Children who play with household objects may have stronger imaginations, psychology says
Original: Psychology says children who turn household objects into toys may have stronger imaginations than parents
Psychology commentary suggests that children who turn everyday household items into toys may be showing stronger imaginative capacity than their parents realise. The idea is resonating with parents, who are being encouraged to see improvised play with pots, boxes and other objects as a sign of creative development rather than misbehaviour or a lack of proper toys.
Why now: Parents are sharing and debating advice that reframes everyday child behaviour as a positive sign of creativity.
