The importance of creativity in the development of positive physical and mental health

Any ideas please?

Being creative can have an enormous effect on physical and mental health, when children dance with scarves they are having the chance to express themselves in a creative way. It may be a way of relaxing and unwinding after a busy morning concentrating on other activities. Moving to music is also a way of getting exercise and if done outside fresh air too!
For some EAL children and children with special needs it is a way of expressing themselves and joining in with other children. It should be an experience that is valued and recognised as an important part of the curriculum
