About Us
| Our Mission & History CREATIVITY IS KEY AT KIDS CREATIONS! KIDS CREATIONS, Arts & Crafts, LLC. was created with the desire to provide a fun, creative and welcoming environment to help children- Explore & Build their Imagination! We are not a franchise or chain of any sort. Kids Creations is privately owned and operated by a wonderfully caring elementary art teacher/mom. Staffed with only the most creative college art ed students- your children are in great hands at all times! LETS ALL LEARN & HAVE FUN TOGETHER!! We try to instill the freedom and comfort to experiment with a variety of different art mediums while stimulating the imagination and comfort to create from ones own sense of artistic abilities. We provide lots of encouragement for your little one to come up with their own great ideas and each art project is tailored to the needs and levels of the children attending the class! No pressure for perfection here! We lend a helping hand or set of directions toward opening the imagination, learning basic techniques and expanding our knowledge and skill base as we create each project together! We do not want to stifle the creative and blossoming mind of our young children! Sometimes we do not realize how simple phrases such as "What is that" can deeply impact a child creativity and self-esteem. Rather we should say, "Tell me about your painting, how you did it, etc... Nurture open questioning. We must believe in the importance of art and its developmental process. The development of a child depends on the openness and willingness to express their inner worlds! Scribble is a VERY IMPORTANT stepping stone to writing, drawing, reading, etc... FIND A SMALL AMOUNT OF TIME EVERYDAY FOR ART IN YOUR CHILD'S ROUTINE Please consider how problem solving and creative approaches to any given situation stem from the arts and are vital to the development of our children who will one day become our future leaders! ******************************************************************************************************************** OUR HISTORY KIDS CREATIONS, Arts & Crafts, LLC. started as a home-based business in 2004 providing private art lessons and craft classes to young children. The very popular Craft & Entertainment Parties started at this time as well! Our new Deer Park facility was opened quickly due to overwhelming requests for a more commercial location. Although our space is cozy it is big enough to house some pretty wonderful parties and really creative art classes! We are so thankful for this opportunity to expand our art based knowledge and really get our hands dirty in such an amazing and comfortable atmosphere- As our Kids Creations family grows so will we one day!
