Process art means the making is the purpose. There is no model to match, no finished example to measure against, and no correct outcome. The child does the work, and whatever emerges is the work.  Spin art belongs to this category almost by definition, because the result is outside anyone's control. A salad spinner for art might sound silly, but it can be one of the most engaging process art tools! Use the link in our bio to read more about how @everydaywitheandj set up a process art activity using paint, a salad spinner and simple pieces of card stock.

When we create spaces for children to do things themselves, we’re not just giving them independence. By allowing children the freedom to make choices, get involved and participate in everyday moments, we are building confidence and showing them that their ideas matter, their abilities matter and their contributions matter. A Kitchen Helper encourages children to safely get involved in the everyday experiences that interest them and explore with support. Activities like cooking together, cleaning together and eating at the countertop become opportunities for development and meaningful play! #guidecraft #earlychildhood #kitchenhelper #toddlertower

We are always so happy to see our products in action! From imaginative pretend play, to sensory-rich water play, to open-ended science experiments and so much more, our community made the most of their summers keeping the Mud Kitchen at the heart of everyday play. We’re so excited to see how the change of season inspires even more play with the Mud Kitchen.
