You're on the right track with your responses. :thumbup:

For question 1 (0-2 years), I'll probably add finger painting instead. Some children at this stage may find it hard to grasp and hold a paint brush without assistance. Finger Painting is easier. You can add different coloured paints for the children to mix to create secondary colours. For example: red and yellow create orange.

For question 3 I'd also add dress ups in home corner from different cultures, cooking experiences, playing games from different cultures.

Hope this helps,
