Activities for Kids that Combine Art and Science
My boys love art, and we typically do some sort of art project every single day. Some days it's as simple as pulling out the tempura paint, and other days it is more involved. My older two kids love projects that cause a reaction. My six year old especially loves to watch and learn how things work. He has the mind of a scientist. He is extremely observant and detail oriented. Most of his favorite art projects are those activities that combine art and science. Lately I've seen some amazing ideas for combining art and science on some of my favorite blogs, so I decided to put them all together in one place.

ReplyDeleteGreat! Art is an activity that can employ all the senses sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste depending on the activity. Children’s brain synapses fire away as they experiment and create, squishing paint between their fingers, mixing colors and materials, or drawing from imagination or what they see in front of them.
