This study examines the effect of teacher’s intervention on Young children’s creativity during the
block play. To do so, 42 five-year-old children who currently attend D kindergarten located in Seoul
were studied. The experimental group children played blocks with teachers’ intervention while the
control group Young children played blocks without such intervention. Teacher’s Creativity Rating
Scale for Young Children, developed by Younghee Noh, Kyungchul Kim, and Ho Kim (2006) was
used to analyze the examination. As for data assessment, ANCOVA was used. It was found that
teacher’s intervention during block play had positive effects on children’s creativity and its sub-areas
such as divergent thinking, curiosity, flow, informal independence, and independence. The results
showed possibility of using block play in improving Young children’s creativity and importance of
teacher’s adequate intervention during the block play.
