LIVE: Promoting Creativity as a Tool for Self-Regulation

Promoting Creativity as a Tool for Sensory Regulation

Self-regulation is our ability to understand and control feelings and actions in relation to what is happening within and around us. It has been deemed more critical than academic performance in the determination of independent work and living skills. This unique, 90-minute webinar introduces tools to identify what is most motivating and inspiring to each child and how to incorporate creativity such as art, writing, music, and movement to promote self-awareness and self-control. If you love out-of-the-box intervention ideas, this one’s for you!

Learning Outcomes

1. Identify three ways in which creative play and activity can be used to intentionally promote self-control.
2. List ways to decrease frustration with challenging activities.
3. State how verbalization can be used as an anchor for creative thought and action.
