It encourages us to: \t•\tExpress ourselves through art, music, writing, and movement \t•\tTeach children that creativity is a gift, not perfection \t•\tUse imagination to heal, build, and inspire Reflection: How can you practice Kuumba today—by creating something with your hands, encouraging your child’s imagination, or finding beauty in everyday
