What is an Idea Board? #0016

An Idea Board is a space (a whiteboard, cork board, or even a wall with sticky notes) where kids can jot down, sketch, or pin their thoughts, dreams, and inventions. It serves as a visual playground for creativity, allowing young minds to explore, refine, and expand their ideas.

Why is it Important?

• Encourages Creative Thinking – Helps children visualize and connect ideas.
• Boosts Problem-Solving Skills – Encourages them to think of multiple solutions.
• Develops Entrepreneurial Mindset – Ideas can turn into real projects!
• Builds Confidence – Seeing their ideas take shape fosters a sense of achievement.

How to Get Started?

1. Choose a Space – A wall, board, or a digital platform like Trello.
2. Gather Materials – Sticky notes, markers, sketches, printouts, and small objects.
3. Encourage Free Thinking – No idea is too small or silly!
4. Update Regularly – Add, refine, and experiment with new ideas.
5. Take Action – Turn promising ideas into small projects or experiments.
