Batteries Not Included

Have you been concerned that our up and coming generations will not meet the challenges of a productive life?

Looking at all the violence on TV, Video Games, and Life involving our youth it seems that is their main focus.

Just look at the stuff we are promoting, they have functionality, but do not stimulate creativity. Exercising their minds and souls.

I have been very discouraged watching our youth and asking myself “What Happened”?



Lately, I have been recieving Artwork from our future (Some as young as 7) showing me that there still is hope.

My worry that all the Gagets and Games that only do what they were originally Designed to do will limit problem solving development.

This article is dedicated to the Sean Allenby’s, Andrew Marcotte’s, Elizabeth Mathis’s, and Ashlynn Berg’s out there that are not followers, but leaders. They have and use their Creative Abilities using their minds and hands finding them limitless.

They have used pencils, watercolors, acrylics, crayons, chalk, and mixed media in a very creative and appealing art form. I really look to see great things from these young people.

If that’s not enough to impress you. They also took the initiative to have their Artwork posted on a Blog. That shows balance in both worlds and a very healthy development.

I really just want to say.

THANK YOU
