With "Creative Genius" students learn and grow their creative thinking skills. Creative thinkers have a significant advantage in school and in life. "Creative Genius" moves students beyond lower-level thinking skills, like fact recall, and stimulates them to make new connections, think beyond the obvious, and find the possible within the impossible. Children who are encouraged to imagine, dream, generate new ideas, and give those ideas form, are motivated learners and become the innovators of tomorrow.
