Tinkerbell, talent and calling.

I was having this ‘conversation’ with a friend on face book about creativity and children and how formal education may hinder their creative streak, when I remembered one of the movies that my daughter and I love watching – Tinkerbell. The opening scene in the movie shows how Tinkerbell ‘comes to life’ and is given a choice of talents to choose from. She goes for things that fascinate her or that has members who are friendly towards her. But she ends with a talent that chooses her instead. Watch this clip and see what I mean.
