Happy New Year! Today rings in the first day of Creative Every Day 2009, a challenge started by the wonderful artist and creative blogger Leah Piken Kolidas. This year Leah will be providing a theme for each month to help spark our creativity. January’s theme is play – one of my core values!
I’ve already had a creative start to 2009. This afternoon I took a yoga class at Monkey Yoga where the teachers infuse their practice with play and fun. Tim had us doing his “chimpasana” and “gorillasana” (both pretty hard, but hilarious made-up poses) and Laura always makes me laugh. I doodled a bit tonight, too. And I spent time planning for several creative projects that I’m excited to share soon.
Yeah, what a great way to start the new year!

It sounds like a fun day! I love that your play was found throughout the day and it was both kinesthetic and artistic. I need to move more!
