Why is creativity important to a child’s development?
Every parent wants the best for their child. However, it can be overwhelming trying to understand all the advice when dealing with the development of your little ones. We’re here to make things easy for you by focusing on the one thing we know can make a difference to your child’s present and future: creativity.
Creativity in the everyday
At CocoRio, creativity isn't confined to a specific hour of the day; it's a way of life. More than just a music or art class, our creative nannies and mentors integrate creativity into your family’s everyday routine.
Engaging in creative activities has been proven to aid in children’s cognitive development. It can lead them to think outside the box, to be curious, innovative, and expressive. Creativity can make your children more likely to develop resilience, problem solving abilities, adaptability, and a lifelong love for learning.
What does it look like?
To infuse creativity in your everyday life, you will approach all situations with a creative mindset. You’ll be surprised to find that even the most mundane of tasks can become a fun, engaging game. For example, the walk home from school could be a sensory treasure hunt, setting the table could become an exciting relay race, cleaning the sides could become a ‘dirtiest wipe’ competition.
Our creative nannies and mentors combine their professional creative knowledge with their childcare experience to enhance ordinary experiences.
With CocoRio, your child's role-playing could include live music or DIY up-cycled costumes. Their piano practice might be filled with a jamming session that turns into their very own original song. Your child's dance routines may include pirouettes, popping and locking. The opportunities are endless.
