When we were children, our imaginations exploded with creativity, joy and wonder. Whether we had imaginary unicorn friends or believed sticks could transport us to a secret hiding place, imaginative play was an integral part of our childhood. Today, even in a time of advanced technology, creative play still an important part of our children’s childhood.
During this time of year, even we as adults are overcome with creativity. Whether it’s telling daily stories of a mischievous little elf, or leaving carrots out for Santa’s reindeer, the holidays bring out the kid in all of us.
