Description

This study aimed to clarify how 4-year-old children share motifs with other children in their creative play. Participatory observation was conducted in 8 kindergarten classes of 4-year-olds and 5-year-olds, respectively, for 6 months. Both children's body positioning and visual interactions were analyzed. The analysis revealed that children first moved next to other children, gazed at the other children's creations, and showed the other children their own creations. In other words, their gazes crossed at close range. After this, they directed their utterances about their motifs not only toward adults in the vicinity, but also towards other children, indicating that the motifs were shared between the children. Finally, children appropriated the others' ideas to make their own creations in collaborative creative play.
