Creative writing is one of the most important skills a child can learn. It stretches the imagination and offers a wonderful outlet for expression. Creative writing in particular is something that can never be taught to kids by giving them lectures and telling them all the rules, patterns and formats. To make them good at creative writing it is important to make them practice, not by forcing them to sit and write but by giving them some exciting activities. For the same cause, we in Orchids conducted Creative Writing Competition for classes I to III on 17/02/12. The topic given to the students was ‘My favourite dish’. All the students showed a lot of enthusiasm in participating and improving their vocabulary and syntax.
