- Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of art integration on early childhood education. This manuscript will look at positive ways art is used to enhance early childhood education. Historically, art has been used to enhance learning for children in pre-kindergarten and kindergarten programs for many decades. Froebel, Rousseau, and Pestalozzi, who were pioneers in education, believed in the aesthetic values that the arts provide for children. There are many aspects included in The Arts, such as drama, theatre, movement, and creativity. Children need experiences in all of the art forms in order to develop properly.
