Art and Creative Development for Young Children
"This text is well rounded and appropriate for the creative arts course at our college. My reason for choosing it is it is very visual, summarizes the content well and touches more deeply on holistic education. For the most part, I am really impressed with the variety of activities as well as the list of materials developed to inspire the creative process." - Susan M. Baxter, M Ed., El Camino Community College, California"I think this edition shows great enlightenment in all sections, including Creativity, Young Children as Artist, Art & Aesthetics, Providing Art Experiences, and Roles and Strategies. The layout of the chapters are appropriate for instruction and this text is user friendly. There is not anything missing that comes to my attention." - Audrey W. Beard, Ed.D., Jackson State University, Georgia" I like the open-ended activities designed for toddlers, preschoolers, kindergartners and school-age children. I like that the activities (called "hint") are ideas, not step-by-step directions or a "recipe" approach to teaching art." - Nancy W. Wiltz, Ph.D., Towson University, Maryland
