“We are all creative, but by the time we are three or four years old, someone has knocked the creativity out of us. Some people shut up the kids who start to tell stories. Kids dance in their cribs, but someone will insist they sit still. By the time the creative people are ten or twelve, they want to be like everyone else.”
People Who Care
Many of our volunteers are parents, teachers and mentors who have worked in environments that require individuals to think creatively and problem solve via out-of-the-box thinking. This is why we are passionate about this cause. We understand that in order to stay competitive in today's world it's absolutely necessary to exercise the right side of the brain just as much as the left. Our children will realize that right brain thinking will be in greater and greater demand as high-technology takes away so many left brain jobs.
Imagine That
We provided 50 children in grades 3-5 with a template that had the words "Imagine That", art supplies and the simple direction to "finish it however they wanted." Their submissions showcase the wonderful and unique creative thinking of our youth.
