Creative Lesson Introduction: Art Exploration for Reception / Kindergarten

Title: A Magical Art Adventure!


Lesson Goal:

Today, we are going to embark on a magical adventure into the world of art! We will explore colours, shapes, and textures that make art so special and fun.

Introduction (5 minutes)

Gather the Children in a Circle

Start by inviting all the children to sit in a circle. Use a soft, engaging tone to draw their attention.

Magic Box Surprise

Introduce a "Magic Art Box" (a decorated cardboard box, perhaps covered in shiny paper or painted with bright colours). Let the children know that inside the box are exciting art supplies that will help us create our very own masterpieces today!

The Story of the Magic Art Box

Tell a Short Story:

“Once upon a time in a land not so far away, there was a magical artist who could create the most beautiful things with just a flick of her brush. One day, she discovered a box filled with vibrant colours, bumpy textures, and sparkling shapes. With the help of her friends, she brought this magic to life and painted the world full of happiness and joy!”

Exciting Questions

Encourage the children to share their thoughts and ideas, fostering a sense of excitement and participation.

    Introduce each item, letting the children touch and explore them. Ask questions like:

    • “What colours do you see?”
    • “How does this texture feel?”

Transition to Art Activity

As you engage the children with the supplies, transition by saying: “Now that we have discovered our magical art materials, are you ready to create your very own beautiful masterpiece? Let’s get started!”
