Calming the Busy Mind

Give Kids a Superpower
Learning to draw and developing “visual literacy” has broader benefits that help kids succeed academically. Parents know this and demand for Young Rembrandts classes has skyrocketed with waiting lists in some areas.
Brilliant Minds Learn Visually
Not all children learn the same way. Our left-brain dominant kids are comfortable in the world of language. Our right-brain dominant kids thrive in the world of images.

Top 10 Reasons to Draw
Most people think of drawing as a creative outlet. It’s an extra activity for the “creative types”. But that is not true. Drawing has very little to do with creativity. It is about seeing, thinking and sharing oneself. Drawing is a way to explore our thoughts, build our brain and understand the world more effectively.
