One thing that people are telling us they love about Spark is that it is simple. You don’t need directions to use Spark, but a few tips may help you find new and different ways to use them.
Here are a tips that we have found work. We welcome your suggestions too:
- Creativity loves company. The classic ‘brainstorm’ usually involves a group of people for good reason. Most of us enjoy building on the ideas of others and we gain creativity (and confidence) when others are sharing.
- Be willing cut loose. Silly can be really, really fun.
- Ask one question at a time. Many of the Spark scenarios have a question and then another prompt. We have had the best success with waiting for an answer for the first question before moving on.
- Be comfortable with a bit of silence. Young children may take extra time to process a question. Some wonderfully fun responses have followed a lengthy pause in our home (and a few have popped up days later).
