abstract = "Creativity is the considered as one of the five key 21st century competencies for the twenty-first century. This research paper aimed to enhance creativity to thirty-two school students{\textquoteright} while interactivity in programming with different robotic sets or tools as part of an informal curricular program. Main goal of these interventions was to nurture primary school students to computer programming skills and develop their problem solving and creativity. Results exemplified students{\textquoteright} personal traits in their creative thinking in specific components of creativity. The paper showed that the methodological development of the educational robotics curriculum strives to utilize creative skills of young students.",
