Importance of Creativity

I just watched a video of Sir Ken Robinson speaking on the importance of human creativity and human imagination. I can relate to this video. My daughter just turned 4. I know how important it is to let her explore her imagination and creative side.
I have noticed when some children her age are playing on the swing set at the park, she is drawing pictures in the sand. I never have stopped her from doing the things she wants to do. I know that for her to be considered 'smart', she needs to be great in math and sciences, but she could do just as well in Art class. This is what Sir Ken Robinson was speaking about in this video. It is so important for our children to explore the arts and find what they like.
