Amy Schaffer is the creative director and co-creator of The Wonderment, a nonprofit digital platform and global community based in Salt Lake City where thousands of kids from over 25 countries have taken creative action to connect and impact communities all over the worl. Growing up, teachers and parents always asked me, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Even when we are adults, many of us still feel like we haven’t found what we want to be when we grow up. Amy Schaffer, who has given a TED talk about this question, claims that it is the wrong question to ask kids, and that instead we should be asking, “What do you wonder about?” She shares about why a sense of wonder is an essential trait not only for children, but also for everyone.
