The Summer Creative Case gathers five Creative Family ideas to take on holiday without adding pressure or perfect plans. It suggests making space for boredom, imagining new uses for everyday objects, turning long trips into play, exploring nature through questions and catching family memories. A simple resource for playing, bonding and creating together throughout the summer.

Creative and critical thinking are not separate capacities. For ByBa, questioning reality first requires imagining that it could be different and building an identity of our own from which to think. Creativity shapes both processes. Without the possibility of difference or a singular position from which to see the world, critical thinking loses its foundation and risks becoming borrowed thought.

In 1985, two Dublin boys turned an afternoon of play into a clandestine journey to New York. Their story is not an invitation to imitate the feat, but to recognise a lasting childhood impulse: to explore, be seen and enlarge the world. Tools change, yet imagination still needs freedom, play, shared time and experiences capable of becoming truly lasting memories.
