The notion of creativity is included in the Hong Kong kindergarten curriculum framework. However, despite the fact that creativity is a complex and multifaceted notion, the curriculum does not clearly define what creativity means in relation to 3- to 6-year-old children. Stakeholders may have different understandings of creativity, possibly leading to difficulties in implementing this notion into practice.
