Question

Think of your children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, little brothers or sisters. With very little "life experience," they can still imagine a cardboard box is actually a train or a space ship or Elsa's ice castle from Frozen.
if we are indeed born creative, what happens to us as we grow up? Why does it so often seem that creativity is either gone or is somehow horribly elusive?

Explanation / Answer

Creativity is one phenomenon that keeps life interesting. Creativity is one’s ability to think of new ideas and solutions by finding the connection between the disconnected elements or analyzing connected elements for something new. Creativity is also the ability of the mind to think.

Everyone in this world is born with creativity but it’s about how much we use them or train our mind to be creative. Children today are really intelligent and creative than their parents. As years pass, creativity is considered to be the top most characteristics of students, employees, companies and governments. Think of a mother trying to pacify a crying child. The child always stops crying with a new technique which means, the mother needs to be creative enough to deploy different strategies to pacify the child and this needs creativity.

Today the world poses enough distractions with the technologies. TV, internet and mobile phones have been blamed for stopping the kids to think because visual content stops imagination. It also prevents children from going out to play thus preventing them from finding solutions to real life problems. They start to live in a virtual world which cannot provide real time solutions.

Today’s educational system kills creativity. They encourage rote learning and high scores. The answering methods are very limited because they have only one solution to a question, whereas in real life people think quickly, improvise and go past the traditional ways of doing things. So allowing the children to think freely will help the children to be creative.

Creativity is with everyone but the exposure to different situations and problems will help children think for creative ideas.
