This month in our preschool, we’re studying art. It’s not my forte nor my son’s strength, but we’re really enjoying getting creative and trying new things. This project turned into a variety of learning activities. Rainbows for St. Patrick’s Day, color sorting, fine motor skills. We even got a lot of sensory input from the hole punch.

Supplies:
Construction Paper
Instructions:
Use the circle punch to create many many many colorful circles. (This was such a terrific exercise for Loopy. He has Sensory Processing Disorder which has resulted in a lot of fine and gross motor difficulties. It improves his bilateral coordination and core strength.)
Next, take a large sheet of white paper. Squeeze the glue out in an arch shape. Have your child sort the colors and place them end to end along the arch.
It took a lot of time and patience, but I was so impressed with Loopy’s rainbow art and he was SO proud!
