Curriculum Areas In Early Childhood

Creative components are incorporated into a well-structured curriculum to promote children's self-expression, problem-solving, and exploration (Craft, 2013). This methodical approach guarantees that teaching strategies, learning activities, and environmental design all incorporate creativity.
