Creativity has been an area of interest and research for many years for many educators, psychologists, and specialists in this field. The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between the level of creativity of third-grade students and their ability to objectively evaluate other people's creative products. The study involved 135 third-grade students. Respondents completed questionnaires to measure creative talents, including the TCT-DP Test (Version A and Version B) and a presentation of creative works (TCT-DP) for objective evaluation by the child. The research I conducted shows that the vast majority of third-grade students demonstrate an average level of creative talent. The relationship between the level of creative talent and the ability to evaluate other people's creativity appears only within the sample I studied. This work can become an important source of information for students of early childhood and preschool education, for professionals working with children, and for parents. In addition, it offers excellent material for reflecting on one’s own level of creativity.
