Supermodel Heidi Klum says children should be given the freedom of doing whatever they want.

Klum, 40, is mother of four children- Leni, 9, Henry, 7, Johan, 6 and Lou, 3, with her ex-husband Seal. She feels children have the capability of trying something new, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I think kids need to get their hands dirty - to paint, sculpt, create - in order to express themselves. As adults we're told we need to colour inside the lines, but I don't think you should ever tell a child that. Let them scribble-scrabble like crazy and see what comes out," Klum told Parents magazine.

"Creativity is about trying something new," she added.
