ART AND CREATIVE WRITING CONTESTS

Contests Objectives

Children are the masters of the moment—they love how it feels when they smear paint on paper, how it looks when they sprinkle glitter, and even the soft sound of a brush makes as it crosses the page. Unlike older kids and adults, most toddlers and preschoolers aren’t self-conscious about what they’re doing or focused on creating a finished product. That can be hard for parents to accept. But letting go—and allowing kids to enjoy the process of creation—can reap big rewards. Children will be better off in the long run, if they’re allowed just to be in the moment and express themselves.
