The Benefits of Arts and Crafts

Art programs are an excellent extracurricular activity for young children, thanks to the following benefits:

Art is an incredible teaching tool and helps young children express their unique selves. With colorful construction paper, messy paints, and molding clay, children can explore their imaginations. While other academic disciplines are rigid, the arts are free-flowing. This allows children to form their own ideas, make connections, and take risks. This type of creativity opens doors in the mind, setting children up for enhanced learning.

The enhanced cognition that creativity fosters allows children to quickly develop important skills.

  • Language and Literacy
    Creative expression is a way for children to tell their own stories, drawing, painting, or molding their ideas. These connections are important for later language development and advanced reading skills.
  • Problem-Solving
    As your child explores different art forms and mediums, critical thinking and problem-solving skills are being honed. Art and craft projects are full of experimentation!
  • Fine and Gross Motor Skills
    Manipulating pens, paints, markers, and more develop your child’s fine and gross motor skills. Crafts like molding and sculpting and materials such as yarn, pipe cleaners, and paper mache teach dexterity, control, and coordination.

Thanks to the boost in cognition and skill development that creative learning provides, children exposed to early art education exceed academically. Studies have shown that creative learning improves school performance in reading, writing, interpretation, science and math.

Art programs allow children of similar ages to meet, play, and socialize in healthy ways. Watching one another express their inner creativity also leads to positive communication and empathy skills. Additionally, the problem-solving skills that creativity teaches help children to solve interpersonal problems in a healthy way.

As young children learn to express their unique imagination and creativity, they gain confidence that boosts their self-esteem. At Kidcreate Studio - Dana Point, we always send children home with "fridge-worthy" masterpieces so they can show off their artwork to family members! Sharing artwork with family members is another way that children can boost their confidence in their unique abilities.

Early art exposure enhances appreciation of the arts and cultural themes for young children. Parents can further encourage this interest with trips to museums, art galleries, and theaters.

Besides all these academic benefits, the arts are enriching. The feeling you get when you look at your favorite painting or read a book by your favorite author - these are just two examples of how art can change a life for the better. Children that experience creativity from a young age will lead happier, healthier lives.

— Candice White, Posted February 23rd 2025 on google
This was by far the best decision we made for hosting my daughter’s birthday. Everything ran smoothly and it was so nice to have time to mingle with parents instead of doing everything myself. I can’t recommend having a party here enough. Worth every penny, even when they’re tight!

My daughter had her birthday party here and loved it! I was most impressed by the staff who was extremely helpful and kind! I was a little worried since we only had 15 minutes for the setup but they already had some balloons and a cute birthday sign setup. They also helped me to setup and take down all of my decoratio...

Kidcreate Studio did a mobile party at my house for my daughter's 7th birthday. We had a big group of 15 kids and the two teachers from KidCreate did a wonderful job. The owner delivered tables and chairs that we rented from them before our party started and picked them up after the party was over. They are fantastic a...

Our 9-year old daughter really wanted to do something art and crafty for her birthday, and we weren't quite happy with other OC south county art-related businesses. From the moment we started communicating with Kidcreate the communication was great. On the day of the event the staff was very aware of our needs, accom...

Kidcreate has become our favourite place over the last 12 months and I couldn’t recommend it enough! We stumbled upon Kidcreate before it opened (pre COVID) and signed up our daughter for a trial for their opening. The pandemic hit and Kristen (the owner) and her team have been incredible to ensure each little artist...

Kristin and her team of creators are awesome! They were able to accommodate a very last minute decision for a private party, and they delivered a great experience! Facilities were clean and covid compliant. Cant wait to check out more of their fun classes they have for the kiddos!

My kids and I absolutely love this Art Studio! They beg me to go back every week! I love all the themes they come up and the multiple was to create art based on that theme. My kids so far have painted, sculpted, colored, glued, cut and made some fun foam! The owner and all the other art teachers there are so friendly, ...

Have gone to the Kid Create Dana Point studio a few times and have loved it. My 2 yo son loves making art and the stories that go along with it. Well paced and easy enough for him to follow along. Hoping they open a studio in San Diego too!
