What to do with your child? Here is an eternal question that sooner or later begins to bother any parent. The indefatigable energy of babies requires an exit, mothers, fathers and home toys become few. In this situation, developing circles for children come to the rescue. Where they are in our capital and which ones, it is said further.
What good mugs are for children
Like everything else in our world, childhood development has its pros and cons. First, let's look at the benefits. First of all, this, of course, is socialization. Indeed, in such developing centers, children study in groups, which means that they learn to build communication. One can argue: the children walk in the yard, communicate with their peers, and therefore, everything is in order with their socialization. Everything is true, but the difference between communicating with yard friends and communicating with children from the developmental group consists precisely in the fact that in the club for children the kids do not just play, but together they do a common thing, they study, they learn new things. Thus, cohesion occurs.
The development of the baby is also an undoubted advantage of such circles. A child learns new information, learns something, discovers the world for himself on the other hand. New friends, attentive and sensitive coaches (as a rule, it is precisely such personnel who work in paid centers and studios), a disposable, free atmosphere - these are also indisputable advantages of circles for children. Also, such developmental circles are good in that they give parents the opportunity to at least briefly relax and go about their business (this, of course, is a plus for parents).
Disadvantages of development circles
First of all, this, of course, is money, that is, the cost of classes. As a rule, it is far from small, especially if the circle is good, has many positive reviews and a reputation. And if a child goes to several sections at once, then this pleasure is generally able to fly a pretty penny to an ordinary average parent.
A significant disadvantage is constant disease. In a circle, as in a kindergarten, one got sick - everyone got sick. Especially if the child is weak and does not have good immunity.
Finally, if you load the kid with various circles and sections on the “I don’t want to” thing (and this is often done by modern parents, believing that the more the better), he will not have time for games, and therefore for childhood.
At what age can you give your child to the "development"
Many parents seek to comprehensively develop their baby from a very young age and record it for dancing, music or in the pool almost at the age of one. Experts believe that this, of course, is too early, because the child has a continuous overabundance of new information and impressions every day. Just looking around and touching objects, he still cognizes the world. Therefore, although there are many different centers where they deal with children even from the age of nine months, it is recommended to send the child to classes no earlier than four to five years. By this moment, one can really understand what the crumbs have inclinations for. In addition, classes should bring pleasure to the baby and arouse genuine interest in him.
The benefits of dance
If the baby is happy to move to the beat to the music, then you can give it to a dance club for children. But will it be of any use? Of course yes! Indeed, thanks to dancing, the load on all muscles and joints is distributed correctly, and most importantly, on the heart. Dancing, in fact, is the same sport, but not so traumatic, but safe, keeping the body in good shape. In the dance, the child can throw out all his emotions, relieve stress, fatigue, forget about the troubles of the past day. Dances contribute to the establishment of proper posture, which is an important, and for many even the most important factor. After all, most of the children in our time suffer from scoliosis. With the help of dancing, the spine is straightened, you can forget about back problems. In addition, a correct gait is formed, which may not be significant for boys, but very significant for girls.
Dances are inextricably linked with music, which means that kids learn not only to listen, but also to hear melodies. Thus their musical ear develops. In addition, dances cheer up the dancer himself and the audience.
Dance clubs in Moscow
What kind of centers and studios are not in our capital! The choice is really huge - for every taste and budget. One of the best, for example, is considered to be an art academy with the high name “Muse”, located on Myasnitskaya Street. The peculiarity of this school is that the teachers in it are the real soloists of the Bolshoi Theater, really high-class masters and professionals. The main direction of this academy is ballet, and they are engaged in it with children from two years and seven months. However, this is not the only dance genre that they are ready to teach in this children's club. Special programs have been developed for children here, allowing them to open up and truly realize their potential.

In general, there are a lot of genres, everyone will find something of their own.
On the Mozhayskoye Highway there is a dance club “Umnichka”, where they take crumbs from two and a half years. They are engaged in dance rhythm, and for older children, various directions are offered: choreography, pop, ballet, house, hip-hop and others. A feature of this center is small groups - a maximum of eight children. The duration of the lesson is designed so that the kids do not get tired, and is about forty-five minutes.
The famous “Todes”, led by Alla Dukhova, also belongs to dance clubs for children - children from four years old take them there.

Classes in the circle are conducted both group and individual, the cost of one is three hundred and fifty rubles.
We develop by drawing
Perhaps all the children at a certain age are trying to draw - some on paper, and some on the walls and on the wallpaper. Not all of them then begin to do this more professionally, and those who begin, what benefit do they derive from these classes?
First of all, painting classes are good for fine motor skills and, thus, for the development of thinking, speech, memory, imagination. In drawing circles for children, kids have the opportunity to get the real result of their work - a real drawing made by themselves. This cannot but inspire and not motivate further success. And with the help of drawing, the child expresses himself and learns purposefulness: it is important not to quit what was started, if something does not work, but to bring it to the end.
It is believed that painting helps to calm and improve mood, therefore it is especially recommended to develop artistic inclinations for children prone to hysteria, neurosis, whims.
Painting circles in the capital
There are also many places for young Dali and Picasso in Moscow. For example, the Samo studio on Krymsky Val. You can bring your baby there when he is three years old. They are engaged in crumbs in groups depending on age, the guys not only draw, but also sculpt, play, learn a variety of techniques. The pleasure of giving the crumbs to this studio is worth a lot - ten two-hour classes will cost parents from eleven and a half to fourteen thousand rubles.
A wonderful drawing group for children with the original name “Flew and Walked” is located near the Dynamo metro station. Children are accepted there from the age of two. In this studio, kids are taught not only to draw, but also to sculpt and craft crafts. For children, they hold master classes, talk about a variety of artists, organize exhibitions.

For two or more - it is not known, but the age at which kids are accepted into the circle is well known - three years.
Sport - is life
The benefits of playing sports are known to all, but it is worth again listing its main advantages. First of all, it should be remembered that children are extremely mobile creatures, they always jump, run, jump, and often during the games it happens that the kids are injured. Sports, no matter what, will give the child the opportunity to move, to pour out energy and eliminate (or at least minimize) the risk of a possible injury.
Sports clubs for children are aimed at the formation of a child’s determination, perseverance, and the will to win. Physical activity trains various muscle groups and makes the heart work actively. The general immunity is strengthened, which means that the baby will be less susceptible to all kinds of diseases. The body becomes hardened, strong and resilient, and the child himself becomes flexible, agile and strong. In addition, playing sports is very good for children who do not know how to keep themselves in check - nervous, quick-tempered, irritable: they teach a crumb restraint, patience, self-discipline.

Not everyone is given to be athletes, dancers and artists. Perhaps someone imagines himself to be a future great artist, which means that this hobby must be encouraged and the kid enrolled in a theater group for children.
