Exploring Art in Early Childhood

This session is designed to engage educators in the process of creativity with children. We will discuss different art forms, mediums, and materials and how these can be used and applied in an early childhood setting. We will be emphasising the importance of process over product. This session is heavily influenced by the Reggio Emilia approach to fostering creativity and as such we will be engaging in some art making of our own! In addition we will discuss some of the ideas of colour therapy and how this can be integrated in to art with young children. Resource kit provided.
