Translation of the Creative Thinking Skills Handout

April 21st is World Creativity and Innovation Day (#WCID)! The United Nations sanctioned this day to encourage creative thinking to help us achieve the sustainable future we want.  The theme for this year is collaboration.  

When speaking with my creative contributors, I asked them what we might do to collaborate and celebrate our creativity.

Lucy Valls, a creativity catalyst and founder of Criatividade Contagiante suggested we take the document I has originally designed around creative thinking skills for the book Weaving Creativity into Every Strand of Your Curriculum, and translate it into multiple languages. I loved this idea! So Lucy took the lead on this project, and we can now share the creative thinking skills sheet in twelve languages!
