This session looks at establishing a space for child-led, process-focused creation and creativity. We’ll look at what to include in your creative space, setup suggestions, managing the mess, keeping everyone safe, and more. We’ll also dig in to why process-focused creation spaces like this are more child-friendly and learning-rich than product-focused alternatives.

Learn ideas for managing the creative space
