These fundamental rights and abilities are essential not only for their personal growth but also for building a healthy, open, and innovative society.\r\n\r\nChildren express their thoughts, emotions, and ideas through words, art, play, and other creative outlets. When children are encouraged to freely explore and share their perspectives, they develop confidence, critical thinking, and empathy. These skills are crucial for their overall development and success in life.\r\n\r\nThe students were excited to open the boxes with the Heat Press and the Cricut Heat Press. Once the purpose was explained to the students, they understood that this activity was for them to be creative. The students made shirts, decorative aprons and mugs.
