How the development of children could benefit from painting by numbers.

Painting by numbers is not simply a hobby and stress-relieving exercise for adults; it can also be a beneficial activity to aid in the development of young children. A canvas with pre-printed numbers will always reliably guide everyone throughout their project. Every set comes with paints and brushes, so it's easy to start painting as soon as you open it - even better for kids, no waiting around to start!

 

A healthy activity

In the age of gadgets, when kids unhealthily spend a lot of their spare time in front of the TV or on a tablet, it can be very challenging to keep them entertained. Not just something that would positively benefit them, but also something exciting, something that would get their creative juices flowing. Boys and girls alike may find painting by numbers will become their favourite creative pastime.

Support and development of motor skills

Painting by numbers teaches children how to use various tools and colours - as well as how to coordinate their movements. It won't matter if they don't aim as accurately as they should because that's what the painting activity is for. Children's motor skills are markedly improved when they paint by numbers.

Unwinding and reducing tension

Even children can unwind and relax entirely by painting in a relaxed manner and paying just enough attention. This is an opportunity that is not available in every kid's activity.

Improving concentration

Concentration is fundamental when painting.  Children are often goal-oriented and hungry for praise, so they will try their utmost to produce a perfect painting and ensure that their artwork turns out as it should. A frequent motif for painting by numbers is animals.

Joint activity

No one has to accomplish this pastime alone; it can actually be done within a wider circle. With parents, grandparents, or friends, kids can paint together, even use the same painting project to compare the outcomes afterwards!

Dealing with unexpected situations

When a child makes a mistake, for many of them their entire world is instantly obliterated. Painting by numbers teaches kids that anything can be fixed, and not just by painting over mistakes!

Picture suggestions

When they feel a connection to the subject, children are more likely to dive into their painting. These could, for instance, be artwork depicting their favourite fairy-tale characters or animals. Older youngsters will unquestionably favour painting characters from Frozen, Harry Potter, Marvel, or numerous cars with painting by numbers.

The excitement of younger kids will undoubtedly be sparked by their favourite animal, be it a dog, cat, teddy bear, or horse; for girls - perhaps - unicorns, bunnies, creatures from the zoo or water world, and many other similar subjects.
