“Leonardo shows us by example and through his writings, that to have fun learning and to spark our creativity, we must experience it," says Barbara Hardesty, founder of Da Vinci Capers. "In order to really experience an activity such as cooking, drawing, learning a language or writing, it is best to have an open mind and not to worry about the results.”
