This book gives concrete ideas for fostering creativity in our children. I found it not only inspiring, but also insightful and practical. I checked this book out at the library and I'm tempted to buy it because I know I will want to refer to it over the years. This is a must read for any parent!

I met this author at the Commercial free childhood conference in Boston. She is inspiring and the book is too! It really opens your eyes to things you can do with your child to encourage their creativity--and your own!
