Synopsis:

Art and Creative Development for Young Children, 6th Edition, has been completely revised to include an in-depth discussion of technology to aid teachers in understanding the role technology can play in children's visual art appreciation and production. Guidelines for establishing an inclusive art program in classrooms for young children are included for early childhood professionals. Activities and recipes make the text a valuable resource for in-service teachers.

Review: 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 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 a I like the open-ended activities designed for toddlers, preschoolers, kindergartners and school-age children.
