Spend Quality Time with Your Child with These Arts and Crafts for ToddlersArts and Crafts for Toddlers: Drawing Activities One of the first skills that a toddler should learn is how to hold a writing utensil. By doing arts and crafts for toddlers that involve drawing activities, parents can teach their children that important lesson in a creative way. A fun activity to start with is foot tracing. For this activity, all that is needed is drawing paper and some crayons. The toddler should stand on a piece of paper, and the parent should then trace around the child's feet. The toddler will be watching how the parent holds the crayon, and will most likely want to emulate that. The parents should then let the toddler trace their feet, and see how the size of their feet compares with the size of their parent's feet. Arts and Crafts for Toddlers: Painting Activities When it comes to arts and crafts for toddlers, painting activities are always a favorite. One activity parents can do with their children is a rock painting activity. For this activity, the materials needed will be a shoebox with a lid, scissors, tempera paint, a rock, and paper (the paper can be either plain or construction paper. Begin by placing the shoebox on the piece of paper and cutting around it so that the paper is the same size as the bottom of the shoebox. Place the paper in the bottom of the shoebox. Place a small amount of paint into a dish, and then dip the rock into it. Then, place the rock into the shoebox, shut the lid, and shake the box up and down. This can be done over and over again with various colors of paint, thus leaving unique designs on the paper.
