In the book “The Artful Parent: Simple Ways to Fill Your Family’s Life with Art & Creativity’ author Jean Van’t Hul states:
▶ Educators tell us that art encourages fine motor skills, neural development, and problem-solving abilities and that it can be used effectively to teach and understand other key subjects such as reading, writing, math, and science.
▶ Therapists tell us that art is valuable because it allows children to process their world, to deal with sometimes scary emotions in a safe way, and because it gives them critical sensory input.
▶ Artists tell us that art is important for its own sake—as a source of beauty and expression, as well as simply for the process of creating.
▶ Kids tell us that art is fun, an activity they enjoy.
▶ Parents tell us that art is vital to their families because it keeps everyone engaged and happy and helps with the sometimes difficult transitions of the day.
