The arts give your child a chance to shine and express themselves. Sadly, the arts are being cut from our schools, so we need to supplement this opportunity even more so for our children. As a former public elementary teacher, I can confirm that kids who are involved in the arts–music, dance, drama, art, do better academically across the board. It also gives them a chance to play and learn through play! These students go on to become more active and engaged citizens.
Outdoor Art
One quick trick to inspire your young artist, or even the artist in you, is to sit outside with paper, a brush and some paints in primary colors for mixing. Enjoy the process!
