ABSTRACT
Creativity has been defined as the rearrangement of preexisting forms, objects, and facts in a new order by the conceptual and emotional activity of the mind (Lansing, 1969). For Victor D’Amico (1973), “the essence of creativity is to find a new thing and use it in a new way.” These definitions are two ways of expressing the same concept, since what preexists is new to the child. “In the art of children we are enabled to see again the world as it is on the first time around” (Barron, 1973).
