Creative movement is an ideal way to help young children develop critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. Most young children are, by nature, extremely physical. They delight in exploring the world with their bodies and expressing their ideas and feelings through movement. During creative movement experiences, children learn to think before they act, pay attention to detail, and consider differences between experiences. This article discusses how teachers can scaffold movement experiences that encourage children to generate and express themselves with rich verbal and body language by using National Dance Education Organization's (NDEO) dance standards, open-ended questions, and interesting literature.
