Product Description

This book draws on the author's experience of promoting young children's creativity and imagination in a variety of settings over the last twenty years. The settings include home and centre based care and this book draws on the practical experience of adults living and working with children in these settings. The aim of the book is to use real life examples of young children's development and their growing competence to show the richness of their creativity and imagination. Children's development across a wide range of creative and imaginative experiences are outlined and ways of planning and assessing children's progress are discussed. Insights from research are used to inform practice. This book is for all who take delight in the richness of young children's learning and want to find ways to extend their practice by supporting and promoting learning in a practical way.

5.0 out of 5 stars My little Creative Bible!!, 16 May 2009
I am currently studying a BA (Hons) In early childhood education and this book has given me a real insight into creativity. It is easy to read and well set out. The book covers adult roles, the importance of peers in creativity, the importance of creativity in our society and many other subjects are discussed. I recommend this book for those who have a real interest in childrens creative and imaginative play. The book has really helped me think about extending childrens creativity through real life scenarios and reflecting on my role when working with children. A real delight to read!
