DESCRIPTION:
The book's unique child-led approach provides a framework for cultivating creative thinking and encourages the wonder that comes when children are allowed to freely explore the creative process and their materials. Art Workshop for Children is not just another book of straightforward art projects. As children work through these open-ended workshops, adults are guided on how to be guides who provide questions, encourage deep thinking, and help spark an excitement for discovery. Explore basic materials and workshops that use minimal supplies, and then gradually add new materials to fill the art cabinets as well as new skills and more complex workshops.Interspersed throughout are sidebar essays that introduce perspectives on mess-making, imperfection, the role of adult, collaborative art, and thoughts on the Reggio Emilia method, a self-guided teaching philosophy. These pieces underscore the value of art-making with children, and support the parent/teacher/care-giver on how to successfully lead, question, and navigate their children through the workshops to result in the fullest experiences.

Everyone will enjoy this book!. "Easy to follow, unique art activities to raise creative thinkers!" according to M.Schiller. This book is an inspiring resource for any parent or caregiver, even if you have no background in art! It’s filled with easy to follow, unique art activities that honor the child’s creative process. I especially love the essays by both Rucci and McKenna that offer valuable insights on how to raise creative thinkers and why this is an important skill for all children. A truly wonderful book!. "Full of gorgeous inspirational photos!" according to Craig Louis Citro. Flipping through these colorful pages is sure to put a smile on anyone's face. I love all the inspiration on these pages -- and especially love how simple the required materials are. Most things can be done with paper, items from your recycling, and paint!
