TEACHING CRAFT FOR KIDS AND ART FOR KIDS AND TEENS
The purpose of this Craft for kids Diploma program for Educators is to introduce students to the theory and practice of Craft for kids and Teens education.
By introducing arts and crafts to the kids and involving them in such activities in schools, parents will invest in building kids cognitive, physical, and social development.
The following are the benefits of arts and crafts classes for kids and teens:
Since most arts and crafts activities consist of moving fingers and hands, they help in developing fine motor skills. Simple actions like holding a paintbrush and coloring with pencils help strengthen muscles and improve their control.
Arts and crafts activities can enhance the children’s dexterity and agility. With the enhancement of fine motor skills and much practice, a child’s manual dexterity, artistic skills, and speed will also increase.
Engaging in activities related to arts and crafts from a very young age leads to a tremendous improvement in hand-eye coordination. This will help a child during later primary school years when she or he is spacing out words or forming letters.
Learn to appreciate art and culture
Through arts and craft curriculum, children learn to value and appreciate artifacts and images across cultures and times. Experience in design, art, and crafts enable them to reflect critically on their own work and those by others. They learn to act and think like designers and artists, working intelligently and creatively. They also learn about the preservation of heritage through art. A lot of the information we have now about people that lived millions of years ago came solely from art.
By engaging in creative pursuits of music and arts and craft lessons, children get the opportunity of expressing themselves in a positive, tangible and meaningful way. They also learn to create artwork on their own.
Participating, with other students in art and craft lessons, gives children a chance to interact with others while sharing common interests. The process of arts and crafts also strengthens parent-child bonding.
Arts and craft lesson activities help instill a sense of achievement and pride in children, boosting their self-confidence.
The opportunity to create whatever a child desire helps foster creativity.
A child will learn to make correct and effective decisions by facing and solving artistic challenges. This helps to develop a problem-solving attitude, which in turn, will help them in the future.
A child learns about new colors and shapes through arts and craft lessons as well as gains familiarity with various figures and patterns. Activities like learning guitar, jewelry making, etc. need visualization and memorization of complex designs in mind.
Arts and crafts lessons not only help in the above traits but also in boosting academic performance. Above all these are activities filled with lots of fun for children.

Crafting includes a variety of art forms, from sculpture and metalwork to knitting and printing. These crafts can all be divided into five basic types based on their form and purpose: textile, decorative, paper, functional, and fashion crafts. These include any type of craft where students work with fabric, yarn, or surface design. Some examples are knitting, quilting, appliqué, weaving, and dyeing. Many of these could obviously also fall into the decorative or fashion crafts categories since the finished goods are often sold as sweaters or wall hangings. However, they are technically textile crafts since they all start with the fabric.
Other examples of textile crafts include the Japanese art of boro, a form of decorative repair that involves combining textiles from different sources. Japanese decorative stitching is known as sashiko. Hand – on experience of the main type of craft techniques.

As the name implies, paper crafts have to do with paper. Many kids get their first introduction to paper crafts in pre-school when they use carved potatoes to hand print designs on construction paper. The grown-up version of this is wood and linoleum engraving. Other paper crafts include papier-mache, calligraphy, and papermaking.

Course Outline:
Furniture making, metalwork, stenciling, stained glass, gilding, spongeware, and basketry all fall into the category of decorative crafts. This category also includes toy making and other arts—anything where the final product is a piece of decor. Unlike fine art, decorative art typically has some element of utility to it. A piece of furniture, for example, may be beautiful in its own right—but its main function is to provide a place to sit.
Combining furniture-making with metalwork is a popular trend. Arts and crafts and home décor magazines often showcase furniture constructed from wood but with metalwork legs or trim. The metalwork tends to be very industrial-looking but there is a good amount of ornate metalwork included as well.

Course Outline:
This craft encompasses all the elements of dressing the human body: jewelry, hats, leatherwork (shoes, belts, handbags), and garments. It will naturally intersect with other craft types since jewelry can be made through metalworking and garments are fabricated by sewing—which can be classified as a textile craft.
Fashion crafts involve a variety of materials, from soft fabrics such as cotton, linen, and wool to sturdier materials such as nylon, canvas, and leather. Sewing is just one part of making a garment; design and construction of clothing is a multi-step process that requires precise technique and careful attention to detail.
This online course is #8 of 10 in our Diploma program.
Course Outline:
Many of the four other types of crafts can also be classified as functional. For example, decorative pottery—including serving platters and utensils—is often made with components that are okay for people to eat from. Many furniture crafts are primarily functional but can also be quite decorative.
Obviously, to attract the widest possible customer base, it’s good to have functionality built into your art or craft. Many times customers who won’t shell out the big bucks for an original creation just because of its good looks will justify the cost because it can also be used in day-to-day life.
