AND IF WE IMAGINE… WHAT DO THEY IMAGINE?
Children, those small, yet at the same time, great little people who surprise us every day with their wit and brilliance, and we are astonished watching and listening to how, using a simple chair, they imagine Formula 1 cars, rockets reaching Pluto, or even stools where they play an invisible electric guitar, alongside the greatest Rock & Roll band in history.
Who hasn't built castles with blankets and pillows at their grandparents' house, turning the living room upside down with a row that could be heard from the other side of the world, as some hyperbolic people continue to describe as if it happened yesterday? Or who hasn't invented a fictional character with their neighborhood friends, had to call them more than once because dinner was getting cold, and upon walking through the door it was quite common to hear: "In the washing machine, clothes and all!" And if we're feeling nostalgic, just think of the World Cups we used to play in and broadcast like we were professionals.

At what point did we become part of a more real life, leaving behind that fantasy world where princesses, space knights, and cowboys and Indians have been part of our daily lives?
All these memories, which we still hold so dearly in our minds, can be part of the stories our children tell in the future. Creative children require creative parents, too, so let's continue fostering creativity and bringing out that inner child in all of us so our children grow up with curiosity, unleash their adventurous side, face all kinds of challenges without fear, and increase their curiosity and motivation to continue discovering.
When it comes to imagination, children have no limits; it's free and they don't need to recharge.
