Children around the age of 2 to 6 are considered to be in the pre-schooling age. This is the time when basic information and skills are learned to prepare them for elementary school. At this age, kids are usually taught the alphabet and numbers and to make learning more fun for them, they often need to be exposed to crafts for kindergarten age.
There is a great variety of crafts for kindergarten a teacher, moderator or parent can use. These crafts are not limited to be done in school; most of which can also be done at home to help enrich the children's minds of their potential. Creativity is a key factor to successful crafts, children, especially in this age does not need a detailed set of instructions. Most of them work better when they are only given the general concept of what needs to be done and given the choice of how they wish to make it. Most people find it hard to believe that children can be critical thinkers; they actually are.
They tend to think about something - picture their desired results and begin putting it in to play. The more fun a child has, the more productive they become. What is most important to them is not really how well it stands out from the crowd but how well they feel about their work. This is why constant praise is needed for children; they strive dearly on the rewards system where even when they just hear the words "nice work" can turn them ecstatic with a sense of achievement. This is also the secret to prevent children from eventually having a feeling of inferiority as they grow up.
