In everyday life, art therapy is used
to help kids with mental health, learning disabilities, emotional problems, or
illness. It also helps kids deal with loss or grief. While they may not fully
understand the scope of a situation, art will allow them to express what they
do understand, opening the door for conversation.
Art
therapy can also be used to help children achieve self-awareness. They have the
opportunity to express their feeling and perceptions about the world. Through
art therapy, kids can help get a better understanding of their strengths,
weaknesses, interests, or concerns.
Next time a
charge appears frustrated, or is having a difficult time expressing emotions,
try using pictures or figures that resemble feelings. Studies show that art
therapy is helpful for children of all ages and races.
