2. What Drama
Education

3. One of kids’ favorite
activities at summer day
camp, drama classes
offer loads of benefits to
kids of all ages.

4. From boosting self-
confidence to learning to
work cooperatively and
improving social skills,
theatrical education is a fun-
filled way to learn and grow.

5. Kids at day camp, after-
school programs and
community theaters make
new friends, develop new
skills and have a great deal of
fun!

6. SUPER SOCIAL BOOST

7. For shy kids in particular, being a
part of a structured social
environment like acting class can
be a huge boost for social skills
and an excellent way to make
friends.

8. Youngsters who tend to hang
back in a more free-wheeling
atmosphere fare much better
when they’re part of an activity
or project where they have an
assigned role.

9. In play production, each actor,
stage hand, writer or prop
person has his own specific role,
making a cohesive and
comfortably social group of kids
working toward a common goal.

10. An activity like summer day
camp acting class might just be
the key to getting your quiet,
retiring youngster to break out of
her shell in a big, happy way.

11. LOADS OF FUN AND SO
MUCH MORE

12. Being a part of a play is an awesome experience
for kids, but while they’re having a blast hamming
it up on stage they’re also:
boosting future academic performance
honing public speaking skills
gaining experience with critical thinking

13. Once your child gets that
coveted role, they need to:
start studying scenes
learning lines
figuring out more
complicated skills like
evaluating their character’s
motivation

14. Additionally, many theater schools and
children’s acting workshops present timeless
classics like Peter Pan or Tom Sawyer, giving
kids a priceless introduction to classic
children’s literature.

15. NOT JUST FOR THE LIFE
OF THE PARTY

16. We tend to think of kids who are into acting as
outgoing and attention-seeking, but even shy
youngsters can benefit from treading the
boards.

17. Kids who start out wanting to hang back as part of the
chorus or a face in the back of the crowd may find
themselves suddenly bitten by the acting bug and hungering
for that break-out role.

18. It’s a great opportunity for personal growth.

19. Even if they never become comfortable on stage front and
center, many kids love being a part of the creative crowd by
learning to work stage lights, build scenery or manage
costumes and props.

20. Some camps, after-school programs and drama schools also
allow kids to write dialogue and stage directions, giving
valuable experience in all aspects of theatrical production.

21. LEARNING TO DEAL
WITH ADVERSITY

22. Even if your child is a natural-born
ham, he won’t necessarily win the
plum role in the school play.

23. Occasional disappointment is
inevitable, and it’s important for kids to
learn how to deal constructively with
the inevitable bumps in the road.

24. Encourage your youngster to ask for
constructive and specific pointers from
teachers and directors on how to
perform better.

25. Learning to accept constructive
criticism can help in all areas of a
kid’s life, from school to social
situations and athletic teams.

26. Youngsters who can work on their
weaknesses in any area can dramatically
increase their potential for success in so
many endeavors.

27. Let your kids enjoy the experience of
drama classes at Maplewood Summer
Day Camp.

28. Experienced staff will keep your child
both safe and busy with arts and crafts,
games, water sports, gymnastics and
more.
