Learning Experience
Monday
Children get excited when given crayons and papers. While some of them are attentive,
others do what they want to and draw random stuff on the appear. However, some of them are
able to draw straight lines with crayons and with the help of the teacher.
Tuesday
Most children are able to make different shapes with crayons while some struggle to use
the tracer and make the circles and triangles. The teacher had to guide them through the activity
and was able to make them complete the activity.
Wednesday
The finger-painting class is a bit messy, but children are very excited to dip their fingers
in the tub of pain ant draw different shapes and patterns on the drawing sheet. While some
children keep on using the same colors, others are more experimental and use different colors.
These activities might be a bit messy but allow the children to feel new textures like wet, sticky,

SOCIOLOGY 6
or slimy.
Thursday
Children are more or less able to create prints with the cur fruits and vegetables given to
them. Some follow the directions given by the teacher carefully and use different fruits,
vegetables, and colors to create prints and designs.
Friday
There are few children who are able to express their drawing adventure but are
successful in drawing things they see around them like flowers, clouds, trees, and more. The key
thing here is to motivate the child to use his imagination and create something to express
himself.
Creative art activities are very productive for children as they allow a progressive
development in all areas, their physical and mental. When children hold crayons and pencils or
use their hands, the art activity encourages their eye-hand coordination and muscle development
as well as fine motor control. When children work together and learn the names of different
colors through creative art activities, it promotes their social and cognitive development. These
creative art activities allow the children to express themselves, relax, and feel successful.
