Benefits of Children's Drawing Classes in Chicago (Lakeview)

Here at Kidcreate Studio - Chicago Lakeview, we offer drawing classes for kids, along with painting, pottery and crafting classes. You can choose to register your child for weekly classes, camps, workshops, private classes or even have us host a special event. Whatever your art education needs may be, we are here to provide the solution in the form of a memorable art experience.

Kidcreate Studio - Chicago Lakeview drawing classes for kids are designed to target the developmental needs of children at each stage.

Fine Motor Skills

When children are given the opportunity to use art in their play, as with our drawing classes for kids, they learn and develop multiple skills at once. For example, drawing is uniquely useful in the improvement of fine motor skills. The specialized movements of the hand, wrist and fingers are put to the test every time your child picks up a crayon or pencil and attempts to recreate on paper the image in their mind.

Hand-Eye Coordination

This benefit may be an obvious one, but it is not unimportant. In our drawing classes for kids, as the students attempt to use their hands to draw something that they see with their eye, the development of eye-hand coordination is at work. This connection will serve each child well both academic and athletic pursuits.

Self-Expression

Art is self-expression. This is why art can be such a useful tool for childhood. Self-expression is valuable at any age, but can be especially beneficial to children as they experience new or strong emotions or when faced with the growing pains that come when transitioning from one stage to another. Our drawing classes for kids will give each student the skills they need to feel at ease drawing, allowing for smooth self-expression. This is a gift that may serve a child their whole life long.

Concentration

In a world where a fast-paced life is no longer just experienced by adults, but children too, it is crucial that we find ways to slow down and allow children the opportunity to harness their ability to connect to the present moment and concentrate on a single task. Our drawing classes for kids are the perfect opportunity to accomplish this. Drawing naturally requires a child to focus and concentrate to achieve a completed work of art.

As you can see, the benefits of our drawing classes for kids are far reaching. Kidcreate Studio - Chicago Lakeview’s classes in art education offer a plethora of possible benefits. On the surface, you will see your child glowing with the joy of creation and play! Beneath that fun, you can be sure, there is so much more at work.

Art Exposure For Children

Art education is a gift that will enhance a child’s emotional and physical wellbeing.

All children are innately endowed with the qualities and characteristics of an artist. The strength of a child’s imagination, their desire to explore and express themselves, their need for sensory experiences and their ability to embrace new mediums for play and creativity are all part of a child’s artistic persona. This persona within your child craves art.

Experiences in art through many forms helps children to satiate their need for expression, creation, play and even helps children to make sense of the world around them. Art can be both physically and emotionally balancing for a child. This is why we at Kidcreate Studio - Chicago Lakeview are passionate about creating art classes for children. So don’t hesitate. Give one of our drawing classes for kids a try!

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.

— Allison Bradley, Posted April 3rd 2022 on google

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.
