This is achieved by preparing different and active situations by increasing motivation and developing their thinking.<br> <strong>Objectives. </strong>The purpose of the study was to design a program using the six thinking hats strategy and to identify its effects on creative thinking and some of the gymnastic skills, namely handstands (HS), forward rolls (FR), and backward rolls (BR) of primary school students.<br> <strong>Methods. </strong>The researchers used the experimental method with 50 students who were randomly divided into two groups, namely an experimental group (n = 25, age = 11.24 &plusmn; 0.60 years, height = 143.24 &plusmn; 2.29 cm, weight = 42.44 &plusmn; 2.29 kg, IQ = 18.36 &plusmn; 0.64 scores) and a control group (n = 25, age = 11.24 &plusmn; 0.66 years, height = 143.80 &plusmn; 3.62 cm, weight = 42.36 &plusmn; 2.56 kg, IQ = 18.48 &plusmn; 0.59 score). The homogeneity between the two groups was calculated, and the results revealed that there were no differences between the two samples. Concerning the research variables, the educational program was applied twice per week for eight weeks.<br> <strong>Results.</strong> The proposed education program using the six thinking hats strategy had a more positive effect on the development of creative thinking and some of the gymnastic skills being researched for primary school students than did the traditional program, with statistically significant differences in the creative thinking scale of 17.04%. The gymnastic skills that were studied, namely handstands (HS), frontward rolls (FR), and backward rolls (BR) had a relative difference of 74.47 - 108.48%, P<0.005. The differences in the improvement rates for all the variables were in favor of the experimental group.<br> <strong>Conclusion. </strong>Therefore, the proposed educational program using the six thinking hats strategy had a positive effect on the creative thinking and gymnastic skills of the primary school pupils, which resulted in a statistically significant difference in the subsequent tests in favor of the experimental group.</div> Six Thinking Hats Strategy, Creative Thinking, Gymnastic Skills, IQ 0 0 http://aassjournal.com/browse.php?a_code=A-11-1933-5&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Khairi Mahmoud H Al-Sababha Kalsababha@kfu.edu.sa 100319475328460013236 100319475328460013236 Yes Department of Physical Education, College of Education, King Faisal University, Al-Ahsa, Saudi Arabia
