The Effect of Art Appreciation on the Development of Children's Creativity

In this investigation of the effect of art appreciation on children's creativity, art appreciation activities were provided for 20 five-year-old kindergarten children over an 8-week period. Data collected with the use of the General Creativity Test for Children(Chon, 1995) were analyzed by t-test, ANCOVA and regression. Analyses revealed that the experimental group with the art appreciation activities developed a higher level of creativity on all scales of creativity, including originality, fluency, flexibility, and imagination and in all areas of physical, linguistic, and diagrammatic creativity. Boys were more creative than girls in imagination, originality and physical creativity.
