Offering a wide variety of brushes allows young artists to explore the many mark making possibilities when painting. These two girls have experimented with several brushes as well as their hands to see the results of their gestures and actions on paper.
Using these different brushes to make different marks yourself is a good way to encourage exploration. Children are always observing their environment. This close observation is key to their development. Modeling with different art tools and materials is a great way to support this learning. You don't have to be an expert to model artistic behaviors! Experimenting with the materials together can lead to many exciting discoveries!
