A book for parents, teachers and others who have an interest in children and their art.
Art plays a vital role in the education of children. A child's art is more than a picture or a sculpture; it conveys how he thinks, feels, and sees. With chapters on inter alia the meaning of art for education; art as a means of understanding growth; art in the elementary classroom; the beginnings of self-expression: the scribbling stage, 2-4 years; first representational attempts, 4-7 years; the schematic stage, 7-9 years; the dawning realism, 9-12 years; the importance of art in the secondary school; and the development of aesthetic awareness. With many black and white photographs and some colour photos.
