Creative IQ (TM): Giving Young Learners the Creative Edge in a Competitive World
As a child I remember longing for the day when I would have enough money to buy my parents their birthday presents. The idea of something wrapped up in fancy paper with a bow seemed so appealing. Yet my parents insisted that they preferred our home-made cards and artwork and that it was not necessary to buy anything.
I didn’t believe them. Now I do!
The excitement on my kiddies’ faces as they presented their cards, coupons and artwork this morning (made on their own) for my own birthday felt truly priceless.Â
As we reflect on 2009 to date, we would like to thank the local businesses, who help support KidsAroundCanada.com through their presence in our local directories, and across our website. Their participation helps us connect you with useful resources all year long.

If you are hosting a princess party, consider welcoming your young guests with the chance to make their own ‘princess crown’.
Either cut out shapes in advance for the children to decorate or let your child develop their spelling skills and create crown printables with their guests’ names in the Golden Crown Spelling Bee (in Super Why Games at PBS online).
Then leave out crayons, markers, pencil crayons and/or stickers and watch the children create special crowns.Â
