Positive-focused visual art has been shown to have numerous benefits for children's wellbeing, both in terms of their mental and emotional health. Here are a few ways in which positive-focused visual art can improve the wellbeing of children:
Promotes creativity and self-expression: Positive-focused visual art allows children to express themselves creatively and explore their imagination in a safe and supportive environment. This can help them develop a sense of self and a greater understanding of their emotions.
Reduces stress and anxiety: Creating positive-focused visual art can be a therapeutic experience for children, helping them to relax and reduce their stress and anxiety levels.
Boosts self-esteem and confidence: Through creating positive-focused visual art, children can develop a sense of accomplishment and pride in their work, which can help to boost their self-esteem and confidence.
Enhances cognitive skills: Creating positive-focused visual art can also enhance children's cognitive skills, such as problem-solving, critical thinking, and spatial awareness.
Every child should have access to art and positive messages because it can provide them with a range of benefits that can contribute to their overall wellbeing. For example, positive-focused visual art can help to develop children's emotional intelligence, improve their social skills, and foster a sense of community and connection with others. Access to art and positive messages is especially important for children who may not have access to other forms of creative expression, such as music or dance. By providing children with access to positive-focused visual art, we can help to ensure that they have the tools they need to develop into healthy, well-rounded individuals who are capable of thriving in all areas of their lives.
We must act swiftly, uniquely and creatively to protect our communities.
