How to improve creativity and innovation in 3-4yr old kids?
I’m looking for games (online or otherwise) or some stories, plays, etc that would improve children’s creativity and inculcate innovation in them. I feel that early years are the only time to train the brain for creativity.
thanks!
Here are some activities that encourage creative play with kids.
- draw, color, paint, scribble
- dance to some music
- playing pretend with dolls, cars, other toys
- having props to pretend to be different careers like a doctor, mail carrier, fire fighter, police officer, etc
- building with blocks, big size legos, tinker toys, etc
- modeling with clay, play-doh
- give them basic musical instruments and let them bang
around and make noise (like pots and pans, jingle bell shakers, toy drum, toy flute, toy trumpet, etc)
- give them lots of different kinds of experience to build their background knowledge (go to museums, zoos, parks, etc)
- read to them (build vocabulary, comprehension, fluency over time)
