What a wonderful way to introduce art to children
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
If you would like your children to appreciate art and learn about art, this is an easy way to introduce art to children as young as three. There are some good reasons to introduce children to a variety of art forms and art styles. I believe that it is important for children to be exposed to a wide variety of experiences. Unfortunately, we live close to only one small museum. By using this book and the companion postcards books (bought seperately), I have been able to introduce my young son to many different pictures that he would not have seen otherwise. This book is the companion book to postcard sized reproductions. This book explains how to introduce children to art without turning them off. There are several levels and different 'lessons' in each level. However, these are NON Stress 'lessons' (for lack of a better word). My son, who is two, enjoys looking at the pictures and talking about them. He has also enjoyed matching the pictures and I look forward to continuing this with him.
Very Good for it's purpose- Easy and NON stressful.

If you are interested in introducing your young child to art, this whole series is very good. Based on post card sized reproductions that kids can touch and manipulate, this book takes the parents/pre/elementary teacher through a series of activities that will help both adult and child alike learn about art. This book is the companion to the postcard reproductions. It explains why you should do an activity and how to do each activity. It is simple and straightforward. My only thought is that if you do this and you buy the books of postcard reproductions that go along with this program, you are into the whole thing for about 80 bucks. However, you do not need to buy all the books of postcards.
