Conclusion
This literature review highlighted a few classroom-based creative expression programmes aimed at enhancing the well-being of children. The outcomes of the studies, although lacking in consistency and methodological rigour in some cases, are encouraging and can lead us to believe that this type of intervention might be beneficial for children’s well-being. However, one needs to be cautious with these results as some studies also reported no improvement. This draws attention to the paucity of strong evaluation of this type of programmes. As more research is conducted in this field, the impact of classroom-based creative expression programmes could be ascertained, thus making them valid prevention and treatment tools. In turn, education authorities should consider integrating this type of intervention in the regular school curricula as a preventive measure. To achieve this, awareness must be raisedamong decision makers and mobilization of those concerned bythis change, namely teachers and school professionals, needs to besuccessfully carried out.
