Studies show that when a child’s imagination is being developed, his or her mind is being developed. Imagination helps a child to develop self-confidence and increase problem solving abilities. As a child’s imagination increases they learn how to express themselves and engage different parts of their brain. That was the reason If I was a dragon was born.
