Trying to figure out the right time, the right words, the right program and the right environment to nurture a child's development while juggling work, home and carpools is daunting. 'Teaching Art to Children, The Marvegos Way' provides parents and art educators with a roadmap to follow in assisting children to be self-confident, self-directed and independent art-makers and to be and express who they are in their generation. This book shows the way through a series of anecdotes, pictures of students at work and coloured photographs of artwork to illustrate the results of this life-altering art program. The goal of The Marvegos is to increase each child's self-confidence as they discover and develop their own art-making style. Creativity is inspired. It cannot be taught. The Marvegos believes that entrusting children with making creative choices builds their confidence and engages their minds in ways other forms of learning do not. The Marvegos uses art-making to guide children to build awareness of things.
