Creative Tools

Instigating self-initiated creativity

During a period of research in different autistic schools a statement was highlighted that “self-initiated creativity in autistic children remains a problem.” Products were created to embrace this skill and specifically designed so the children’s mistakes or experiments were not comparable but just exploration.

The project concluded in a series of products and play workshops which successfully initiated the children’s independent creative thoughts. The main outcome created design workshops and feedback leading to positive learning that had previously not been embraced.
