 4 Ways You Can Grow Your Child’s Creativity Using Valentine’s Day

Kids from all over the world have one thing in common – they love to color and draw – Some better than others.   A smaller percentage is truly headed for some great opportunity if we can keep him or her on the path led by art.  It is difficult to let go of talented art students, but many start to lose interest.

Has your child lost that spark in their eyes around their arts and creativity?  Many times children who were once

very interested in arts & crafts, drawing or painting will put it down walking away for whatever reason.

If this is your child, and you know for certain they are gifted artists, please do not allow them to walk away from god-given gifts.  Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, and it’s the perfect opportunity to remind our children that the world needs their gifts.

Valentine’s Day, also known as the Feast of Saint Valentine or simply Saint Valentine’s Day falls on February 14th and celebrated all around the world.  It originated as special recognition for the saint Valentinus but now has become the 3rd largest holiday of the year second to Christmas and Mother’s Day in the United States, where the celebration is a huge cultural, religious and materialistic outward expression of agape and romantic (eros) love.

For kids, it’s not so much about romantic love, but no doubt a great time to show a little love to our children all while teaching them how to care and express love others. Valentine’s Day Crafts are a great way to re-introduce your artistic child to his or her innate gifts.

    Hey there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with?
    I’m looking to start my own blog soon but I’m having a difficult time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your layout seems different
    then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
    P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had
    to ask!
