5 Reasons Why After-School Activities are Best

6/27/2016

​After-school activities like attending art classes has fantastic benefits for children. Although there are tons to be learned within the four walls of the classroom, you can help your kids learn even more, develop brand new talents and skills, meet new friends and build their confidence even more with after-school engagements. 

But what exactly can kids benefit from these? We're listing down the top five reasonable ones we have in mind!
Reasons After School Activities are Best

​After-school activities keeps them fit and healthy

While the issue of obesity is more prevalent in other countries, it does not mean we have to take our children's health lightly. The popular combination of the phone (or a computer tablet) and the couch can have striking negative effects to kids when they grow up. But when kids participate in physical after-school activities, they get the exercise they need. It keeps them healthy too and stronger against illnesses. 

Beyond the physical benefits, kids engaged in sports are able to learn how to play within a team, be a good team player, play fair and value cooperation and respect for others. It's truly a win-win combination!

It boosts their creative juices

Art classes where kids can learn how to paint, draw and sketch all inspire creativity. Besides emerging as better artists, kids enrolled in art classes are also known to improve their concentration and focus (especially when tasked to finish large art pieces), harness their problem solving skills, come up with solutions quickly and encourage their innate curiosity. They can better communicate their feelings too with the colors they will choose to use in their artworks - a healthier way for self-expression. 

Through creative art classes, children can also discover and explore their individual talents and feel more confident about themselves. 

A great way to release stress

Although we are more likely to associate stress among adults, kids experience stress too in school. Especially when expectations are so high and peer pressure is so hard to ignore, after-school activities give kids a venue where they can just be themselves, they can do activities in a non-pressure environment and excel at their own pace. 

In these kinds of group settings, kids are encouraged also to shed their shyness and learn social skills through observation and by casually interacting with other kids. 

Helps kids discover what else they can be in this world

Enrolling kids in after-school activities allows them to discover the version of themselves outside school and this is very important in highlighting the fact that our talents also define us - not just our yearly scholastic ratings by our school teachers.

​And with different types of intelligence, activities outside the classroom will allow kids to discover what else they can be in this world and how good they can to be in that place once they get older and make a mark for themselves.   

It teaches skills kids will use all their lives

Enrolling your kids in after-school activities is all worth the effort. They can get to learn life skills like time management where they learn how to prioritize different tasks and commitments. 

It teaches them the skill of contributing their talents and efforts for the improvement of their surroundings and community. This is a very important skill set to learn as you prepare them for life outside academics. 

It also teaches them to set goals and focus on them until it is completed while not being hard on themselves. After-school classes teach kids to achieve goals while having fun. 

See you at Art Smart!
