Art is good for the soul

In our modern, busy world of technology, it is important to take some time out to explore and develop our creativity and participate in activities that support mindfulness and relaxation.

Reggio Emilia talks about the child having 100 languages, ways of thinking, marvelling, of a 100 worlds to discover, invent and dream. This goes for us all and art is a way to explore different ways to express ourselves and discover the creativity that lies within us all.

Art supports all areas of development for children besides creativity. Confidence, concentration and social skills can be enhanced, expressive language, fine motor, problem solving, mathematical and scientific thinking developed.
