My son is at the stage when his explorative skills are greatly exercised. According to parenting and child development books, this is the perfect stage when I can start introducing him to worthwhile creative art activities. It is great as there are so many different art activities available. Aside from painting and coloring, one easy and interesting activity he might enjoy is beginning his ceramic art education. He can start with the usual Play-Doh but there are also some other great products younger kids can use such as Cloud Clay that comes in great colors, is AP certified non-toxic material,and is fun to squeeze, shape, and mold. I found this great product at AMACO/Brent and I can’t wait to order some. It is great for kids because it doesn’t stick to their tiny fingers. The website also has classroom ceramics art lesson plans that are often used in classrooms that have ceramics arts as part of their art program. You can order any of the materials for these lessons online at Amaco.com. The site also has a great variety of different clays, glazes, ceramic pottery kiln and other pottery equipment, as well as their world known Brents potter’s wheels.
Aside from the wide selection of pottery materials, various resource materials about kids and crafts can also be researched for free online at AMACO/Brent. As I have mentioned there are art lesson plans as well as instructional books and dvd’s for artists of all different ability levels from beginners to the seasoned pros. Simply put, AMACO/Brent is the place to go to find art activities and supplies that are fun for everyone and a safe way for your child to begin to explore his artistic talents.
