The Creative Journal for Children A Guide for Parents, Teachers and Counselors Paperback – October 7, 1989

i use this for creative writing and journaling for 6 yr old kids, and sometimes kids that are a little older. (also use it for art) for regular public school kids, about 25% of the activities in this books are useful, but it does give you a lot of ideas for other activities. Spinning Inward (i think by Maureen Murdoch, not sure) is the main book i use for journaling activities. i have all of the creative journal books (adults & teens) and i think this one is the best for group activities. the book for teens is great, but a little too deep for group, probably meant to be used a lone. there are not a lot of books like this out there, but this one is my second favorite, w/ spinning inward being my first.

Her best creative journal. While it's for children, the author made the instructions and purposes of the exercises clear and easy to understand. We bought the children's, teens, and adult versions of this book. The children's version was the one everyone used.

interesting prompts for journaling with elementary aged kids

Just what I was looking for in this type of book. I will turn to it often.

Makes life easy. No need to reinvent the wheel. It is being utilized in the hospital setting.

it's a little pricey for the information that you get, which to me is common sense.

The exercises in drawing and writing are very interesting and simple. Even my 4-year girl can be easy to follow. Thru my girl's artworks, wordings and creativity I can learn and understand her world. I am really appreciate I find a vehicle to sharing my girl's feelings, experiences and dreams.

This is going to be a very useful resource for us to use with children who are struggling to control their behaviour

This book focused on collage, a bit like law of attraction… was expecting it to be larger in size, with quality pictures and paper. Texture of paper, cheap brown, scratchy, aging badly.
