Creativity is now the #1 skill needed in the workforce, per the World Economic Forum, so supporting our kids/ creativity (and redeveloping our own) is top of mind.
Children come to us with unbounded creativity. They are ready to explore, imagine and invent. As parents, teachers and caregivers, we need to be aware how creativity unfolds. Join Shawn ‘The Creative Kid‘ as he goes throughout his day bringing the 16 Diamond Tools of Creative Thinkers to life.
Through playful lyrics and colorful illustrations, Shawn “The Creative Kid“ inspires young readers to showcase their creativity for all to see. At the end of the book, Genein discusses how Shawn is developing his creative thinking and what parents, teachers and caregivers can do to support it and not hurt it.
