An Art Smock is a fantastic way to allow kids more freedom when
they are being creative. You certainly don't want to squash their
creative instincts by fretting over whether they are going to get a
little bit of creativity on their clothing. Whether painting, clay
modeling, or using markers, you can help keep their creativity on the
art project with an art smock.
In order to ensure a good fit, don't go for the child sized plastic versions that come in paint sets. They usually don't lay flat and they often aren't large enough to cover the area. While an old shirt of yours might seem like the perfect art smock, often this backfires as the sleeves and wildly oversized fabric runs amuck.
Using an art smock that is appropriately sized but reasonably tight can be tricky unless you buy one made for serious coverage for a child. You can use adult smocks on children provided that the material doesn't stray too far from their body and they won't trip on it. Nothing says mess like falling into your creativity.
Make the art smock fun for them. Dress it up or add artistic designs to personalize it just for them. This will not only encourage them to use it, but it will also encourage them to be proud of it and feel just like a real artist.
Children love to paint and create and giving them ample space to do that is healthy for their needs. Adding an art area that has floor coverage can be helpful to containing messes. You don't want the floor covered with creative footprints.
Washable products are a near must and of course, your art smock project will be a big hit when they realize that they can stay neat and clean to adult standards while having lots of great fun.
