Colours speak a language more universal and archetypal than any spoken word. We communicate non-verbally when we speak and hear color. The color medium that is closest to pure colored light is transparent watercolor, therefore wet-on-wet watercolor is the medium of choice for painting with younger children.

Information on Art Classes for Kids

Are art classes for your kid(s)?

Do your children love painting and drawing?
They might enjoy going to art classes and learning new creative skills. Art classes can give your child the opportunity to try a number of creative kids activities including pottery, craft, drawing and painting which they might not get to try at home or school.
Some of the benefits include:

  • A chance to express creativity and enhance creative thinking
  • Improves fine motor skills which can help with tasks like writing
  • Develops an interest in art
  • Improves focus and concentration which can help academically
  • Can boost kids’ self esteem and give them a feeling of accomplishment

Is your child the active type? If he or she has difficulty sitting still and concentrating, they might prefer more physical activities for kids including sports or dance. Art classes are great for quieter children who enjoy sitting and focusing for a reasonable period.

Arts and crafts can be done at home from any age. Even very young babies can enjoy finger painting but formal art classes generally start around age 3 and can continue as after school programmes or extracurricular courses throughout childhood.

If your child is about to go to their first art classes, make sure they are wearing old clothes that, you don’t mind them getting dirty and preferably a painting smock. You may need to provide equipment or art supplies so it is always a good idea to check with your child’s teacher.
