Unleash the power of creativity for young children and yourself. Follow the authors of Cultivating Creativity in Young Children on a journey of curiosity as they unlock the secrets of creativity, deepening understanding of the what of creativity, its connections to child development, and how it shapes and is shaped by the people, communities, and world around us. Creativity is so critical to the way humans grow and learn that it should be at the center and not the periphery of early childhood education. When you nurture creativity and original ideas in children, you are providing them with everything they need for cognitive and social emotional learning. Featuring seven Big Ideas about creativity, case studies, and the authors' personal stories, the book is a call to action to change how we raise, nurture, and teach our children to honor their innate creativity.
