Teaching Your Children to Innovate

Teaching Your Children to Innovate

Innovation skills are just like any other skills-based activity that can be taught to children. It is not an innate talent that only a few people have. Innovation is a skill that can be learned and applied in various situations, and it is not just about inventing new products. Children need to learn that innovation is about creating novelty in the everyday things, making it a routine way to approach new situations. Parents can teach ambidextrous innovation that distinguishes between innovation skills and problem-solving skills. Lastly, parents must set an example to demonstrate these skills themselves.
