The Aesthetic Perceptions And Preferences Of Young Children For Visual Artworks, Jacqueline Kik
The Aesthetic Perceptions And Preferences Of Young Children For Visual Artworks, Jacqueline Kik
Theses : Honours
Literature dealing with aesthetics and young children indicates the importance of developing in children a degree of aesthetic sensitivity and an ability to respond aesthetically to both natural and man made objects.

Thus, provision of information that would assist art educators and Early Childhood teachers in the preparation of successful classroom experiences remains a priority in this area. The research study reported in this thesis investigated the aesthetic …
