Course Description
Art is the gateway for children to express emotion and to develop their innate emotional wisdom. This course explores children’s Visual Narratives and their Imaginative Landscapes to appreciate, engage and ultimately participate in the nature of their emotions and their unfolding emotional wisdom. The lens of Holistic Child Development and Holistic Education sharpen our focus. Experiential learning, self-reflection, and community dialogue bring forth embodied learning.
