I often have parents ask for art kits and crafting supplies for children over the age of 4, but what about the preschoolers? Are they left out because they are too little?
Obviously there are some concerns when crafting with little ones - an 18 month old can't use scissors, while you aren't looking a 2 year old might decided that paint looks an awful lot like a smoothie, and small squares of paper and glue might make a toddler cry from frustration before they make a beautiful mosaic.
Luckily, Alex has a line of art products created specifically with little ones in mind called 'Little Hands.'
Alex 'Little Hands,' products are great because they take into consideration a toddlers' not-so-nimble hands and are created to be large, grippable, durable, and fun. They make great basic supplies for simple everyday projects, like the 'Farm Finger Crayons,' 'Stamp & Farm,' and 'Chunky Glue Sticks.' The finger crayons are one of my personal favorites because they are easy for for little ones to hold in the palm of their hand like a door knob rather than in pencil fashion like other jumbo crayons.
In addition to basic art supplies, a wide range of craft kits are also available from Alex 'Little Hands.' A few of our best sellers include 'Paper Bag Puppets,' 'Paper Plate Bugs,' and 'Yum Yum Crafty Fun.' These kits are great because they include all necessary supplies to create a specific project and focus on necessary skills like gluing, stamping, and drawing. 'My Giant Busy Box,' is great to have around for rainy Seattle days! It includes lots of supplies to create 16 different fun projects like paper bag puppets, tissue art pictures, dough animals and more.
