  • Creative Art Activities for Preschoolers: Describes ten creative art activities suitable for preschoolers, each with simple instructions and materials needed.

Here’s some of our art activities that are perfect for preschoolers:

1. Learn about mixing colors. Perfect for a hot day. Freeze some cubes of paint (in 2 or 3 of the primary colors) and take it outside in the
sun to melt as they paint. When they run together see what colors it makes!
2. Copy a masterpiece. Print out a masterpiece (such as Starry Night) and set it beside them to try to draw themselves. It’s quite
impressive what they’ll find in the piece of art as they study it themselves to draw.
3. Amp up tape resist art. Instead of just chunks of tape around on a piece of paper, or you doing it, have them tear a piece of tape to
create a picture! Add details to the finished tape resist art.
4. Add sensory to art. We used sand, but really anything can be used in its place. Flour, salt, sugar, dirt, rice, tissue paper.
5. Try pulling string to create art. This one takes a little patience, understanding and coordination. But nothing preschoolers can’t handle in
art activities. Its kind of magical to see what designs will happen!
6. Rainbow sponge art. Yes, toddlers can do this. But preschoolers can take the care it needs to actually make this a rainbow!
7. Add special touches around the house. Preschoolers are just getting into drawing. So design or draw a wrapping for everyday items
such as a tissue box. What else can your little preschoolers spruce up with these art activities?
8. Shave crayons and melt them! It’s great for fine motor skills to make the crayon shavings. And the designs they make can be so cool
(ahem, learn a little about color mixing in the process)!
9. Use multiple painting techniques together to create a piece of art. Preschoolers will have to follow directions to make it right. Along with
having the patience to put it all together. But it’s really simple!
10. Tie dye something together! A t-shirt, a pillowcase, a sheet! They’ll love a special touch to wear or use that they can say they made! Try
different tie-dye effects too. It’s all about the rubber-bands!
