The main function of creativity is self- expression.
Through the creative process the child sinks into
her reservoir of prior knowledge and puts together
selected prior experiences into new patterns, new
ideas, and new products. Childrens creativity
reflects heir feelings, emotions, and imaginations.
In preschool children, this putting together of new
ideas and products based on past experiences is
expressed through the use of self-expressive
materials, through imaginative play, and through
creative thought. Through the creative arts,
music, and dramatic play, young children express
their ideas and feelings about themselves and the
world around them.
