CocoRio Creativity: Cultivating Confidence Through Creativity (Copy)
Creativity is the foundation for growth. Traditional childcare focuses on developing fundamentals in your child, but CocoRio reimagines this. We infuse creativity, joy and fun into every meaningful moment and experience. CocoRio transforms childcare, creating a movement that celebrates and instils imagination and connection.
The Power of Creativity in Development
Creativity is more than just a fun pastime. Its benefits are never-ending; from allowing children to explore their individuality and grow, to imaginatively engaging with the world. But the benefits don’t stop there...
The importance of creativity is backed by research, and creative activities are linked to:
Enhanced problem-solving skills
Improved emotional regulation
Higher academic achievement
Improved self-confidence and resilience
According to studies by the American Psychological Association(APA), there is significant research supporting the idea that regular engagement in the arts can lead to improved academic performance and enhanced social behaviour in students.
CocoRio’s Magic Recipe
Our unwavering commitment to creativity in childcare sets us apart. Here’s how we integrate imagination, fun and creativity into everyday childcare.
Music: Rhythm, Expression and Cognitive Growth
Music is a universal language; it bridges connections and forms bonds. By tapping into both emotional and intellectual parts of the brain, it creatively promotes self-expression.
Example: CocoRio’s creative nannies incorporate music in their childcare in many different ways, for example, working with a child to create a song and learning how to perform it. This helps the child improve their confidence and find their voice.
Art: Imagination Meets Mindfulness
Arts and crafts create a space for hands-on learning, which is a staple in CocoRio’s approach. It allows children to explore the world through colour, texture and form. Emotionally, it also allows children to process their feelings in a safe and constructive way.
Example: A project our creative nannies may do with your child could include a crafts project based on emotions, creating artwork based on their feelings. This allows the children to explore their inner emotions through art and creativity.
Movement: Building Confidence Through Play
Movement at CocoRio is a principle of our childcare; this can take form as dance, theatre, sports or much more. Movement empowers children to inhabit roles, see new perspectives and speak up.
Example: The creative nannies may create a game incorporating theatre by engaging in improve drama. This allows the children to overcome their shyness and build confidence within themselves whilst also expressing their thoughts and feelings.
