Art feats
Many children begin their artistic feats with markers. Especially kids like flomasters for the school board, because they are large and leave thick sheets. But they have one drawback - they are alcohol. The child can take them to the mouth and taste, in addition, if he smears clothes, then she will not be washed. For the first classes you only grab four pens the most basic colors. After a while you can replace them with water-based flomasters, which are safe for both tissue and hands, they are washed off superfluously. Especially for kids it is better to choose markers thicker, because it is difficult to keep them thin. Perfect fit markers for multiple coloring.
Now a huge selection of pencils, but not all are suitable for children's creativity. Some of them can only get to garter plants. The bad thing is that before you buy you will not be allowed to try to draw with pencils to try them. You have to rely on your intuition. Try to avoid the pencils, on the packaging of which are depicted superheroes, cartoons or some characters. There are good pencils you will not find. Always pay attention to the integrity of the pencil case itself, if it has cracks or consists of two halves, then you will not get a good pencil. The tree should not be hard, so that it would be easy to repair the pencil.
Previously, pencils called "Cedar" were very valued. Maybe, remember, there was a golden seal on each pencil. They did not differ in the variety of colors, but they painted very brightly.
Now there are pencils, which are produced specifically for babies from 1 year old. They are bright, thick, and at the same time they are very strong. Very beautiful and interesting watercolor pencils for children. They have many shades.
Particular attention should be paid to wax crayons. Earlier we liked to sharpen them, so that the long shavings turned out, then mixed a few shavings and received new shades. If your child does not get to draw with pencils, then start with the wax crayons.
For example, chalks produced by TM "Gamma" are better not to take. They have dark colors and do not draw brightly, and to draw them, you need to tighten them. For a child this is not an option. Yes, and the lines are some kind of intermittent. But TM "Luch Premium" is much better. Crayons even on the exterior are very different - they are bright, smooth and glossy. And the child really likes drawing. Tsvetaar and juicy, and the trait is clear and beautiful without any effort.
The only minus of wax crayons is their fragility.
Now let's talk about paints. You can start drawing with finger paints. For example, the colors of the brand "Kalyaka Malyaka" are similar to jelly, so you can not draw anything with a finger. To paint something you need to rub the paint or spread out the surface. For the first work can and will do, but something serious you do not draw.
The safest and most popular paints for drawing are honey-colored water-colors. It is distinguished by its variety of colors, and the price is very affordable. There is this watercolor is very serious for the childrennot - in the album when drawing the color is very dull, not bright. But such paints are excellent to draw a divorce, as well as a good spritzorisovat sponge on wet paper.
In addition, honey watercolor dries very long. Do not forbid the child to draw with artistic watercolor. It has bright colors and a different consistency.
Gouache - this is a different paint for children, they are very bright and quickly dry. Instead of finger paints you can draw gouache, but at this moment you need to be near the baby so that he does not pull the handles into his mouth. You can buy for the first time paint, which will be a total of 6 colors. And in time you will increase the color gamut. When choosing not too lazy to look at least one of the jar from the package. Surely you know that over time gouache dries to draw it will not be so easy. Of course, it will not be easy to find liquid gouache, but for your child try to do it.
Because of the fact that the gouache is packed in jars, apply it with a large brush on the palette, and then let's draw the baby. Of course, in such an age, children are sloppy and forget to wash the brush, so make sure that the dark colors do not turn out of the beautiful colors.
Use albums for drawing on a spiral, they are more convenient than others. If you want to draw with colors, then select albums in which there will be a thick paper. For small crayons and pencils, you can take thin leaves. It is better to always have several albums in reserve. To prevent pages from sticking together when drawing dries, give the child another album.
Brushes choose to your taste, but while the child is small, it is better to choose their thicker. In addition, it is better to choose hard brushes, because in a small age, a natural soft brush for children is difficult.
The Young Sculptor
From a small age it is necessary and important to develop the sensory organs of the child. Color perception and vision can be developed with the help of drawing, and tactical sensitivity and fine motor skills can be developed by modeling.
Plasticine - this is the easiest and most accessible material for modeling. It is best to find a special soft plasticine for children, which need not be previously kneaded. With such a plasticine and you can begin to get acquainted with the modeling.
Choose brighter colors, but note that they do not stain your hands. And the most important thing in handicrafts and applications - that plasticine was plastic.
You can make and the dough for modeling. Here is the recipe: a glass of flour, 80 ml of water, half a cup of salt and a spoonful of vegetable oil. The dough can turn out to be foreign, but molding from it will be very interesting. You can play with molds for biscuits or muffins. It will be very fun.
The ready dough for modeling is better not to buy, even the photo shows that you can not assemble it completely, because it stratifies. Remember that the dough dries on air, so store it in a sealed packaging. Such games for children are very interesting, you can do all sorts of figurines and forms, but the dough itself is not very. Perhaps, some expensive variants of the test will show themselves much better. Try it, maybe something podbereektechestvennoe for the baby.
Sold also plasticine egg, which looks like a crumbly pea. He does not fit for modeling. His color is very strange, yes, and he smells awful - a solvent. In single-solid mass it is impossible to collect it, but the peas themselves adhere well to the surface, so it is better to use it for decoration, but not for modeling.
Look closely at the ready sets for modeling. There is no guarantee that there will be a quality item there.
Plain clay is much more fun, you can easily make toys or objects that your child likes, it will be fun and interesting to play.
Through trial and error, you will soon realize that it suits and will please your child.
