My Project

Embedding art and craft into the academic curriculum can bring out the shades of various creative future opportunities and new fields of the profession for students. It can open the doors to new work cultures and unveil new potentials of market, creative potential.

Art and craft play a very vital role in shaping the personality of students.

Since most arts and crafts activities consist of moving fingers and hands, they help in developing fine motor skills. Simple actions like holding a paintbrush and coloring with pencils help strengthen muscles and improve their control.

These items I am asking for will be to create many different musical instruments to use in our daily activities. The popsicle sticks are used to make harmonicas, beats and rhythms, and in centers.
