Editorial Review: Product Description: This book provides an overview of current philosophies, theories and practices in early childhood arts education, with many engaging examples of how children learn and how adults can enhance this learning. The Arts, Young Children, and Learning presents how children learn through the arts and how adults play an important role in assisting this learning. This book is not a "cookbook" of activities. The purpose is to delve deeper into the topics and to provide the reader with both a theoretical and philosophical understanding of the importance of the arts in young children's lives, and the knowledge and confidence to apply this understanding in a variety of learning contexts. The book covers a range of highly relevant topics in an engaging manner with many practical examples. It focuses on important principles that draw on current research and international examples of "best" practices. For anyone interested in the education of young children, teachers, curriculum developers and parents!
