Children's creativity museum : a place for imagination and innovation

Abstract

Playing is a fundamental right and a vital component of the life of every child. lt is an inevitable element of a child's overall development and has a direct impact on physical, mental and social wellbeing. Through the play proc€ss, a child transforms from childhood to a healthy adult with the required skills such as cognitive, motor, psychological, health, education, communication and creativity to be a future citizen of a nation. More than two million children live in Dhaka city, the capital of Bangladesh. Thus, it is important to create a media art and technology based interactive museum to unite children of the city as one. As the children of Dhaka city are being deprived of outdoor play and recreation provision which is affecting their overall physical and mental development and thus affects their creativity, a museum of such will help the children of the city to have a healthy, educative, communicative and creative life.
