Creativity Week of 4-15-12

Usually I post blogs the Saturday before i start a new word, but I am running late this week, so it is the Saturday after.  I think it's ok though because most blogs that I read start out with "Oh I feel so guilty about not blogging more I need to get in the habbit!"  So I think we are good.  Just don't ask your kids what they learned this week and wonder why they did not learn about creativity.

Oh, and last weeks word was creativity!  We learned about how God is creative, and how he made us in his image, which makes us a little bit like God, which also makes us creative!(Find this in Genesis 1)  Try explaining that to a 4 year old!

We also looked at some of the psalms as an example of how David was creative.

I would urge every person to find a creative outlet in life.  I think that God gave us all different gifts to cultivate.  I think that using these gifts is part of his plan for us.

So whether it is music, art, woodworking, lego building, construction, math equations, gardening, or whatever, get out in the world and make something!
