However, many adults struggle to comprehend the intricate processes and motivations behind young children's scribbles, smears, and endless lines of art. Why is it so challenging to inspire older children to engage in drawing or painting?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book aims to shed light on the vast realm of creativity, revealing that it extends far beyond the mere act of drawing or painting something picturesque. It is a profound avenue for understanding the world through the hands and learning through art, play, and science. Drawing inspiration from the Reggio Emilia approach (among others), this book emphasizes the importance of the process rather than the final outcome. It advocates for supporting children in their exploration of materials and mark-making, challenging the traditional notion of an adult demonstrating the correct way. Instead, the authors highlight the power of an inspiring environment and open-ended resources to ignite children's intrinsic motivation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithin the pages of this book, readers will discover an abundance of inexpensive possibilities that require minimal preparation. These activities foster a creative flow, enabling children to express themselves in unique and imaginative ways. The captivating full-color photographs in the English edition add to the appeal, providing inspiration, a sustainable and feasible vision, and practical tools for facilitating creative processes in schools, childcare centers, and homes. Whether you are a teacher, caregiver, or parent, this book is an essential resource for anyone seeking to help children develop into self-aware, creative, and responsible individuals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 470g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032523828\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sabine Plamper,Annet Weterings","offers":[{"title":"Unspecified","offer_id":44842357457146,"sku":"9781032523828","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1701453965977_book.jpg?v=1701689626","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/how-children-learn-and-create-using-art-play-and-science-understanding-through-your-hands-9781032523828","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
