"Our brains need exercise just as our body does. Here are a few creative thinking exercises that are designed to do just that. One exercise that is used to develop skills of looking at things by using different angles is to take a piece of paper with three shapes drawn onto it (it can be a circle, hexagon or square) in any color. Now looking at the shapes begin to describe what you see; the
. answers can be very simple or creative. The basis of this activity is about having an imaginative approach to solve problems. Creative writing exercises are also good thinking exercises. Take two objects, ie. a cherry and a cake. Write down the materials or composition of the objects and try to describe the objects uses. Once the meaning of the two objects is clear, the two objects should be made to relate to one another. This creative thinking exercise helps people hone into their individual thinking skills by taking different approaches to different issues."
