Creative therapy in inclusive kindergarten surroundings

Dječja kreativnost može se poticati na različite načine i ona predstavlja važan segment rada u odgojno obrazovnom procesu. Svoju kreativnost djeca mogu razvijati likovnim i glazbenim izražavanjem, plesom i pokretom i poetskom terapijom. U vrtićima je većinom najveći naglasak stavljen na likovno izražavanje. Ovaj rad bavi se kreativnom terapijom, odnosno svim elementima umjetnosti. Govori o tome što je kreativna terapija uopće, zašto je važna i na koji način može potaknuti djecu rane i predškolske dobi da riješe svoje probleme putem ekspresije. Važno je naglasiti kako bi kreativnu terapiju trebalo koristiti češće u radu s djecom jer im omogućuje izražavanje emocija neverbalnom komunikacijom. Opće je poznato da se neverbalnom komunikacijom djeca puno lakše izražavaju.Children's creativity can be encouraged in different ways and it represents very important part of work in educational process.

It is well known that children can easier express themselves through non-verbal communication
