Treasure of Artwork

Each session of KiddieArts allows the student to TAKE home a new creation every time. The curriculum is structured in a way to ensure that the child never returns home empty handed from the class. The child will always have a fresh piece of self created artifact to carry to its place and flaunt to his parents and friends.

As the students of KiddieArts learn to make something new in each and every class, they are happy to TREASURE all their artwork and decorate their homes. These exhibits in their homes continue to inspire their artistic instincts. This treasure helps enhance the knack for creativity and innovation among the children.

Kids gain immense confidence when they SHARE their artistic knowledge with their peers. Self-made objects of art learnt at KiddieArts allow the kids to gift or share it with friends and show them their love. These giving away of presents not only has a personal touch, with a high level of satisfaction but also imbibes the quality of sharing.

So, KiddieArts make sure that Kids

They Make it.     They Take it.        They Treasure it       They Share it.

DIVULGE INNER ANXIETY

Handwriting divulges  kids’ inner anxiety

According to an some article in one of the news paper that Handwriting reveals kids’ inner anxiety.

At least 10 to 15% of the kids in a classroom are suffering from attention-related disorders, aggression and other psychological issues...currently.  School counselors have started linking such psychological aberrations with handwriting saying that the way kids write often reveals their innermost turmoil.”

It has therefore become important for schools and teachers that they should spot the problems in the child’s handwriting and seek remedies from experienced graphologists and handwriting experts.

Ms. (X) in her article says, “It's a complex situation and starts from the primary stage with bad handwriting. Children from the kindergarten stage are mandatory put through a handwriting regimen, first through pattern drawing and then formation of letters and cursive writing. This follows an international format certified by the UNICEF which should help them develop a legible, if not beautiful, handwriting by the time they are well into the primary stage. But, typically, there would be some kids, about seven to eight in a class of 45, who are not be able to grasp these techniques, not because of a learning disorder but because of they are suffering from deep psychosomatic disorders. Kids are divided into two categories Y2 and Y6 for this. The former indicates kids who are about seven years old and the latter are for those who are 11 years old. By the time they reach the Y2 stage, kids should be able to display a certain threshold of handwriting consistency, though the desired neatness happens at the Y6 stage. Children, who are still sloppy after Y6, are naturally displaying inner disturbance and need immediate psycho mapping and therapy, it is believed.”
