Evaluate how valuing and respecting children's creativity removes barriers to active participation

Hi, you can evaluate by looking at what active participation is, what creativity is and how not being judgmental or discriminative opens up opportunities for children to take part xx

If you have a level 3 handbook there is good reading for active participation under the unit title CYP 3.7 you can search the amazon preview using 'active participation'.

As an example, consider how each child's creativity is unique. Interests maybe shared eg. cars, animals, paint, sand. But the way in which these toys and resources are used may well differ depending on the child, where the child is, how they're feeling, who is with them and what's being said through verbal and body language. If a child wishes to play with lorries in the sand and they're encouraged, their creativity can flourish as they might go on to build pathways, roads with signs and flags, parking areas with drive-in rules, tunnels ... If a setting feels this is a less appropriate way to express creativity and prefers to have children mark make with paint, dance, sing, cook, model & sculpt with clay, craft with glue and paper the child wanting sand & lorries will not have the opportunity to invent, design and see out their creative ideas in a way they currently finding most engaging.
