Parents: Long Summer Days With Nothing For Your Kids to Do? Insert ``THE ART OF KNITTING 4 KIDS' in Your DVD Players And Watch: Your Kids Will Get Cr
LOS ANGELES (BusinessWire EON) June 11, 2007 --
Why, you ask? Because knitting has a therapeutic effect on people and it helps them focus, according to Dr. Herbert Benson, author of The Relaxation Response.
For parents in need of creative ways to pull kids away from summer blockbusters and sensory overload, knitting is a great idea.
THE ART OF KNITTING 4 KIDS is an instructional knitting DVD specifically designed to keep youngsters creatively engaged - for several hours at a time.
For parents who are contemplating prescription medication for their child's short attention spans, consider this: Knitting improves concentration, motor skills and encourages creativity (as opposed to the average summer movie).
THE ART OF KNITTING 4 KIDS is designed to educate, entertain and inspire kids ages 5 and older, teaching them to knit by means of three methodologies:
-- Kids Teaching Kids: Children will receive instruction from one of their own, as 7-year-old prodigy Ryan Anderson teaches them to knit, step-by step, in language they will understand.
-- Learning Through Story: Dr. Elizabeth Seward, PhD, entertains children with her unique, animated story "Jane and Jeremy," teaching kids the fundamentals of the craft and while also teaching them to make their own knitting needles.
-- Learning Through Fun: Kids will be inspired and will build their confidence as they knit-along with a third instructor, producer Marcy Levitas Hamilton. With her team of little animated characters, Hamilton shows kids how to knit fun objects of various sizes.
"This is one of the easiest and most enjoyable activities that parents and kids can do together," Hamilton said. "In the time it takes your kids to watch a TV show, they can create something and feel good about it!"
THE ART OF KNITTING 4 KIDS (which is a follow-up to the #1 crafts DVD series currently out on the market, THE ART OF KNITTING 1 & 2) is available online at http://www.amazon.com, http://www.TheArtofKnitting.com, http://www.TheLeisureBoutique.com and at crafts stores nationwide.
