We have a poster board where we are keeping a list of all the character qualities we study. Caleb writes them with marker, however he wants, on the poster. He got down on the floor to start writing as I started spelling CREATIVITY. He was writing it in a pattern with the letters going backwards and forwards. I almost stopped him and then I thought "wait, what is the word he is writing?" and let him continue writing it in his own creative way!
For the lesson we talked about our Creator God and His creativity in creating us and our world. We talked about ways we could be creative at home and at work/school to do routine things in a new and fun way.
For an activity I gave each of us 15 sticks. We sat in different areas of the house, I set the timer, and we each had to create something. My creation was totally different from the other two. Daddy added stuff to his which was creative because we hadn't said you couldn't use anything else in your creation. It was a fun quick activity to show how we all think differently and come up with different things.
