First Art : Art Experiences for Toddlers and Twos

Summary: Author Comments, by MaryAnn Faubion Kohl
Review: We've needed a book for the really little guys for a long long time, a book that encourages exploration and experimentation, discovery, and the experience of jumping into art for the first time. I worked with two toddler experts, Renee Ramsey and Dana Bowman, and we put this together based on experience, trial and error, and kids' favorites. I especially like the hints for success with toddlers and twos that we've given you. Also included are little true stories about real kids doing these projects, and things that happened that were funny, unexpected, or affirming. I really like this book. You don't have to be good at art or an expert to use it with kids. You just need to have basic supplies around, like crayons and water and tape and paper, and you're on your way. Oh yes, and a little kid or two....
