Art help kids express what they cannot express verbally. Kids may develop their artistic side while getting involved in arts and crafts, while video games and electronic gadgets might just hide the true talent of a child.

Art enhances the concept of concentration and dedication. There is never a bad art, it doesn't matter if a child cannot draw or anything, art is simply having fun, nothing beats the enjoyment art can give.
