Introduction:It's no longer secret that science is witnessing radical changes that almost devastate people's constants and their cultural, social and value-based heritage since they will only be affected by the forces of change that have escaped their reins in the age of knowledge because they will adapt to more restrictive problems or new developments that are also difficult to grasp and control. In this context, the role of the creative thinking comes if its skills are innate in the minds of our children as it solves problems and seeks successful solutions or minimizes their harm. The kindergarten is a purposeful educational stage that is no less important than the other stages. It is also a distinct stage, stand –alone with its philosophy and goals, derived from the surrounding environment and related to the capabilities and energies of all kindergartens, so It's extremely important issue to take care of the kindergarten stage. In a kindergarten, the child grows in an integrated way, expands his perception, and develops his skills through various games and activities. Furthermore, “his various needs are satisfied, and his inclinations are properly directed” (Rafeda Hariri, 2003, 19) and the kindergarten child falls into the pre-operations stage according to the Piaget theory of cognitive development. Thus, the child is governed by what he sees and feels and is not logical thinking, and his thinking is one-way, and it is difficult for him to perceive the relationships between things. Educational activities aim to develop and acquire mental skills such as critical thinking and creative thinking. Educational activities aim to develop and acquire mental skills such as critical thinking and creative thinking, and there is no doubt that Creativity adds value to knowledge and makes it even more beneficial steadily (Cao Jun, 2001, 9) Consequently The learner should be aware of features which facilitate the growth of his sensory consciousness and social interaction and enable him to express feelings, impulses and imagination by all means, and the learner should discover that by himself to improve those creative abilities” (Sarmad Altaee 2002,75). Therefore, interest in the creative process was a scientific necessity for facing the future, leading many educators to call for the need to develop creative thinking through different activities, (MinaFayez, 2005, 154-155). There is a study indicate that “Creative production is a fundamental task for the learner.” (Ebrahim Alfar, 2012,62).

Z-test as one of the non-parametric tests. • Recommendations: Based on the results, the researcher makes some decisions and Recommends: - Convincing and believing that each person is creative, we are not teaching creativity because creativity is an inherent thing that exists for each individual, and education is only developing it. - Implementation of various programs in all stages of general education to improve creative thinking skills. -Including creative thinking strategies curriculum in the teacher preparation colleges. -Training in-service teachers on strategies to develop critical thinking skills. - Conduct educational studies to determine the attitudes of teachers towards creative thinking programs. - Start implementation of the program of creative thinking skills in all kindergartens. - The schools must provide the programs needed to improve the skills of creative thinking. • Study proposals: The researcher proposes the following useful studies: 1- The effectiveness of a program based on creative thinking activities in developing first-stage academic motivation in children. 2- The effectiveness of the enrichment program to develop the creative thinking of the child, based on scientific activities. 3- The effect of creative thinking program on reducing childhood stubbornness. 4- Effectiveness of the creative thinking skills training to improve academic achievement in pre-school children. 5- The impact of the Kurt program on the growth of creative thinking in early childhood.
