Art supplies for preschoolers doesn't have to be complicated. In fact, it shouldn't be complicated or expensive but have variety. Here are some of the basics that are always in my preschool art area: 1. Paper -- white, black and colored paper -- I like construction paper best for this age group because it is tougher and works well for little hands 2. Crayons, Markers, Paint 3. Age-appropriate scissors 4. Glue and tape
