Beschreibung

Art Workshop for Children is not just another book of straightforward art projects. The book's unique child-led approach provides a framework for cultivating creative thinking and encourages the wonder that comes when children are allowed to freely explore the creative process and their materials.

As children work through these open-ended workshops, adults are guided on how to be facilitators who provide questions, encourage deep thinking, and help spark an excitement for discovery.

Children explore basic materials and workshops that use minimal supplies, and then gradually add new materials to fill the art cabinets as well as new skills and more complex workshops. Most workshops are suitable to preschool-aged children, and each contains ideas for explorations and new twists to engage older or more experienced artists.

Interspersed throughout are sidebar essays that introduce perspectives on mess-making, imperfection, the role of adult, collaborative art, and thoughts on the Reggio Emilia method, a self-guided teaching philosophy.

These pieces underscore the value of art-making with children, and support the parent/teacher/care-giver on how to successfully lead, question, and navigate their children through the workshops to result in the fullest experiences.

Über den Autor
Bar Rucci is passionate about two things: kids and art. She is a professional graphic designer, art teacher, postcard-lover, and mom to three spirited kids. A graduate of Skidmore College, Bar was an art major with an early childhood minor. After college she began a 10-year journey of finding her inner entrepreneur. She painted murals, designed textiles, created a children's clothing line, and finally taught herself graphic design. It was this last adventure that became her calling, allowing her to stay home and raise her wild and creative offspring. In 2012, Bar created Art Bar Blog, a place where she explores her love of child-led art experiences, cultivates her interests in making-by-hand, and shares simple tips and ideas to bring creativity into other's lives. Two years later, Bar began teaching art to four-year olds because her own kids were getting too big and too busy to make art with their mom. A self-proclaimed "late bloomer," Bar is a strong new visionary in the world of kid' art. She is planning a line of art kits and has many plans in the works for [...] lives with her husband, kids, and shedding labradoodle in Connecticut. [...]
