By making art and participating in the creative process,  children will acquire the necessary knowledge, skills and tools to develop healthy identities and relationships, cope with difficult situations or new environments and develop a resilient mindset.

 

Creating artwork that engages and strengthens social and emotional muscles is a great way to make connections between feelings and creativity while learning about the self and others.

 

​

Participation in the creative process helps children: 

 

• appreciate who they are, their strengths and uniqueness

• transform impulses, stress, and emotions

• see and feel different perspectives 

• develop communication and cooperation skills

• practice making responsible decisions
