For kids who are just beginning to know the world with his bright and multicolored paints, but do not yet know how to use pencils and tassels, the most necessary - children's paints for drawing with their hands.
Little children classes with finger paints help develop tactile sensations, which ensures both brain development and nervous system. Also, in such classes, the motility of the hands is being developed and the color perception is formed. The occupation of kids with paints produces a soothing effect, improves mood.
The structural composition of such paints does not allow them to be broken, spread, their consistency allows various colors to mix well. High-quality finger paints are produced using only food painting components. They contain a lot of food sodium salt.
This is due to the fact that the kid, feeling the taste of paint once, will no longer repeat this experience.
The base of paints aqueous, consistency gel jelly-like. This allows paints not to spread, even if the jar falls and turn over, the paint does not fall out of it. Children's paints for drawing with hands dried quite slowly.
After classes in the paint there are not only palms and sheets of paper, but the whole young artist: clothes, hands and legs, face and body. As a rule, good finger paints for children quickly and without a trace are washed off, and the clothes are dismissed. Quality paints are considered safe to children's health, as there are no harmful substances in their composition.
Many people think that the baby under the age of the year is not capable of such a complex lesson as drawing. But it is at this age that the active and comprehensive development of children requires a variety of sensations and classes. Of course, to give the baby at this age there is no sense, the development of muscles and motility hands is not enough for such a difficult class, there is no ability to control the length of the line, draw any shapes. But you can already start working in color, try to transfer paints on paper using such finger paints.
To begin with, it will be enough even one jar of paint and a large sheet of paper. It is necessary to show the child how paint falls on paper, how can this be done with your fingers, the whole palm. When the baby is growing, you can move to several colors, mix them.
Such games with paints help the baby to develop attention and color perception, positively affect the development of shallow motility of the hands. In turn, this very much helps the development of speech in kids: cerebral centers who are responsible for movement and speech are in the immediate neighborhood, and interact with each other. Accordingly, the development of one center entails and the development of another portion of the brain.
As a rule, finger paints are sold in jars, which have a fairly narrow neck. Macked in the paint will be only one finger.
You can draw a whole palm if you fill the paint into flat plastic plates. Young creators really like to leave bright colored prints of their palm on a sheet of paper. Older children can use when classes with finger paints and pieces of shopping sponge, and tassels. In some sets of finger paints there are special stamps with various figures.
Another way to draw with finger paints - stencil. It can be made of cardboard or buy. The smaller the young artist, the easier it should be stencil.
When the baby becomes a little older, you can start mixing various colors. It is enough to do on a sheet of paper two or three blots from the paints of various colors and suggest the child to smear them. The obtained new colors and their combinations will be very pleasant to the kids.
Finger paints can be created by "works of artistic art" not only on sheets of paper and special coloring, but also on the glass surface, on the cardboard, even in the bathroom on the tile. Last lesson really like the kids.
Good finger paints are easily flushed from such surfaces. Various large trays, pieces of tarpaulin and plastic film, mirrors and other surfaces that are easily are suitable for this.
Another way to draw with finger paints, which is very loved by kids - it is a body. Since good finger paints do not contain harmful substances and safe for nursery, you can quite calmly allow the child to draw on the skin and legs, paint faces, turn yourself into an "Indian" or "cat".

Recipes for making finger paints at home.
It is known that tactile sensations (that is, the touch, sensations from touch) directly affect the development of the human nervous system, in particular the brain. Drawing is a vast experience in color perception, thin tactile sensations and true pleasure, this is nothing comparable! Most of us never draws, and by this we are very impoverished. In this article we will tell about finger paints for the smallest and about how to teach the baby to draw.
There are myths that the baby aged 6-7 months - "Mind" - this word cares on parental journals, reflecting a common opinion. Or here's another fact: many (even very good) fathers, believe that the child is up to a year - this is "a piece of pink flesh" and communication with him is impossible.
And this is not like this: children at this age, if they are actively engaged in their development and correctly, are completely contact and quite conscious people. How to develop a child and his creative abilities? It is useless to give a baby to the child: 3 years old it is useless at all, because the hands of the hands are still not well developed so that the child can consciously adjust the length of the lines and draw the figures of a certain shape.
What to do? There is a way out - Give your child finger paints and you give him the opportunity to express yourself.
Let it not draw specific items, it will carry his feelings on paper, for example, instead of Mom, he will draw his love to her, instead of the sea, shows the feelings of lightness and weightlessness.
From what age can you draw with your fingers?
W. the 5-month-old baby can already offer finger paints and a large sheet of paper (the more, the better). You can first give only 1 jar of paint - for example, yellow. Then already enter the rest of the colors. With a break in a few days (or months), show the baby, how to draw with your fingers, palm, how to mix paint.
The game contributes to the color, development of attention, hands, social adaptation. With the help of independent drawing, music, dancing, a child learns to shoot negative emotions, unspoken offensive, inexplicable alarms and fears.
In addition, finger paints develop fine motility, which affects not only the kid's ability to use their handles, but also contributes to the development of speech. How? The fact is that the center responsible for the movement is located in the cerebral cortex very close to the speech center, and when the first starts to work, it makes it worry and the second.
These paints can be drawn not only on paper, but also on cardboard, glass, even on the body. And also - what has a big plus for mothers - they are well wash off from any surfaces and easily dismissed. And most importantly - they are not delicious!
Please note that finger paints can be drawn with the baby when it is splashing in the bathroom - wash off the paint from the walls and from the child you can in a few minutes.
How to start drawing?
Put the baby on your knees, show him yourself how to draw. Map finger in paint and make several smears. Do it in a minute at least every day, and let this stage take a month. At some point, smear his own finger or palm paint and spend on paper with his hand. Do it so that the child for this actively watched! Hold his hand on paper, wiped her fingers - the half-minute drawing session is over. And let such classes - with minimal forward movement - occupy one and a half or two months, and no less. Do not rush anywhere! You must convey to the child. Mysterious principle: with hands on a white sheet can be transferred to the paint!

At the expense of "quietly," I, of course, got excited, because little children are big fidgets and simply will not be able to calmly sit in place, so in the process of drawing it is not possible to avoid traces of paints everywhere.
Several tips before starting drawing: Prepare a big watman, create more space around the child. Remove the carpets, set out away from the sofa so as not to sleep, put on the child and on yourself, what is not sorry to get sorry. I am glad that the paints are perfectly lazy.
