A Kids Enrichment Course for All

Children are always hungry for knowledge and thirsty for learning. A kid’s enrichment course is designed to fulfill every kid’s quest for learning. Such courses stimulate the child’s mind with fun-filled structured activities that nurture their intellectual, emotional, social, physical, and cognitive needs. These activities are usually planned and designed during school breaks to allow the children to continue their development even outside the four walls of their own classrooms. An example of a kid’s enrichment course would typically include the following set of activities in a week: Day 1 and 3 – Arts or Structured Play, Day 2 and 4 – Sports or Cooking and Baking, Day 5 – Theatrics, Music, or Reading.

These kids’ enrichment courses are geared to stimulate fun academics in a non-traditional way. Pupils enrolled in these courses will then boost their confidence level while they participate in hands-on related learning skills. Kids with a passion for writing, for instance, will be able to squeeze their creative juices in the writing exercises in course. Others who want to be more athletic or who want to improve their sportsmanship while having fun can find a niche in the sports development course.

How long does the enrichment course last? - It depends on the type of course designed. For instance, most writing classes last for about 8-9 weeks wherein they will be able to feel that writing is a means of self-expression and not a stiff and structured chore. Sometimes, ballgames last for 2 weeks (10-12 days) with the first 8-10 days for the learning and mastery of sports skills and the last 2 days are set for tournaments and competitions to test their abilities among each other. An art enrichment course would also last for about 3-4 weeks with the first 3 weeks developing the basic drawing skills and improving their creative styles. On the last week, the participants can then plan and present their artworks in a culminating activity.

Are these kids enrichment course for free or is there a fee? - These courses are usually not free. There are certain corresponding fees depending on the provider of the course. Such fees are within budget to provide the child with the necessary materials for the course as well as professional fees for the educators. However, most fees are non-refundable so one should decide on which actual activity course their kids should be enrolled in. Certain kids enrichment courses will not allow a complete registration of the child unless full payment is made.

Are the teachers in the kid’s enrichment course competent? - The teachers are professionally competent to do their job as that is what they have been trained for. Most providers of kid’s enrichment course believe that there is learning in doing. Therefore they provide a wide variety of after-school or school break activities that will keep the fire burning in the child’s young mind. These activities that are developed by professionals will create an imprint in the child that will mold them into better citizens and responsible adults in the future.
