Collage is the art of cutting and pasting papers, fabrics, and other media onto paper or canvas. To enrich students’ experience in pictorial composition through the handling of new materials, we, at Presidium, planned a collage-making activity on the topic ‘Winter Season.’ Making a collage helps a child build Fine Motor Skills. It’s also a fun way to encourage a child's awareness of colour and texture. And if we talk with our child about his collage it helps his language development too. Children's divergent thinking was challenged when they had to decide what to use and how best to use the material to express themselves. We witnessed the usage of various skills in the collages made by our kids.
