Creating a space for art in your child care program will provide many opportunities for young children to learn new skills. In the Art Space even the youngest child can learn to appreciate the beautiful designs, and colors that are found in art, Children will begin to develop new language that describes art, as well as explore new art processes, mediums, and tools. 
The art space provides many opportunities for children to improve their motor, sensory, language, social emotional, and cognitive development skills as they learn to create.

The Dramatic Play area provides many opportunities for children to practice "Life Skills". Children learn about every day life in this space. They learn by exploring the items adults use on a daily basis, learn about empathy and nurturing while caring for dolls, and learn about the world around them by pretending to be community helpers, and exploring the roles of these important people during dress-Up play.
