For kids as young as 3 years, dancing can facilitate easy play, development of hand and eye coordination and can even be a great educational experience.
- Helps to develop social skills: No matter which dance form you choose, whether it is Bharatnatyam, Kuchipudi or even Ballet, your child will get to interact with various other kids of the same age group and this will help him develop his social skills and increase his interactive abilities.
- Increases self-esteem and confidence: One of the biggest benefits of learning to dance is that it helps one develop higher self-esteem and confidence. This is especially important for young growing kids. It is also a great way to bringing discipline into your child's life.
