Young Childrens Creative Thinking Summary

Young Childrens Creative Thinking by Hiroko Fumoto

The importance of promoting young childrens creative thinking, and the social relationships which support it, is now seen as a vital element of good early childhood practice. The authors push forward our understanding of what young childrens creative thinking is, and how it promotes young childrens well-being. By drawing on research evidence, they examine key issues from the perspectives of the child, the parents or carers, and early childhood practitioners and make links between theory and practice.

The book is divided into three key parts:

- creative thinking, social relationships and early childhood practice

- exploring perspectives in early childhood research

- experiences of young children, parents and practitioners

Chapters integrate practice, research and conceptual understanding to meet the needs of undergraduate and postgraduate students on any Early Childhood course.

Young Childrens Creative Thinking Reviews

Young Childrens Creative Thinking cleverly and creatively brings together an interplay of theory, research and practice to provide a fresh, yet penetrating perspective on young childrens creative thinking in the context of their relationships with others. An essential read for all those who truly value young childrens development!
- Dr Glenda Walsh, Principal Lecturer in Early Childhood Education, Stranmillis University College, Queens University Belfast

This book is a must for all those adults who engage daily with young children. The book encourages adults to consider their role in furthering childrens creativity by developing connections between childrens thinking and their social relationships. Considering current conceptualisations of creativity and the questions raised through the literature encourage all adults to work towards the promotion of childrens creative thinking
-Anne Robertson, Primary PGCE Programme Leader, Institute of Education

This is a brilliant book that really helps us to think about and analyse what it is that we mean by creative thinking, and that helps us to identify it when we see it
