Creative Ace
Did you know that children are the most creative spieces on earth?
The other day, i attended a full day seminar and the speaker divided us into groups of 4 and asked us to come up with a brainstorming session and name as many uses as we can with a bottled of water.
My team came up with 17 uses.
The highest record in the room was 35 uses.
Want to know what is the highest record in the world so far? 165 uses!
Gee! And guess who are these group of wonderfully creative geniuses? They are a group of 9 year olds!
The reason why they are able to do that is because children have alot less preconcieved notions about things. This is why they are more creative and are so amazingly great idea givers!
I bet if Ace were in my team, he can contribute much more to it as we see his creativity at work everyday. Even a stroller (which is now seldom used) can become a fun toy for him to play with for a good half an hour! :)
yeah children are more creative and imaginative...hmmm...that's must be why I keep imagining ghosts and monsters in my room when I was young. :)
