Have you ever made a scrapbook, photo album, or a “Me Book” for your personal pleasure? Do you think children might enjoy these activities? Creating a simple “Me Book” can be a meaningful and enjoyable project even for children who are at the earliest scribble stage. Trying too hard to have children make “cute” projects and guiding them to make their art look like the teacher’s sample can undermine the integrity of the child’s artistic expressions. As you watch the video, notice the strategies and materials that the teacher used for the activity and think about the benefits children can derive from this type of activity.
In your initial response, respond to the following questions:
In the early part of this video, name the developmental stage the child using crayons is in. Explain your choice.
Based on your observation of the children as they make their “Me Books,” what developmental level(s) do the children represent? Use specific examples to explain your choice(s).
Describe why the scribbling stage is important for development of creativity in children.
List the materials and strategies that the teacher uses for this activity.
Do the following sensorimotor activity then describe any difficulty you might have felt in overcoming your adult need for seeing as well as doing.
Sensorimotor Activity: Close both eyes and do a crayon scribbling for a full minute to experience the pure motor pleasure of scribbling to help appreciate the sensorimotor feelings of a young child. Notice how it feels to move your hands and fingers for movement sake alone.

HDF 404: Children and Hospitalization Research Article Review
The theories and techniques for providing psychosocial care to children in health care are constantly evolving. Researchers seek to justify these theories with valid data, and health care professionals seek to provide high quality care that meets the needs of pediatric patients. Specialists who work with children in health care settings use the term “evidence-based practice” to answer the question: “Why do we do what we do?” Evidence-based practice involves three components: 1) the best research evidence, 2) clinical expertise, and 3) patient values. Health care professionals must continuously seek answers and implement research findings into their daily work with children.
