Playful minds

The curiosity of children and adolescents knows no limits. It breaks boundaries and runs fast down a road full of creativity. Anything will serve the purpose to have a good time alone or with friends and also to exploring the environment, others and, above all, themselves. I believe that technology and creativity can create a good and health relationship enhancing each other. What happens when no smart gadgets are available for the young ones? An improvised paper mask to wear and scare passers-by, a plastic bag or a t-shirt to play hide-and-seek.  A world of pure imagination takes form where we, as adults, are not allowed to enter, not anymore. When we are given the privilege to take part in it, we can only recall the importance of curiosity that is at the heart of all learning and help us form more meaningful connections with life and others.
