The benefits of a Creative space in Special Education

Creativity can be expressed in a variety of ways. A lot can be said about the benefits of providing opportunities for special and unique individuals who face challenges on a daily basis, for example, developmental, behaviour or sensory challenges. I love this image of my 6year old 'creating' an artwork he has worked on as part of an art program at his Special Education School. The program provides a space for children to be part of and express themselves positively.
