Many domestic and abroad researches have proved the creativity of school children can be improved through teaching processes. Therefore, how to provide appropriate teaching modes is critically important. This study attempts to formulate a set of teaching methods availably linking to school curricula with the creativity of children effectively enhanced. In the early research stage, through expert interviews, we can understand the connotation and teaching methods for traditional curricula to cultivate creativity. The planning for the contents of new curricula is mainly based on "design thinking". 3D printing is served as the practical technologies and the fifth graders from primary schools are recruited as experimental testees. Through practical teaching tests, it is available to understand whether the contents of curricula will influence the creativity of school children. In the early experiment stage, school children are guided into the realm of 3D printing technology through experiential methods. During the learning processes of curricula, it is found when school children facing novel media and tools, this technology are advantaged with the function to continually attract the learning focus from school children. The formal experimental contents are mainly composed of task-based learning and they are further accompanied with new media guiding students to explore problems and materialize ideas. Finally, through expert evaluation, between new and traditional teaching courses, the difference performed by school children is compared. As it is found from experimental results, school children show longer concentration during the learning processes when they receive new curricula. In view of the evaluated result of learning output, the performance arisen from new curricula is better than that from old curricula.
