How do we provide experiences that allow our children to think creatively?
In an interview with Loris Malaguzzi (The Hundred Languages of Children p. 49 - 97), he lists some key elements that address creativity (I am only listing 3 of 9):
1. Creativity emerges from a well-supported sense of freedom to venture beyond the known.
2. Creativity seems to find its power when adults are less tied to prescriptive methods, but instead become observers and interpreters of problematic situations.
3. Creativity becomes more visible when adults are attentive to the processes of children than the results.
