Art Therapy Cards for Children: Creative Prompts to Explore Feelings, Self Esteem, Relationships and More

This toolkit contains 22 brightly illustrated cards, each representing a different therapeutic art activity for children aged 4 - 11, and a booklet with detailed guidance for therapists. The activities are grouped by theme - feelings, relationships, the body, and imagination - and are relevant for a wide range of therapeutic settings. These 22 colorful cards and accompanying booklet provide creative ideas for art therapy with children aged 4 - 11. Each card gives a different prompt - from "draw yourself as a superhero" to "paint freely with your fingers" - and is brightly illustrated to help stimulate the child's imagination.Applicable for a wide range of group and individual therapeutic settings, the activities are grouped into four themes: feelings, relationships, the body, and imagination. They can help children to express themselves, gain confidence, understand and transform their behavior and emotions, and connect with their bodies. An accompanying booklet explains each prompt, its aims, the materials needed and potential benefits. It also flags activities that can be used to address specific issues, such as anxiety, trauma, and low self-esteem.
