Crayola Create and Play helps kids practice and improve the following skills:

Focus: Getting started and then maintaining attention and effort to tasks. 

Creating a piece of art can take time, which is why it’s a great way for younger children to practice their focusing skills. All of the art options in this app allow children to use a template or a blank page to create their own unique works of art. When they are complete, they can be placed in the app’s museum to look at any time. For younger children, starting with one piece of art and then working up to longer sessions of drawing or painting can be a good way to build up their focusing skills. 

Flexibility: Trying something new. 

Crayola Create and Play features several different activities for children, ranging from coloring book pages to pet decoration to educational activities. This app is a perfect opportunity to practice trying something new with your child. Because the activities are all interesting, colorful, and feature engaging music, trying something new can be fun and educational. For users who struggle with flexibility, trying just one new activity a day can be a good way to build up these skills without being too overwhelming.
