Self Isolation and Lock-down 2020
Parents and
Children: Art Activities
Creativity encourages neural
development, motor skills and problem solving abilities that extend
to other key skills as reading, writing, maths and science. Art
enables children to process the world about to express emotions
creatively and enables critical sensory input. It is fun, engaging
and stimulates the child's self development, as well as therapeutic
and relaxing for the child and parent.
Self-isolation and
lock-down for parents with children can be demanding. It is ideal to
plan the day ahead with routines to occupy your children and make it
interactive and shared experience for them and yourself.
