Play is the central, universally significant activity of childhood.
Self-directed play in which adults have a supporting rather than
directing role is critical to the development and well-being of
children. Yet as children have their days and nights increasingly
scripted and planned for them, opportunities for play have
disappeared over the last half century, especially in
schools.ArtBreak's innovation lies in its creative framework.
Former school counselor, current professor of counseling, and
practicing artist Katherine Ziff developed and tested the program
over five years, integrating theory and practice from art therapy,
counseling, and child-centered education. The result is a
choice-based, guided play experience based on the developmental and
restorative possibilities of art making.A detailed how-to guide,
this book is the flexible and accessible toolbox that teachers,
parents, and counselors need to facilitate relaxing, art-based play
that allows children to freely explore, plan, and pursue their own
interests with adult support. Easy to implement, ArtBreak can be
added to the regular routines of classroom, home, therapy office,
or other community setting at whatever scale suits space, time, and
budget. No art training is required, only a willingness to embark
on a play journey with children.
