I loved craft projects as a child and still do. As a mom and a homeschooler, I believe my child should have a basic knowledge of various art media and elements. For kindergarten and first grade, I used Five in a Row's art appreciation lessons to develop some familiarity with art. Yet, I thought my son needed some hands-on experience.
Then, I discovered "How to Teach Art to Children." This book contains simple, not-too-messy projects that don't deter my little perfectionist, complete with a materials list, step-by-step instructions, and color photo illustrations.
The book contains two parts: Learning About the Elements of Art and Using the Elements of Art. Vocabulary words are listed in the introduction. The bulk of the text covers the seven elements of art: line, shape, color, value, texture, form, and space. Each element section begins with a definition and provides several projects to demonstrate the element.
For instance, the color section starts with the primary colors and then moves on to the secondary colors, contrasting colors, warm and cool colors, and a study of the color wheel. Some projects take a more scientific bent, such as mixing paints. This appealed to my scientist son.
Part Two, Using the Elements of Art, offers 24 projects based on the work of famous artists, presented in order of difficulty. Each project gives a short description of an artist with literature references, lists of materials and art elements used, what to talk about, and step-by-step instructions.
Most of the artists listed worked in the 19th and 20th centuries. Some projects come from different time periods and cultures, such as ancient Egypt or the Ashanti Peoples of Ghana, Africa. The media used include items such as paper, paint, clay, fabric, stamps, and papier-mache. All projects are kid-friendly, and no offensive pictures appear in this text. You may need to screen some of the suggested books, however, since art books sometimes contain nudity. ( )
