In January 2008, I left my job at the newspaper so that I could be home for my kids (and freelance write). My oldest daughter (7) accompanied me on one of my last days and wandered around talking to my colleagues. Later, one of my colleagues took me aside and asked if it was true I was leaving to work at the bakery across the street from our house so that I could walk to work.
There is no bakery across the street from our house. There is an empty field and houses beyond that.
My daughter is creative, but I wonder if she will always be creative. (This is not an isolated incident.)
Is creativity taught? How do we teach creativity? What can be done to encourage hers? (Or mine, for that matter….)
I plan on studying creativity. What are some of the books you would recommend? What does creativity mean to you?
Also, there are a couple Web sites with the main focus of creativity, which I want to explore, but here is just a fun Web site that has recommendations for the Anti-Princess, in honor of my daughter’s creative genes. (At least I hope it is genetics at play!)
