Kids Knitwork
Knitting is as hip as ever, and learning to crochet is easy even for very young children. Help your child get started by joining one of our summer camps or signing up for beginner’s lessons.
The Benefits of Learning to Knit
If your child has expressed an interest in your latest knitting project, consider teaching him/her the basics of this fun craft. Knitting offers several benefits for children:
-- Knitting gives children self-confidence and a sense of accomplishment. It’s an excellent self-esteem booster.
-- Learning to knit is an educational activity that helps improve special recognition, math skills, design skills, and physical dexterity.
-- Knitting is a calming activity that helps reduce stress. Working on a knitting project is a great way to unwind after a long day.
-- If you’re worried about your child watching too much television, knitting is a constructive alternative activity.
-- When you work on charity knitting projects with your child, you’ll teach him/her about the importance of helping others.
-- Learning to knit is a skill that your child will have for life. Someday, you may even find that your child is teaching his/her own children how to knit.
