Let There Be Mess

I am particularly organized in every way, but when it comes to fostering creativity on my child I just let the mess take over. I read that creative spirits should freely focus on creating and not be distracted by the need to keep the workplace in order. My toddler is no exception. You should see the mess he creates when he kneads, cuts, and rolls those play dough. My consolation is hearing how he labels every shapes he created out of the dough, his imagination is really working. I just let loose and not become too critical about the mess during creative play. I try to nurture and cultivate my son's ability and desire to be creative.

  1. lol - you remind me of my mother. She always allowed me and my sister to express our individuality from the youngest age. One time we played in a giant mud puddle when we were little and then cut our own hair - never wanted to do either again but she let us explore and learn on our own!

  2. I was the same way with my son when he was a toddler, but now he's 10 and he still makes huge messes for me to clean up. Now, I tend to get after him more about his mess though because he's old enough to clean up after himself.

  5. I agree. I also let my baby have her own creative mess around the house and once she gets tired, that's a signal for cleaning time!

  7. The fitness tips for motivation we've been discussing can be very powerful if you use them. By now it's a well established scientific fact that outdoor exercises are really good for your mental
    and emotional, as well as your physical health. The problem is that many
    do not follow through with their fitness plans and
    thus fail within the first 3 months of starting
    a new fitness plan or routine.
