Elliott, Alison, Ed.
Early Childhood Australia
"Every Child" is Australia's premier early childhood publication, aimed at anyone involved in the care and education of children from birth to eight years--in particular child care professionals, teachers, child care students and the parents of young children. Published quarterly, it contains informative and entertaining articles on such issues as early childhood curriculum, ethics, health and professional development. Early childhood educators have long recognised the importance of creative activities and are passionate about promoting children's creativity. Most early childhood curricula have a strong focus on creative experiences--especially in music, movement and visual arts, because of their acknowledged role in enhancing children's intellectual, social and emotional development. This issue of "Every Child" continues to inform the debate on strengthening early childhood services by looking at developments and issues in the broad area of the arts. It focuses on the critical role of the visual arts, music, and movement in preschool and child care programs and especially in developing social and cognitive competencies and preparedness for school. Featured topics in this issue include: (1) Dramatic Play; (2) Art as Language; (3) The Magic of Storytelling; (4) Creative Expression with Hi-5; and (6) Out of the Box Festival of Early Childhood.
