Rethinking Creativity playfully and musically in schools

Rethinking Creativity playfully and musically in schools

Is creativity all about thinking out or inside the box? How do we embrace creativity within the boundaries of our curriculum and system? How do we empower the next generation to deliver the not-yet imagined?

In this interactive and kinesthetic-based workshop, leaders will be challenged to rethink the definition of creativity and how it can be translated into practices in their preschools. The power of creative constraints will be further explored through hands-on activities. This workshop will also look at how creativity can be manifested inside the box/ boundaries/ constraints, which in turn allows the leaders to re-think and re-imagine strategies and ideas in their daily practices.
