Creating Inspiring Environments

Course Description: Aesthetically pleasing early childhood environments benefit children, educators, and families. Creating this special environment requires more than adding “things” to the space, it involves considering your space, the function of the space, and the needs and interests of those that are in that space. In this training, participants will consider what they already have in their classroom or program and how to enrich this space using the Seven Principles of Design as a guide. We will explore inspiring spaces, the Seven Principles of Design, and cultivating inspiring children’s spaces, and discuss how to make sure these spaces meet licensing regulations and keep children safe. Bring your creativity, an open mind, and ideas to share!
