Drumstick painting was an exciting way for preschoolers at Lincoln Little Lakers Extended Care to explore the intersection of art and music. This activity included creativity, development of key motor skills, sensory exploration, appreciation for rhythm self-expression, and a deeper connection between sound and art.
