Benefits of Day Camps for Children
Learning Activities
Day camps that specialize in arts and crafts are the perfect summer activity. They keep children’s minds stimulated through interactive, creative play while teaching them along the way. Multiple studies have shown that creating art can improve academic performance in reading comprehension, problem-solving, and more. So even though it may seem like they are just playing with some clay, their minds are being creatively prepared for the school days to come.
Personal Development
Kids can explore their growing personalities by creating art. They can explore and discover things like:
- What colors they prefer to use
- What animals they like to make
- What textures they enjoy feeling
- What art styles are their favorite
Creative expression through arts and crafts at a pottery summer camp near you is the perfect way for a developing mind to blossom into something extraordinary.
Social Growth Opportunities
The camps at Kidcreate Studio - Fairfax Station offer a socially stimulating environment that allows children to try new things, get to know other kids their age and creatively practice social skills. Kids go home with lifelong friends, memories and, of course, uniquely magnificent art pieces.
The Joy of
Clay and Pottery Camps
Fine Motor Skills
At a Kidcreate Studio - Fairfax Station pottery summer camp near you, we let kids get their hands a little dirty with clay. Working with clay offers many benefits for children, including improving their fine motor skills. Being able to manipulate the clay with their hands helps develop the muscles in their arms, wrists, and fingers. For our younger students, these same movements will help them get better at buttoning their pants, writing their name, and tying their shoes.
Creating art with clay also improves a child’s hand-eye coordination, which helps with physical activities and even penmanship in school.
Calming Effect
Working with the medium of clay has a calming effect on almost anyone who uses it. If you survey a pottery class, you might notice how quiet it is. That is because the children are engaging with the clay, and their creative mind has taken over. Clay can entertain a child for hours, even those who would be considered high energy. Pottery can even feel therapeutic for a child; the teachers at Kidcreate Studio - Fairfax Station can help the children channel their feelings into clay and work through their big emotions.
Forgiving Art Form
Clay is easy for little fingers to handle and does not create a mess like runny paint or sticky glue. Children working with clay can quickly learn that if they make a mistake or are not happy with their project, they can easily squish their clay back into a ball and start over.
This practice teaches a valuable lesson about problem-solving and helps their self-esteem grow.
Full Creative Allowance
You can create almost anything with clay, and the leaders at Kidcreate Studio - Fairfax Station teach the kids they can do anything they can imagine. Working with clay empowers them to mold and shape whatever they want. At Kidcreate Studio - Fairfax Station we encourage children to fully express themselves through art, which creates a connection to themself and others.

They did a wonderful job hosting my daughter's 5th birthday party. All of the kids had a blast. The instructors walked the kids through the steps to draw and made it easy and fun.
