Art is an integral part of the development of young children. It promotes creative expression, fine motor development, problem solving and even early math skills!
Also, First Things First will provide resource kits for families and books for children while supplies last.
For Artsy Thursday, children will experiment with color blending while creating a spring flower or butterfly.
