In Wonder Art Workshop, educator and educational development expert Sally Haughey shares her approach to hands-on, play-based learning with parents, teachers, and other facilitators, offering 25 activities that let your child take the lead in developing their own sense of intrinsic motivation to imagine, experiment, and discover.

The author's wonder-based approach reflects and synthesizes several child-centered educational movements, including Reggio Emilia, Waldorf, and Montessori.

Become a catalyst for cultivating your child’s curious mind through these steps and activities, which start with art and apply to other subjects, including science and literacy:

Take stock for your wonder journey with helpful guidance on collecting materials, preparing a space, and nurturing the process while allowing children to make independent choices.
Harness curiosity through a collection of sensory-based activities that use a variety of loose parts and other creative materials for open-ended play.
Encourage experimentation by unleashing your child’s inner alchemist with “potion trays” they can use to mix color, create fizzing concoctions, make play dough, and more.
Unlock literacy play with activities that inspire children to imagine and create their own characters, structures, and landscapes.

Give your children the precious gifts of wonder and curiosity and help them become the best they can be with Wonder Art Workshop.

We used this book as a resource while presenting on process art vs. product art. I loved it, there are so many great ideas. This book was thought provoking on how we do art with children.

The Wonder Art Workshop is sheer brilliance. It is written with clarity and easy to implement tools that can be adapted for home, classroom or studio use. With stunning photography and beautiful vignettes of children experiencing the wonder of process and play based art, not only does this text truly honor the child as the artist he or she naturally is, it also reignites that sense of wonder and creative flow in the guiding adult!

A great book to inspire the development of an art atelier

Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2019

Bought this book to inspire both our early years and lower elementary teachers and they have loved it! The book is practical and theoretical- giving you ideas of what to do but also why you might do it. It is also beautiful.

ART, not crafts!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 15, 2022

I love this approach. Let children be free to imagine and create, rather than having them make identical paper plate crafts.
