The Creativity Institute Toy News of the Week

Helping children to be more creative for life - Part 1

Some children grow up being more creative than others. Part of the reason is genetic and part is a combination of encouragement and opportunity.

If a child shows an interest in drawing, has the right amount of direction and enough art supplies he’s more like to develop his creative potential than the child who doesn’t. In “Raising a more creative child through art and music: Part 1”, by Karla M. Somers of the Atlanta Single Parenting Examiner, the author begins a series on child creativity and creative development in children. You can this article on the importance of creativity for young children read it while it’s still online here:
