and multi-
sensorial way. As a matter of fact, art makes children and adult feel
nice inside. But why so?
Because art involves all of the senses — sight, sound, touch, taste and
smell — there is a lot happening to our brain when we create art. The
synapses in the brain of small children begin to fire away at random as
they experience and react to new situations that immerse their senses
and further stimulates their creativity.
6. Conclusion:
Art inspires children to think different, be innovative, and devise new ways to
learn about interesting things found in the real world. This is the kind of
learning experiences Abrakadadoodle creates. Igniting the minds of children
to discover, imagine, play and learn like never before.
