The Importance of Arts in Children’s Development

Arts education is an important component of any child’s development because it teaches teamwork, analytic, and creative skills. These skills are often left out of traditional curricula that emphasize technical skills, such as math and science, to prepare students for undergraduate degrees, master’s degrees, and even Ph.D.s in a rewarding field of study. This leaves children little room for individual expression and a chance to work on personal development and concentration.

Art can also help children work out any frustrations in their lives by offering a healthy, expressive medium. In addition, exposure to art and the chance to develop their own art provides children with a more diversified experience that can help them in the classroom as well, allowing them for more opportunities for an enhanced learning experience. In the classroom art education is a crucial component for a child’s personal development. Several studies have concluded that art education is very important at a young age, because children are still developing their critical thinking and problem solving skills. Students also have the opportunity to fine-tune their motor skills through art. The cognitive processes involved in learning to draw accurately, choose the right colors and shapes, and create detailed work help children develop the motor skills associated with these tasks. In terms of musical arts, students are able to use their knowledge of musical notes and translate that into math skills.
