Be Creative

Creative means having the quality or power of creating. Every individual is creative in his/her own way. It means being original. You produce high quality and genuinely significant ideas or products. It is extremely crucial in fostering children’s creativity. According to UNESCO, “the encouragement of creativity from an early age is one of the best guarantees of growth in a healthy environment of self-esteem and mutual respect — critical ingredients for building a culture of peace.” In the activity above, the children are challenged to use their creative minds to find a creative way to solve the puzzle. Each of them gave their best. Finally, they managed. But how did they do it? We said and asked, “You did it. Can you tell us your secret?” A child responded creatively, “Because we worked together as a team!” How wonderful is that? It is an epic moment to be remembered.
