Online, October 7, 2010 (Newswire.com) - This week the AnswerGirls new Solutions column focuses on the importance of teaching children how to think outside the box.
The ability to think outside the box comes from developing a child's creative thinking skills. This improves his or her problem solving skills. All of our top leaders excel at creative thinking, which is a skill that can be learned, no matter what your age.
Don't give this skill short credit, thinking of it as only being useful to people who want to draw a picture, write a story or compose a hit song. Creativity is a much broader skill. And, when you develop those creative thinking skills you develop better creative thought processing skills, which leads to thinking outside the box when encountering a problem.
Solutions, the AnswerGirls weekly online column, is all about creative thinking and simple solutions. Published every Wednesday, each column tackles a fresh problem, providing readers with a simple solution. This week Solutions includes an easy creative thinking exercise that the whole family will enjoy. You'll find it at http://www.answergirls.com/solutions004100610.html.
The AnswerGirls also offer a $1.00 e-booklet, "Encourage Creativity in Children". It explains how to teach this critical skill, and includes 8 simple activities that make it fun for children and adults to sharpen their creative thinking skills. Available exclusively from www.AnswerGirls.com.
