9780133746617: Creative Expression and Play in Early Childhood

Synopsis

This text shows how the natural creative expression and play of children can be channelled to foster the learning and growth of each individual child. The book explores the nature, development and importance of children's play, suggesting many ways in which it may be fostered and encouraged by adults who work with young children. The aim of the book is to help readers design and implement self-expressive activities focusing on the process of creative expression, showing how to nurture that process, rather than providing a ready-made repertoire of activities and materials.

Présentation de l'éditeur

For courses in Early Childhood Play.

The latest edition of this widely accepted text shows how to foster learning and growth by integrating children's creativity and play into the curriculum. It provides novice and experienced early childhood teachers and caregivers with the roles, responsibilities, and strategies that lead to a more child-centered, play-based curriculum that nurtures children's creative expression in all of its forms. The authors treat play and creative expression as the cornerstones of a child-centered classroom through foundational chapters on creativity, play, and the arts. Unique to this text are three chapters on the traditional treatment of creativity and play—assessment, guidance, and families.
