Creativity is important in all walks of life - not just in art. The CEO of a company requires creativity, as does a mother juggling time with family responsibilities. It needs to be allowed to flourish in the young, as it will stay with them always.

My first career was as a teacher back in the UK and I loved allowing the kids to have complete artistic freedom with the cereal boxes, toilet roll holders etc that we collected. I didn’t ever show them how to make anything - they showed me! And they were only 5 years old!!
