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 - Chicago Lakeview, 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.

Had my kid's birthday party here, it was wonderful! The process was very smooth and easy. The kids had a blast, the staff were wonderful, and we will definitely plan on coming back for some fun art classes. Highly recommended!

I needed this today! For $55 Eli got to spend 9AM-12PM doing various projects to celebrate New Year's Day 2024. There were two helpers Katy and Ms. Ciera (sp?) who helped Eli get acclimated as he was crying and asking me to stay. They let me sit with him for a bit to help him calm down. Projects included paper crown,...

KidCreate Studio was the best birthday party decision we could have made for our toddler. They made it SO easy to schedule, have hundreds of art projects to choose from, and were fantastic dealing with 20+ four-year-olds. Thank you for an incredible birthday party!

My daughter runs into the studio. Teachers are great! Wonderful experience

An absolute perfect place for a five-year-old birthday. It was so helpful to not have to worry about the details - Alison and team handled everything; all we did was show up with our child and food. The group had a blast - the teachers kept them super engaged. We plan to send him back for camp in the summer.

Kidcreate was a perfect spot for our first "birthday party with friends!" The staff was patient and engaging with a group of 8 toddlers. Even the parents enjoyed the experience! Would definitely recommend especially if you don't have the space to host at your condo.

We had my son's 4th birthday party at Kidcreate in Lakeview and the children had a blast! I'm so glad I picked the clay Mickey / Minnie Mouse project because the children LOVED working with a material they don't usually get experience with everyday at preschool. The parents all told me how much fun their children had a...

We had our 4 year old's birthday party at Kidcreate and it was wonderful!! All the kids (aged 4-11) loved it. The staff took care of everything. There is a small area for parents (so most parents dropped off), which was nice to have snacks and chat. The Gift Cups were also great! Wonderful party from start to finish.
— Payal Adhikari, Posted December 14th 2021 on google
Kidcreate was a great experience! My 7 year old loved having her birthday party there. It was also a nice, calm activity for everyone to do so it didn't get a bunch of kids crazy. Everyone had a wonderful time and the staff was super helpful and great at engaging the kids.
— Jennifer Riek, Posted November 21st 2021 on google
My daughter celebrated her 6th birthday here with her friends. We had around 18 kids all between ages 5-6. The kids had a great time painting and paying with slime. The staff was awesome and very accommodative. So glad we chose this place.
