FATHERS DAY DIRECTED DRAWING

This past week we did a really fun and unique Preschool STEAM Activity that the we love!  I think I loved it too, just as much as they did, if not more!  It’s super super simple…VERY little prep and even though they are learning to follow directions through this Father’s Day activity they are still able to use their own creative abilities as little artists! (don’t miss our video at the bottom of this post!) Fathers Day Directed Drawing

When we made our Easter Directed Drawing Cross I was originally inspired from  Proud to be Primary with the Spring Butterfly Directed Drawing.  We just did our own twist and as she mentions directed drawing art activities help kids produce masterpieces and build confidence!Directed Drawing Instructions

How to Make a Directed Painting:

  1. Print off your FREE Printable Father’s Day Directed Drawing Sheet
  2. Using water colors direct your preschooler/s on what color to use and where.  i.e. use purple for all of the letter’s “H” etc.
  3. Spray paint your frame (I used a dollar tree certificate frame size: 8 1/2 x 11)
  4. Let your Directed Painting dry and place in frame.

Give as a gift to a Father in your life.directed drawing spring

Remember in the process of learning through STEAM Activities for preschoolers you want to get your young minds curious and talking.  As you REFLECT on the activity ask them questions during the activity. 

Some may ask how in the world can this be applied as a STEAM Activity for preschoolers?  If you really think past the idea of art this is such a foundational activity that all kids need to learn as it’s life skills.  Following directions is life skills which leads to skills for sequencing and coding later down the road.  Also the logic behind this activity leads to Math for later down the road.free directed drawing directed drawing activities

Of course Art is a given here…but you can take something so simple and apply a bit of direction to it which makes it a two dimensional learning for STEAM activities for kids. I really expound on the whole idea of STEAM over at : Everything You Need to Know about STEAM
