“Maybe we should develop a Crayola bomb as our next secret weapon. A happiness weapon. A beauty bomb. And every time a crisis developed, we would launch one. It would explode high in the air – explode softly – and send thousands, millions, of little parachutes into the air. Floating down to earth – boxes of Crayolas. And we wouldn’t go cheap, either – not little boxes of eight. Boxes of sixty-four, with the sharpener built right in. With silver and gold and copper, magenta and peach and lime, amber and umber and all the rest. And people would smile and get a little funny look on their faces and cover the world with imagination.” ~Robert Fulghum
Remember the joys of a fresh box of crayons and a thick pad of unlined paper? A wonderful and bonding way to spend time with loved ones is to exercise creativity! Once out of their self-conscious shells, many people are able to access a very meaningful aspect of themselves through the process of creation. Plus it is simply so much fun!
