You might be on the fence about putting your child into a saturday morning club or a kids club of any kind, however, there are a range of benefits that can come from this! Keep reading to find our 4 benefits of kids clubs and child activities that you might be forgetting about.
Making Friends & Socialising
This may seem pretty obvious, but socialising and making friends is extremely important for your child. It’s a really good way for your children to gain self-confidence and see the value in working and talking to others.
Finding other children with things in common will also be a good confidence booster, and they can talk, learn and support each other together.
Letting Off Steam
You might notice that your child is having a hard time with school or nursery, coming home frustrated or upset. And, putting them in an afterschool club could be a good way for them to socialise, feel more confident and let off some steam to improve their mood.
Giving them something positive to focus on after a long or hard day might be just what they need to distract themselves.
Independence
Putting your child into a kids club of some kind will give them more structure to their days, aside from the regular parts of their routine such as nursery or school. But, a Saturday morning club for example, will help them remember they have something to get up for, adding more structure and things to do into their week.
It’s also a brilliant way to help them gain more independence. Aside from school or nursery, a kids club is a good place for them to meet new children, and spend a part of their day socialising outside of academic situations.
Academic Learning
With better confidence outside the classroom, this might help your child to feel more confident in the classroom. Kids clubs can help your child feel more open to trying new things, and this can translate to academic settings too.
After school clubs can also help your child work through homework tasks, and provide extra support so that they can feel more confident in their learning.
