Creative Thinking Cards

Nurture imagination, invention and play

For many of us, one of our strongest – yet vaguest – desires is to be more creative. But how can we achieve this? Creativity isn’t reserved for artists – it’s about how we think, explore and play. It’s a skill we can nurture and gently tease out of ourselves.

This set of cards is a tool to help us awaken the imaginative and original parts of our minds. Each prompt invites us to surprise ourselves, ask unusual questions and rediscover our longing to create something new.

Instructions

These cards are designed to be used either on your own or with a group of friends. They can be used as sources of inspiration, journal prompts or conversation starters.

• Shuffle the cards and choose one at random
• Read the prompt – either to yourself or aloud to a group of friends
• Respond with honesty, curiosity and playfulness. Allow yourself to go off-topic if that’s where your imagination takes you
