Kids are not only creative by themselves but they also push you to be creative. When doing or planning something for kids, you have to as innovative as possible and find new ways to do the same old things to engage them in it.
Take a toddler's mother who has to find new ways to make eating the same food everyday (there are really limited options in toddler food!). Think of a school teacher who has to find new ways everyday to teach the age-old Science and Maths lessons to his or her young students. Imagine the number of bed time stories grandmothers have to have in their repertoire to please their grandchildren.
Kids do help you realise how creative you can be. Maybe it will turn out to be more than you ever thought yourself to be!
The key is in keeping the child in you alive... :D. Which means, keep curiosity, some amount of rigidity and loads of naughtiness. Creativity will follow... :d
