“Easy” entertainment like cartoons or picture books, etc. should therefore be considered as “sweets” to be consumed in moderation: it is obviously easier to look at the work of others than to do it yourself, which is why children ask for more.

But this disadvantages them in the medium and long term by weakening their various skills.

It therefore makes sense to slightly modify the approach to entertainment for young children. By starting as early as possible, the child will quickly accept it as the norm (this was easily observed during the test phase). This approach will therefore quickly become an integral part of its DNA to use a buzz word.

The impressive difference between “passive” vs “active” development of imagination and creativity in children’s brain was also demonstrated.

The first most often leads to sterile dreams which, later, can lead to depression or aggression (often due to great frustration at not being able to express one’s abilities, nor experience the satisfactions of the different stages of an accomplishment), while the second allows fulfillment through the realization of the child’s different potentials.

Let’s take the example of a cartoon. After viewing it, activity in the areas of imagination and creativity is low because the brain is “lazy” since it is content to receive information passively.

If, on the contrary, we encourage the children to read or listen to a story, the opposite happens: the center of creativity and the one of imagination become very active (their drawings are much more detailed and their communication becomes better).

Very important additional effect: the level of so-called satisfaction hormones (following personal accomplishment) is high, which increases one’s confidence in the development of one’s abilities.

On the other hand, the search for satisfaction in the future will be done by soliciting one’s imagination and creativity, instead of fleeing into deceptive and often unproductive approaches.
