Drawing & Painting Classes for Kids in Mountain View

What they’ll learn: Education in art such as drawing and painting has a great deal of benefits across the ages. Children especially can gain a great deal from expressing themselves through art as their communication skills are still developing. When creative thinking like visual art is introduced early in life, it can help kids relate to the world around them. Artistic expressions such as painting and sculpting help develop fine motor skills.
Ages: 2+
Time Commitment: 1 hour per week
Cost: $20 per class

Kids art classes usually begin around age 2 with basic instruction and simple tools like fingers, sponges and thick brushes. More advanced instruction begins around 5 years of age where they begin to explore different mediums, tools and styles.
