Born to create

One thing kids do is create stuff.

This seems like a natural inclination. Blocks need to be stacked. Paint needs to be put on paper. Songs need to be sung. Clay needs to be formed. Bubbles need to come alive.

If you’re not careful, this urge to create is easy to take for granted. Stuff gets messy. We’ve done it a million times. We’ll move on to something else in two minutes anyways.

A good rule of thumb is always, always allow them to create.
