It's not that I have anything against googly eyes, but they can stifle the imagination. What could be used in their place? Buttons, beads, lentils, elderberries, screwed up tissue paper, split peas, blue tac, play dough, plasticine.....this is how to engage our creative side, by questioning, exploring, playing, experimenting, looking around for different ways of doing things, thinking outside of the box....welcome to The Imagination Box! 
Here, I am going to document and share all the creative ideas I have developed over the years, with my 2 fantastically responsive children, Charlie 6 and Elvie 4, and in many workplace settings, from hospitals to a little school in a wood! If you are a parent who would love to be more creative with your kids, please join me here where I shall regularly upload posts, fun art projects, links to resources, interesting articles
and more......you can also follow me on facebook, twitter and pinterest. Everyone can be creative, really!

    Welcome!

    Welcome!

    Hello! I'm Diane Pagan from Manchester, UK.
    My ideas are road tested by my 11 and 9 year olds - or at workshops I run with all kinds of kids and adults in schools, hospitals and community settings :-)
