Activity:

In today's activity, we're going to prompt free drawing. Free drawing while listening to music is a form of expressive art therapy that can be beneficial for kids. Here are some benefits:

• Free drawing allows children to tap into their imagination and creativity, and express themselves in a nonverbal way.
• The act of drawing can be therapeutic and can help children to process and cope with difficult emotions and experiences.
• Listening to music while drawing can help to create a relaxed and calming atmosphere, which can promote a sense of well-being and reduce stress.
• Free drawing can also help children to improve their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
• It allows children to have fun and express themselves in a safe and non-judgmental environment.
• It can be an enjoyable and beneficial activity for children to engage in, as it allows them to express themselves and de-stress.
