Brittney Jackeline Have you ever wondered how closely related is creativity with childhood? Why do children cross all limits of convention and norms? Why is it that the grass can be red, the sun blue and the leaves all pink? The best possible reply to it may be that children are full of energy and ideas which are not yet fenced by the rule of the thumb.
Their energy level is at such a height where they are at free will to create, to destruct, to break and to mend. They do not know what is right and what is not. They just follow where their imagination leads them to. However, it is at this crucial time that the parents, the guardian and the teachers should take extra care and channelize all the energy and imagination towards the right direction – towards creation and overall development of the child.
