Best Brushes for Preschoolers

how to paint_brushes

Young preschoolers may wish to have chubby brushes or Crayola So Big brush. Cheap is okay as the experience is more about the body movement than the stroke on the paper.

Keep on hand a variety of brushes. Allow your child to experiment how to make different marks with a variety of sizes, rollers, or diy brushes.

Fingers – Preschoolers love to explore through the sense of touch. Finger painting allows your child the sensory art experience to feel the texture of the paint and paper.
