It will be great if someone found exactly how method to create the imagination nerve for child. We almost forget that the foundation of civilization our mankind comes from creativities resulted from the imagination. Thank for remind me..
Let me share, If we consider the well known history people who contribute great creativities for the mankind eg.. in music, art, science.. It has been noted that those people childhood rather plays/stay with the nature, ( maybe condition as poor, remote) but some theory
Imagination brain is motivated / stimulated from the environments which have condition of uncompleted and complex. If we see the nature eg.. sky, tree, river. It is the most complex puzzle. One can view the sky differently from another obviously. Perception of child, there is no way that the sky or tree could be seen as completed & perfect form to explain.. it could be imagined to infinite mean..
Imagine, if everyday/ every minute, one kid has playing with this most complex puzzle, that kid has to see/solve puzzle everyday. Definitely, that kid is already working hard on building imagination & creativities nerve for being survival.
Therefore, I will not believe that school could help create the imagination/ creativies .. Because school have the limitation on space and contain with wall.. (when it is contained with the space and wall, it is likely seem as complete form.. .. everyday view as same.. perception and imagination are contained.)
We should find also our own way at home to create the imagination and creativities.. such as 2pasa from the khun por meu mai..
I never feel that communities web useful and never write some comment. But this community web seems interested for me as one of new father.
Good luck
PS. Buddhist way,, school guides may be seriously considered the child to not understand distractedly from its core concept and apply it correctly for appropriate the childhood. I think that will be most difficult to measure.
