We Are Creative Too
Children with disabilities are creative too. Differently, abled children often find original solutions to problems. The classroom can benefit from their creativity and imagination. It's important for children to feel capable of making a difference. Whether it's through make-believe acting, writing a story, a song, or creating works of art. Using the precious tools of imagination, creativity and play, all children can play a role in being successful. Encouraging children to believe they can change the world fosters purpose and self-confidence. This belief also encourages creativity, innovation, and kindness, helping them become compassionate and resilient adults who can contribute positively to society.
Building friendships between able-bodied and differently-abled children using creativity fosters kindness, understanding, and acceptance. It promotes inclusivity and breaks down stereotypes, creating a more inclusive and supportive society. These friendships also provide emotional support, reducing loneliness and depression, and improving overall well-being for both groups of children.
Using creative methods Kind at Heart would like able-bodied children to have fun practising basic BSL and Braille. Young ones can learn to communicate effectively with deaf or blind children by mastering the fundamentals of BSL (British Sign Language) and Braille. Additionally, learning basic BSL and Braille equips children with valuable skills for inclusive education settings. These skills can also be used later in life when working with deaf or blind individuals.
