Answer 3

Open their minds to everything out there....

The children in my day care are introduced to anything and everything crafty, we take field trips to the Carnegie Science Musem and Pittsburgh Children's Museum, we do a small craft daily and on Fridays we allow creativity to take control of our room. We put on plays, sing songs, puppet shows, gardening, painting, drawings, music instruments, building blocks and much much more. Creativity can come from imaginitive play with costumes. At the day care I have a massive box of uniforms and hats that the children can pretend to be firemen or cooks or what ever they find. I also have a large kitchen/home center where the girls love dragging the boys in to play house and they cook and pretend there as well. We take walks and even stop at the park where the children are especially creative with snow and what they can build. A sandbox during the summer will get the same results. It is natural for children to have imaginations and it isn't hard to bring out the creativity in a child but it very easy to stiffle it.

Do not, treat you students, like..well, student's treat them as if they are your niece or nephew.
