“Grow and Evolve Together.”
In the UAE, parents are doing everything they can to provide their children with the best life possible in today’s fast-paced environment. However, in the rush, they occasionally forget how important it is to spend time with their children, both to strengthen the connection between their children and themselves and to appreciate the little joys and moments that are so important for their growth and development.
Pottery is a very popular, fun, and enjoyable activity to strengthen relationships with your children. It would be easier for you to understand your children better if you participate in family group sessions of pottery making, which will enhance their imagination and motor skills. The following are some advantages to attend family group sessions for pottery taught by master potters.
1.Enhances mental health
In a pottery class, interacting with a small group of people—especially face-to-face interaction as opposed to digital screens—significantly lowers the risk of developing depression, anxiety, and other mental illnesses. Being physically present with loved ones fosters a powerful emotional support system that will carry you through the difficulties of life.
2.Helps kids achieve academic success
Children who spend more time with their parents perform better in school. They pick up communication techniques as well as the value of education. The family can spend some quality time talking about their days while taking family group sessions on pottery.
3.Reduces the chance of behavioral issues
Children who spend more time with their families are less likely to have behavioral problems like violence and drug usage. Teamwork in activities like pottery making also releases pent-up emotions that would otherwise result in unhealthy choices. A child (or teenager) will be better able to deal with issues and make wise decisions if they feel safe coming to you for a listening ear and advice.
4.Enhances one’s confidence
Everyone in the family gains confidence by participating in pottery-making classes together. Parents can help their kids develop their self-esteem by teaching them certain abilities like communication and problem-solving. They can serve as role models for how to value oneself without demeaning others.
5.Assists children in developing future parenting abilities
Children will want to establish the same warm environment in their future homes as a result of the memories you make while participating in pottery-based family group sessions. Your children pick up crucial caregiving skills from you that they can apply in the future.
6.Teaches conflict resolution techniques
Being a family is enjoyable, but it can also be challenging. You can’t just leave a conflict when it starts. Since you are all in this together, you must cooperate to find solutions to the problems that arise. While taking pottery lessons, families can learn interpersonal communication skills, such as positive, healthy methods to discuss and solve problems.
7.Encourages tolerance and flexibility
A strong family link formed during pottery classes substantially enhances your capacity to handle life’s changes and difficulties. It gives life meaning and purpose to know that you are loved, cared for, and needed.
8.Improves physical health
Spending time with the family while making pottery might benefit physical health as well. When you are emotionally healthy and get out of your comfort zone, it plays a role in enhancing immune, hormonal, and cardiac health. In this way, families can support one another in continuing to lead healthy lifestyles.
