Finger Painting

A child finger painting

Finger painting is a creative activity that stimulates the child’s senses. This sensorial experience provides many benefits to the engaged child. For instance, it encourages mindfulness and self-regulation, enhances fine motor skills through hand and wrist movements, and inspires observation skills through cause and effect when mixing colours. Moreover, with a teacher’s assistance, the child’s cognitive and language development is enriched when learning and talking about the colours, textures, temperature, etc.
