Implementing Child-Led Art in Your Classroom

Art is a critical component to children’s well-being, as it delves and supports all 6 developmental domains. As educators, art experiences should be offered to our children throughout the majority of the day, in order to explore, create, develop and engage in self expression, as the independent moment strikes.

Join us for this experimental, tangible, messy, fun and team building workshop as we experience and remember how art is able to move us, bring us joy, spark wonder and creativity, while fostering independence. 

During this workshop we will explore: 

• How art is very subjective to each individual
• The essential differences of educator-led crafts vs child-led art experiences
• Supporting the Child as a Mighty Learner and Citizen
• Developing an authentic and accessible creation station in your classroom
• Understanding that it’s about the journey and not the product
• Family education regarding child-led art and its components
• With a variety of mediums in unexpected ways
