Every day from the beginning of our lives we use observation, a sensing with our eyes, to motivate action and stimulate thought as we build an awareness of self and environment.
Every thought is accompanied by a vision.
Every visual experience is accompanied by a kinesthetic action within our body as it moves into the place of consciousness. Other senses become engaged as one processes visually with outside eyes . At this point the visual material is stored in memory where it is interpreted by inside eyes . The act of remembering calls on inside eyes to activate those same senses as they together bring the memory into perspective. This everyday process is a very powerful tool for Creative Learning and Development for it is literally tied into all aspects of development.
