Teaching Daycare Lesson Plans on Jean-Michel Basquiat helps children see that art can be messy, expressive, and personal. His bold style gives preschoolers permission to explore freely and make art their own. The perfect home daycare lesson plan subject!

Introducing children to famous artists is a wonderful way to inspire creativity, broaden cultural awareness, and encourage self-expression. Jean-Michel Basquiat, a groundbreaking artist from New York City, created paintings full of color, movement, and imagination. His artwork often included crowns, symbols, and words that told stories about his thoughts and feelings.

I always like to start each lesson plan with a book. The Life of Basquait was what I used to get started and develop the concepts for our study from there.
