Book Review – Art Workshop For Children

October 26, 2016 by Shellie Wilson

9781631591433

 

Art Workshop For Children by Barbara Rucci RRP$ 22.99 check out Art Lab

This book goes against most of the Craftgossip topics. We like to give you gossip about step by step tutorials and adult setup activity stations, where as this book promotes “Original Thinking”.  The Purpose of this book is to teach the adult how to allow children to be creative and free with Process art.  Great books for any Art teachers and of course Teachers doing Art.

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 guides who provide questions, encourage deep thinking, and help spark an excitement for discovery. 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.(Source)
