A Surprising Source of Strength: Empowering Kids to Use Creativity Through Challenge


Creativity has unlimited potential to enrich children’s and teens’ lives. Moreover, creativity can always be tapped, including during challenging times—for example, when kids experience change or transitions, social/emotional issues, gifted-related demands, or motivational concerns. Creativity is a choice! This session has a dual focus: to better understand the power of creativity, and to help kids harness it for successful outcomes.
