 The
Art Train
The Art Train is a new art and craft
group for under 5's in Amersham and Chalfont St Giles. It's primary aim is
to get pre-schoolers to have fun with tactile things such as paint, glue,
textiles, sand, pasta, water etc. It's other aims are to have fun,
strengthen finger and hand muscles needed when learning to write (at
school), to generate confidence and self belief and freedom of expression
within a semi-structured environment.
After an initial story or song to
establish the theme of the week we will all make something together. Then
the children are free to choose what they would like to do next. There will
always be a wet and dry tactile area, painting easels, further sticking
activities and play dough amongst many things going on.
We meet 10-11am on Wednesdays in St
John's Methodist Hall, Woodside Road in Amersham and 10-11am Thursdays in
the Reading Room in Chalfont St Giles.
