Description
Most people accept that early years education should aim to develop children's creativity, but this raises a number of questions: What is creativity How does it relate to such concepts as imagination, self-expression and intelligence Why is it valuable--and in what ways Can creativity be taught And, if so, how And how can it be assessedIn this carefully-weighed, clearly written and scholarly study, Anna Craft answers these and related questions, providing in the process a comprehensive guide to creativity for all those who work with children in the early years.
