The habit of transforming the human energy into creativity must be taught to children in early ages, through the art education. The aim of the research, presented with this point of view as a poster, is to determine the two dimensional creative behavior changes of a group of children during art education given in their early childhood and is to observe for a year. In the beginning, this research is started with nineteen preschool children with ages of four and five, and their creative works are observed. In the first phase, the fine arts school is introduced to them and they are asked to paint pictures of what they saw. Observing the changes in children’s behaviour ensured the continuation of the study. In the second phase, which is the subject of this article, mainly five children is chosen. But helping to acquire the creative behaviour changes in the works of all children are aimed. Learning from a model, which is applied in the first phase in Uludag University Faculty of Education, Fine Arts Education Department, Arts and Craft Education, has been, a year later, applied in “Tofas Bursa Museum of Anatolian Cars”. The museum and some art concepts have been introduced. Children have painted pictures and have been asked some questions. It has been observed that, children have not painted about the art school they saw, but they have painted what they want. The aim of the research, in the first phase, is to produce active learning by giving some clues to children; in the second phase, to observe the behaviour changes in their creativities and what they have painted. In addition, children aged four have been interested in what they feel instead of what they see.
