In this episode of Am I the Teacher?, we explore the essential skills of critical and creative thinking—key tools for lifelong problem-solving. In today’s fast-changing world, children need more than memorisation; they need to think independently, challenge ideas, and develop innovative solutions.

🧠 Discussion Points:

• Why critical and creative thinking are essential life skills.
• How these skills empower children to solve real-world problems.
• Practical strategies for parents and educators to nurture these abilities.
• Simple, engaging activities to strengthen critical and creative thinking at home and in the classroom.

💡 Key Takeaways:

• Encouraging curiosity helps children become confident problem solvers.
• Creativity and critical thinking can be developed through everyday experiences.
• Open-ended questions and reflection fuel deeper thinking.

🎯 Challenge:This week, ask your child an open-ended question (e.g., “What would you invent to make life easier?”). Listen to their ideas without judgment and encourage them to think even bigger.

📢 Call to Action:Start a “Thinking Challenge” at home or in the classroom—give children a fun problem to solve each week and celebrate their creative solutions!
