Kidcreate Studio - Alexandria states that Kidcreate art classes are a way to introduce children to the visual arts in a positive, self-esteem building environment, with curriculum designed to meet the unique developmental needs of each age group. The program notes that its energetic toddler classes keep little ones moving and engaged, preschool classes nurture independence and confidence, and school-age classes spark imagination and creativity. It also states that art teaches math, science, history and creativity, that art education has a measurable positive impact on academics, and that creating art can validate the uniqueness of a child and support a sense of accomplishment and self-worth. The program further states that artistic activities promote growth in positive social skills such as self-confidence, self-control, conflict resolution, collaboration, empathy and social tolerance, and that visual arts have been shown to improve writing, reading skills, interpretation of text, reasoning about scientific images and reading readiness. Reasoning ability, intuition, perception, imagination, inventiveness, creativity, problem-solving skills and expression are listed by the program as thought processes associated with the study of the arts. The studio also notes that many customers describe their favorite time of the week as when they drop kids off at Kidcreate Studio for an hour or more of guilt-free “me-time.”
