Creativity
One of the most important gifts that teachers and parents can learn from young children is that time has no limits. As adults we are overpowered by rushing here and there and getting one task completed quickly so we can move onto the next. However, if you step by and truly watch your young child you will be amazed at what they can accomplish if there are not rushed. Whether it be working with Lego, large building blocks, a 60 piece puzzle or creatively designing a painting or some other kind of picture. A young child who takes their time will create something that is unique and very creatively and thoughtfully completed. I was sent a youtube video about Creativity Requires Time and had to share it with all the Kindergarten Parents. I hope you enjoy the message as much as I did and it reafirms my beliefs about creativity and children!
