These days writing seems to be out of fashion. Technology and passive information reception has become a routine. So active writing and thinking has become a new goal. Imagination has become a precious skill to be preserved and developed and creative writing is the right tool for everyone and especially for kids who are still new to the world and have unlimited capabilities.
Creative writing is one of the most effective ways to acquire skills of written expressions and creativity, both of unavoidable importance in social life, school or, later, in professional life.
It encourages research, critical thinking, problem solving and communication. It also promotes a taste for reading, improves grammatical skills and is the cradle of innovative ideas. It also plays an important role in managing emotions.
All you need is to involve children in playing with words, creating stories and fantastic worlds, where they manifest their ideas and express emotions, letting their thinking flow freely, without fear of tripping over mistakes. 
This is the invitation of this 5 session’s workshop: to give children resources to work with writing in a playful way. As writing is a game, where every player - the writer – is a winner!
Do you want to be a winner too? Then this workshop is for you. We will build “worlds” and their stories, create characters and bring them to life, play with words and their meanings. Let’s defy rules and experiment with looking at what we write differently. Let’s write, create, imagine, travel in the world of imagination.
