Mongolia’s Gobi desert is striking in its beauty. Mongolia’s Gobi desert is striking in its beauty. 

The sweeping deep rose-gold sand dunes made a stunning subject for the kids to practise several techniques:

- explore blending (which they always enjoy),
- work on a range of values to create depth and atmospheric perspective, and 
- adding their Bactrian camel as a focus point

Fun fact: the sand dunes are nicknamed “Singing Sands” from the hum produced by the friction of the sand grains when the wind blows!

We’ve been creating and arranging flowers 💐 since We’ve been creating and arranging flowers 💐 since we were 4/5 years old! 😂

Preschool readiness activities can be super fun for the little kiddies.

They drew different types of lines and patterns with oil pastels, painted over them with watercolour to make the colours pop. 

This activity integrates several skills to boost their development: 
pre-writing skills, visual and spatial awareness, early geometry (numeracy like counting spots, comparing shapes and sizes), sensory experience, threading pipe cleaners, and confidence in carrying off the entire floral arrangement from start to finish! 

Our flowers 💐will bloom for a long, long time!

DIY art projects are the best!

Even our tiniest artists were game to eggs-ercise and show how to bunny 🐰 hop.

Our book inspiration for this art project is Lucy Our book inspiration for this art project is Lucy Cousins “A Good Place”. The kids learned about their environment, nature, and that insects 🦟 live in different places. 

Beetles 🪲 like dead wood, dragonflies like water, caterpillars 🐛 eat leaves to grow into butterflies 🦋.

What do you find at the park? Open your eyes and y What do you find at the park?
Open your eyes and you may see,
A frog 🐸 bathing like you and me!

Frogs love their pond to keep cool during the summer months. 

Our preschoolers sculpted their frog enjoying a soak in its own jacuzzi rock pool.  They kneaded white to blue until it was marbled like gentle waves; white to black for marbled pebbles.

Thanks DSS!

Happy Lunar New Year! Chinese scroll paintings or Happy Lunar New Year!

Chinese scroll paintings originated from bamboo and silk texts approximately 475 BC. In some East Asian high quality or historical scroll paintings, there can be more than 1 chop (seal), with subsequent owners, scholars, and collectors adding their own seal. 

For this project, the painting style focussed on expressive (few) strokes - Xieyi, rather than the Gongbi or meticulous and detailed style. 

The kids sketched horse figurines quickly, using charcoal to capture the boldness and energy of the fire horse. 

Wishing you all the energy, strength, and spirit to accomplish your goals in this Year of the Horse!

Our 3 and 4-year olds created their first pop up V Our 3 and 4-year olds created their first pop up Valentines 💌 card, with a zillion flying colourful hearts! 

Cut a coil from a piece of plastic or acetate. Glue each side of the coil to the inside of the card. Open the card to stretch the coil and glue as many paper hearts as desired. 
Voilà, flying hearts!

Valentine’s Day is a day we can encourage kids to Valentine’s Day is a day we can encourage kids to express their love 💓 and gratitude through their creativity. 

They examined the colour wheel/colour dial to see the relationships of secondary, tertiary/analogous colours and tints and apply it to their work. 

Labelling and writing feelings lead to greater self-awareness and enhances emotional vocabulary. 

Cheers to creating a world of colour one corner at a time!

Games like Noughts & Crosses (X and O, Tic Tac Toe Games like Noughts & Crosses (X and O, Tic Tac Toe) offer plenty of educational benefits! The preschoolers created their Pavlova-themed game. 

Math skills - for 3-year olds, placing 3 pieces in sequence in any direction; for 4-5 year olds, learning to plan their moves is critical thinking and problem solving

Social Interaction - taking turns teaches patience and playing against someone

Emotional learning for 5 year olds - if unable to complete the sequence, the feeling of losing is a learning moment 🙃.

Have you ever been to a floating market 🧺? Sellers Have you ever been to a floating market 🧺? Sellers pile their baskets high with all sorts of goods - fruits, veggies, flowers, street food, snacks, crafts, souvenirs, and more. 

The kids got crafty and creative, painting traditional Thai boats and whipping up their own mini goods to sell, like skewers, noodle dishes, fruits, and veggies. 

It was happily chaotic with so many ideas to add, just like a real market! 

With tons of canals and boats, it's no wonder riverside communities boomed before roads were built.

Thanks DSS!!

The kids learned about Indonesia’s ancient art of The kids learned about Indonesia’s ancient art of shadow puppetry (think 800 AD) called Wayang Kulit. It was popular for storytelling. The “dayang” or puppet master would sometimes do everything by himself: dramatisation of ALL the puppets, sing, and even the sound effects. 

Some shows which last for hours, use up to 500 hand painted puppets!

The kids created their own puppets, stories, and worked with each other to put on a show. 

Puppets art and childhood development involves:
- imagination & creativity
- literacy and communication
- emotional learning: role play, empathy 
- social skills: conversations and listening to others. 

The kids had a blast and really enjoyed a different kind of art!
