Creativity and Making in Early Childhood brings together practice and research insights on creativity, to offer new perspectives on what creativity is, how it manifests in early childhood education and what can be done to support it. Each chapter includes practitioners’ own experiences and looks within these observations and reflections to highlight key questions and challenges. Insights and perspectives are drawn from research in order to engage deeply with these challenges and to develop future practice in early childhood education. Particular focus is on creativity as physical 'making' processes. Topics covered include:- children’s developing identities- sharing and social interactions- how time, choice and physical environments influence young children’s creativity - instructions, resourcing and expectations of creativity in the early childhood settingPractical learning features guiding students through the book include: research spotlight sections introducing readers to key pieces of research, questions to aid reflection on experiences in relation to relevant theory, summaries and tasks for the reader designed to deepen thinking. This text is an excellent resource for undergraduate students in early childhood and education, as well as postgraduate students and practitioners who have returned to study.

In childhood research, children’s art-making has typically been viewed and understood through a lens of developmental psychology and the notion that children’s art-making progresses through a linear series of stages continues to dominate how we design and implement art-making experiences for young children. Postdevelopmental Approaches to Childhood Art brings together the work of theorists from around the world who have presented postdevelopmental approaches to childhood art, thereby playing a vital part in unsettling the dominance of the developmental paradigm and offering worked examples of alternative models. Drawing on sociocultural theory, Deleuzian philosophy, posthumanism and postmodernism each chapter offers a theoretical basis that challenges developmentalism, as well as an application of that theoretical basis. The contributors also consider what this shift in our perspective means for the design and implementation of art-making experiences for young children.

Through art children make sense of their experiences and the world around them. Drawing, painting, collage and modelling are open-ended and playful processes through which children engage in physical exploration, aesthetic decision-making, identity construction and social understanding. As digital technologies become increasingly prevalent in the lives of young children, there is a pressing need to understand how digital technologies shape important experiences in early childhood, including early childhood art. Mona Sakr shows the need to consider how particular dimensions of the art-making process are changed by the use of digital technologies and what can be done by parents, practitioners and designers to enable children to adopt playful and creative practices in their interactions with digital technologies. Incorporating different theoretical perspectives, including social semiotics and posthumanism, and drawing on various research studies, this book highlights how children engage with different facets of art-making with digital technologies including: remix and mash-up; distributed ownership; imagined audiences and changed sensory and social interactions.

"Bravo! This book brilliantly meets the moment." – Julie Nicholson, Mills College and Co-Director, Center for Equity in Early Childhood, USA"A lovely insightful exploration of leadership through a social justice lens." – Lord Victor Adebowale, UKAcross the world, organisations in early childhood education (ECE) face major organisational challenges, including staff recruitment, retention and wellbeing, in the context of sectoral fragmentation and under-investment. These issues impact negatively on the experience of children, staff, parents and the wider community. Social leadership is a new model of leadership that aims to address these challenges by refocusing leadership through a much stronger social justice lens and a community. It highlights the significance of warm and inclusive modes of leadership as a means of driving positive change.Based on in-depth interviews with renowned global leaders in ECE, this book provides an introduction to the six-element model of social leadership and shows how it can be developed and implemented by organisations, training bodies and educational institutions. Written in accessible language and illustrated with original international case studies the book begins a much-needed dialogue about how we can work from within ECE to overcome the workforce and sectoral hurdles we face.

This book argues that developmental approaches to observation in childhood pedagogy are limiting, that there is an urgent need to unsettle and reimagine observation, proposing new postdevelopmental theories and modes of inquiry for educators. Written by leading scholars based in Australia, Canada, Finland, New Zealand, the UK and the USA, the chapters consider observation as it is enacted in the home, nursery or classroom. Drawing on a range of theories including feminist new materialism, social semiotics, and sociocultural and multimodal approaches to early childhood the chapters cover a range of areas from early childhood art and observational literacy tools to intergenerational research, and using photography and video in observations.

This book deconstructs traditional developmentalist logic around children’s engagement with digital media where the focus is on what the digital ‘does to’ children’s bodies and brains. Rather than seeing children as vulnerable and passive recipients, the authors position children as co-creators and digital artists, embracing the richness of children’s digital play. The chapters cover a wide range of topics including indigenous digital art, digital drawing, learning to code, social media and artificial intelligence. The authors use a diverse range of theoretical perspectives, including posthumanism, feminist new materialism, social semiotics, socialcultural and multimodal approaches to childhood to generate new ways of seeing the relationship between children and the digital. The book includes chapters from academics and practitioners based in Australia, Canada, Sweden, the UK and the USA and a companion website showcasing innovative and interactive material, including visual essays and soundscapes.

Postdevelopmental Approaches to Babyhood critiques and challenges the existing developmentalist paradigm that constrains our understandings of contemporary babyhood. The discourse that surrounds babies tends to focus on to what extent they are carrying out the behaviours associated with a particular age and stage such as: Are they rolling over yet? Are they sitting up yet? Are they grabbing toys yet? This book explores what exists beyond these ‘yet’ questions and asks what it might mean to view babyhood through a postdevelopmentalist perspective with a focus on pedagogy, observation, relationships, the material environment, home and institutional contexts and baby rearing in diverse cultural contexts. The book includes chapters from researchers and practitioners based in Australia, Spain, Sweden, UAE, the UK and the USA, who draw on diverse theoretical and methodological approaches including multimodality and social semiotics, posthumanism and feminist new materialism, sociocultural approaches to learning, postdevelopmental psychology, psychoanalysis and more.

This is practical, research-informed, and reflective guide that supports those working with or training to work with babies under two. Divided into three sections: Environments, Interactions, and Relationships, it explores and introduces students and practitioners to everything from creative provocations, outdoor learning, and Forest School for babies to mindful interactions, joyful care routines, and co-regulation. The book also covers team dynamics, attachment, working with families, and inter-professional working. Rooted in contemporary early childhood research and informed by real-world practice, this book equips educators with the knowledge, tools, and inspiration to create emotionally secure, developmentally rich environments where babies—and those who care for them—can thrive. Each chapter includes research spotlights, bulleted introductions and summaries, lists key concepts and key ideas related to practice, reflective questions, and suggestions for further reading. This book honours the profound responsibility and joy of working with babies and aims to raise the status of the baby room as a space of learning, care, and inspiration. Additional support in the form of workshops and a weekly blog and podcast that complement the book can be found at www.babyrooms-inspiringleaders.co.uk.
