Offering practical guidance on encouraging creativity in early childhood settings, this much-needed book highlights the importance of the arts and creativity for children's learning, critical thinking, social interaction and self-regulation.

The book considers the impact of creativity on early brain development and discusses how to choose the right arts or creative approach for your children. Principles for creative curriculums, teaching, assessments and environments are provided and each chapter includes a 'practitioner toolkit' element, with reflective questions and practical strategies for implementing the learning from the chapter into daily practice.

Ruth Churchill Dower is the Director of Earlyarts, which she established in 2002. She is also a trainer, consultant and speaker and has written a number of articles on the topic of creativity in the early years, including for The Guardian. She lives in Holmfirth, UK.
