[quote=Anonymous]I feel like most preschool children are extremely creative, but that creativity sometimes goes away as they enter formal education. My sister was like this, always creating amazing art projects and doing science experiments when she was young, but that as she got older she became less open to experimentation. She is incredibly successful, at least by DCUM standards,with a Harvard BA, Yale MBA and a great job, but we were talking the other day and wondering what kind of life she might have had if our parents had encouraged her to explore her creative side more. Our parents are wonderful, but they weren't really into using the left side of the brain. We want to make sure our kids don't lose this magical ability and are wondering what other parents do help encourage their children to think creatively as they get older? [/quote]
