Annotation: This article discusses the encouragement to be creative of young learners as
one of the crucial part of their personal development and the role of teacher in the classroom.
It provides some guidelines how to fulfill the children to be able to express themselves openly
and without judgment.
Key words: Creativity, freedom, talent, health, happiness, independence, encouragement,
musical expression, emotional intelligence, technological advances
Many people assume that creativity is an inborn talent that their kids either do or do not have:
just as all children are not equally intelligent, all children are not equally creative. But actually,
creativity is more skill than inborn talent, and it is a skill parents can help their kids develop.
Because it is a key to success in nearly everything we do, creativity is a key component of
health and happiness and a core skill to practice with kids. Creativity is not limited to artistic
and musical expression—it is also essential for science, math, and even social and emotional
intelligence. Creative people are more flexible and better problem solvers, which makes them
more able to adapt to technological advances and deal with change—as well as take advantage
of new opportunities. Many researchers believe we have fundamentally changed the experience
of childhood in such a way that impairs creative development. Toy and entertainment companies
feed kids an endless stream of prefab characters, images, props and plot -lines that allow children
to put their imaginations to rest. Children no longer need to imagine a stick is a sword in a
game or story they’ve imagined: they can play Star Wars with a specific light -saber in costumes
designed for the specific role.
Creativity involves the use of imagination and ideas to come up with something of value; a
physical invention, piece of art or a solution to a problem. Throughout our education, life and
working careers, creativity may play a significant role in development and success. Creativity
can be nurtured and it is often a way of thinking rather than an innate talent. Most of the people
we might describe as creative are probably individuals who have worked incredibly hard at their
craft and practiced specific skills.
The famous picasso quote goes, ―Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an
artist once he/she grows up‖. There are some that hold the view that schools somewhat dampen
creativity in the pursuit of academic success. The famous Ken Robinson TED talk Do schools
kill creativity, one of the most viewed TED talks of all time, supports this notio n: ―Creativity
is the freest form of self-expression.
Creativity is sometimes seen as an innate ability – we‘re either born creative or we‘re not.
But this just isn‘t true. Sure, some people are perhaps born with traits that lend themselves well
to developing certain skills, and individuals have different capacities for processing information
and learning, but this shouldn‘t act to deter the development of creativity. There exist some ways
to cultivate and develop creativity in children:
