      Book Overview

      The authors skillfully combine a philosophical and pragmatic approach, exploring the cognitive processes behind children's painting. To deepen children's understanding, the book suggests meaningful tasks for each phase of imagery and offers methods for encouraging children to discuss the concepts involved in their work. Focusing on children from 1-1/2 to 11, the authors include in this second edition: a more detailed discussion about painting in the preschool; an expanded description of techniques effective in motivating five- and six-year-olds; and a stronger emphasis on painting as a more central, rather than occasional, activity in all classrooms.

      Superb guide to children's developmental painting process

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      This book guides the reader through the process of children learning to paint with incredible insight into the child's thought process. Nancy was a mentor of mine at Boston University over twenty years ago, and I have used her ideas in every classroom I have taught in. Her insight into children and the painting process will surely answer many questions about the hows and whys of children's painting. I highly recommend...
