Problem-solving matters in improving creativity and overcoming obstacles that inhibit kids from reaching their full potential

Problem solving matters and it matters in a massive way.  Problem solving is how we apply what we know to find solutions to complex problems.  It is not only how we innovate new medical procedures and design sleeker iPhones, but also how we determine the logistics of getting our kids to activities on-time and figuring out how to squeeze all those clothes Into suitcases on vacation. We think of what we are trying to do, consider alternatives, test a thesis, and then make a series of choices that hopefully result in a solution that works.
