If you had super powers how would you control them? What is the crumbliest thing in the world? Is houmous made from wasps? What would the Queen sound like if she sang? What funny questions six-year-olds come out with! As educators and parents we seem to answer thousands of them a day. But could they be more important than we realise? What if there’s more to them than just an expression of an excitable imagination? Where could these questions lead and how do we keep them coming? By recording a list of one child’s questions, we explore how this curiosity could fuel future creativity, we consider at what point in our lives we begin to slow this questioning down and we investigate what adults can do to help develop a child’s questioning mind to enhance future innovation.
