Children's creativity shines when they experiment with paints, brushes, crayons, collage materials, clay, and other art materials. With each opportunity to draw, paint, or color, children become more skilled in creating detailed, realistic artwork and have the ability to practice their fine motor skills.

Many skills are experienced-based and can be introduced simultaneously. Categories labeled are in the developmentally appropriate sequential order to create a scope and sequence for skill mastery. It is suggested that skills be introduced in this order.
