Art EXPRESSING FEELINGS THROUGH ART

�During a personal trauma or national crisis, it is important for teachers and parents to give children the tools and opportunities to express themselves. �Like adults, children feel the need to talk through their fears and concerns. �They look to us to give them stability in an often unstable world. Children feel cared for when the normal routine continues.

When a crisis occurs, look for the following signs in children: �Expression of a broad range of emotions �Physical illness (particularly stomach aches) �Problems sleeping (waking up, nightmares) �Separation anxiety when away from parents �Increased attachment to adults �Irritability or expressions of anger

Using Art as a Means of Therapy �Children usually aren’t able to cope with traumatic events. � Young children can’t express or discuss their thoughts and feelings because of their limited vocabularies and language skills. �One way for teachers and parents to encourage children to talk about what they have seen, heard, or experienced is to give them art materials. By drawing, children are able to communicate without using words.

Children process what they learn through play �Drawing helps control the situation. Once an idea or thought is drawn, it becomes concrete. Children can manipulate it, hang it on a wall, stomp it, or tear it up.

Interpreting Art �Once children have put their "thoughts" on paper, it is up to a teacher or parent to interpret what has been said. When children have experienced a traumatic event, signs of such an experience often surface in their art.
