Imagination: why it matters

ParentMap, October 2009 Issue

Just imagine! 

OK, yeah, an over-used expression. But is your imagination getting the workout it needs? Are you as playful as you could be? And do you parent to bring out the best in your child's imagination?

Should that even matter? It won't get 'em into a good college. Or will it?

Turns out, imagination goes a long way towards success, in school and in life. Find out why in this month's feature, "Why imagination matters."

Then, while you're thinkin' about thinkin', spare a thought for stress levels, too. New mom? Take time for yourself - it's crucial! Kid having an awful time at school? Could be a class mis-match

Also this month - scare up some Halloween fun at Seattle's weirdest museum.
