Using simple text and children's art, Art Parts introduces children to 6 elements of art. Designed for children between the ages of 3 and 8, it includes blank pages after each element where children can experiment with the concepts of line, color, shape, texture, space, and emotion. These blank pages allow children to personalize the book while making it a keepsake to treasure, and a wonderful gift for that special child in your life. It would, also, be a great asset to any classroom to add to the art center with materials that allow children to investigate the concepts contained throughout Art Parts. In addition, Art Parts includes an activities page for parents and teachers to expand on concepts in the book. These activities include suggestions for special projects, as well as things parents and teachers can do during everyday routines.
