Creativity has been associated with right or forehead brain activity or even specifically with lateral thinking.

Some students of creativity have emphasized an element of chance in the creative process.

Children need time for creative exploration, experimentation, and innovation. Many children go through childhood learning only about competition, rules, control, and conformity, and little about the joy of exploration, innovation, and discovery as these elements pertain to acts of creation.

To solve a problem creatively, children need to be able to see a variety of perspectives and to generate several solutions. When working on a math problem for instance, children can be taught to examine their surroundings for "cues" that will help them generate a pool of possible solutions.

Children who are given choices show more creativity than do children who have all choices made for them.
