We finished our Dinosaur eggs!
The children were very excited about it.
Once we finished our eggs, we started on another abstract project.
I love looking at abstract art with young children for many reasons:
- Abstract art takes the pressure of the need to make a picture of something. Abstract art is more about the shapes and colors and the feelings it expresses, not about the accurate portrayal of a subject.
- Abstract art also encourages discussion about colors, shapes, and lines which are concepts young children are learning.
- Abstract art is interpreted different by everyone who sees it. The language, conversations, and ideas expressed are rich and interesting.
- Abstract art is something young children can make.
