Art

- They have practiced fine motor skills by drawing and coloring the character.
- They have learned about colors and how to mix them to create different shades.
- They have experimented with different shapes and lines to create their character's features.
As a way to continue developing their creativity in art, encourage the child to create a story or background for their made-up character. They can write a short description or even create a mini comic strip involving their character. This will further enhance their storytelling abilities and help them explore different art mediums.
