We all tap into our subconscious and creative minds in different ways – and that’s where the most interesting and innovative ideas often come from!
All of us get there differently which is why the most effective brainstorming sessions incorporate ways to ignite all 5 senses (sight, smell, touch,hearing and taste).
I don’t broadcast my use of sensory igniters to the guests in the session – I just make sure they are there and then watch the magic happen.
Sight – colourful toys, pictures and crayons.
Smell – Play-Doh, Mr. Sketch scented markers, and fresh cut oranges.
Touch – tactile toys, Play-Doh and crayons.
Hearing – music.
Taste – Retro candy bags – jaw breakers, Thrills gum, Caramels,and gummy bears
Its truly amazing how many incredible ideas are generated in a session that triggers the sensory igniters!!!
