The inspirational story of "Creativity for Kids" begins with two women, Phyllis Brody and Evelyn Greenwald who believed in the power of creativity in children's lives. This conviction came from their own childhood play experiences, those of their children and the many workshops and classroom programs that brought them into contact with children around the world.
Evelyn, who was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania studied art as an undergraduate and grew up to be an attorney. Phyllis, born In Brooklyn, New York, became a family counselor and taught art to children. Both produced and exhibited their own art- all the while never losing their inner child. When they started their families in Cleveland, Ohio both women took temporary leave from their professions to raise their children, fully expecting to return to their original careers.
They met in 1974 as volunteers in their children's elementary school in Cleveland Heights, Ohio where they brought creative programs into the classroom. They were struck by the total involvement and enthusiasm of the children and on the other hand by what they called the "turkey syndrome". Phyllis and Evelyn realized that when children were given simple, interesting materials along with opportunities to make choices, something magical occurred. They decided to package the magic and make it available to children everywhere. Click here to read more.

Getting kids to be creative is an amazing thing! The arts are so special and should be cherished but getting kids to be creative for a cause is even greater! I just got this book, Dosomething.org's Handbook for Young Activists and it is great. It gives tweens and young adults all the tools they need to go out and do something about causes they care about anywhere from helping troops overseas to getting healthier school lunches. It puts all the power in their hands and gets them motivated to take action about things that affect them in their own community. It's a great book for parents to get any of their budding young activists.
