Expressive arts and design involves enabling children to explore and play with a wide range of media and materials, as well as providing opportunities and encouragement for sharing their thoughts, ideas and feelings through a variety of activities in art, music, movement, dance, role-play, and design and technology.

Creative experiences are about…

• Exploring a wide range of stimulating resources
• Having time to explore and experiment with ideas, materials and activities
• Being confident to try new experiences
• Realising tools can be used for a purpose
• Exploring how sounds are made
• Being able to express themselves through dance, drama, music making
• Engaging in imaginative role play such as being the 'nurse, vet or shopkeeper'...
